Hunichen Wins One Before Break

Level 30 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Both Chris Hunichen and Uri Reichenstein put 480,000 chips in pre-flop and the pair checked the {2-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{k-Spades} flop.

Hunichen bet 550,000 on the {q-Clubs} turn and Reichenstein called.

The river was the {j-Diamonds} and Hunichen bet 775,000.

"I have king-ten," said Reichenstein. "Such a shit run out." Without any time extensions, the clock hit zero and his hand was dead.

Andreas Berggren opened to 350,000 and Uri Reichenstein defended his big blind. The Israeli check-called 200,000 on the {q-Spades}{9-Spades}{3-Hearts} flop but check-folded to a bet of 575,000 on the {j-Diamonds} turn.

The very next hand, Reichenstein limped in the small blind and Berggren checked his big blind.

The flop was {10-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{4-Spades} and Reichensten check-called 160,000, but check-folded to a bet of 600,000 on the {q-Spades} turn.

Level 30 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Pablo Melogno
Pablo Melogno

The action folded to Uri Reichenstein in the small blind who announced all in. Pablo Melogno was in the big blind with around 1,500,000 and made the call for his tournament life.

Uri Reichenstein: {7-Hearts}{4-Hearts}
Pablo Melogno: {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}

The flop fell {7-Spades}{6-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} and Reichenstein took the lead with a pair of sevens. The rollercoaster ride was just beginning as Melogno hit the {k-Clubs} on the turn to make a pair of kings. Reichenstein, though, spiked the {4-Spades} on the river to make two pair and Melogno was ousted in fourth place.

Level 30 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Pablo Melogno limped in from the button which invited Andreas Berggren to come along from the small blind. Chris Hunichen made it 600,000 to go from the big blind and Melogno called.

The flop came {8-Hearts}{5-Spades}{4-Clubs} and both players checked to the {10-Spades} on the turn. Hunichen fired out a bet of 775,000 and Melogno called to see the {8-Diamonds} on the river.

Andreas Berggren: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Tibor Nagygyorgy: {a-Hearts}{6-Hearts}

The dealer spread the flop of {10-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} and Berggren flopped a full house to nearly wrap up the pot. The {2-Clubs} on the turn spelled the end to Nagygyorgy's run and the {5-Hearts} on the river was just a formality.
