Sorainen Doubles Through Myers

Livello 26 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

After a middle position raise from Daniel Myers, Luka Sorainen moved all in for 480,000 from the cutoff. Myers called to put him at risk.

Luka Sorainen: K♥Q♥ All in
Daniel Myers: J♠J♦

The A♦9♦4♣ flop was safe for Myers, as was the 7♥ turn, but the Q♦ on the river drilled Sorainen, giving him a much-needed double-up before break

Livello 26 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Tomasz Krzesinski opened from under the gun to 100,000 and Rania Nasreddine called on the button. Govert Metaal also came along from the big blind.

They saw a monotone flop of 7♦5♦3♦ which checked around to the A♠ turn. Metaal led out for 150,000, which both Krzesinski and Nasreddine called.

A 4♣ on the river made the board a little scarier but Metaal didn't seem worried as he bet 205,000. Krzesinski folded, then Nasreddine quickly called.

Metaal showed 4♠2♠ for a straight, and Nasreddine mucked her two pair holding A♦5♥.

Livello 26 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

David Coleman raised to 100,000 from middle position and Yurii Zabrodotskyi called, in the hijack.

The Q♦10♠K♥ flop slowed down Coleman as he elected to check-call a bet of 75,000 from Zabrodotskyi.

The 3♠ turn checked through to the 9♥ river. Coleman checked again and Zabrodotskyi fired out for 250,000. Coleman tanked before check-raising to 650,000. Zabrodotskyi snap-called. Coleman rolled over J♥10♣ for a straight, eventually chopping the pot with Zabrodotskyi as he showed Q♣J♣.

Jack Kiriakus Eliminated in 21st Place (€43,200)

Livello 26 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

A full board of 10♠K♠5♠2♦3♥ was showing and all of the chips were in the middle of the table in a pot between Jack Kiriakus & Fabiano Kovalski.

Kiriakus had Q♥10♥ for a flopped pair of tens but was behind to the turned set of Kovalski, who had 2♠2♣. That pot sent Kovalski's stack toward the 7,000,000 mark, and left Kiriakus on the rail.

Livello 26 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Luka Sorainen was down to just over five big blinds when he moved all in for his last 265,000 from the hijack.

No one could find a hand to call with and he picked up the blinds and antes.

Following the next elimination is a pay jump to €51,800, so play has tightened up significantly in the middle stages of this level with several short stacks hoping to earn at least an extra €8,600.
