Fatehi Doubles Through Altergott

Level 6 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Max Altergott defended his big blind against a raise by Ali Reza Fatehi and the latter was all in and at risk for his last 33,700 on the {8-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{5-Hearts} flop. Altergott quickly called with {8-Clubs}{8-Spades} for top set while Fatehi had plenty of outs with the {K-Hearts}{6-Hearts}.

The {3-Diamonds} turn was a blank, but Fatehi improved to a flush on the {9-Hearts} river to double.

Luca on Board

Level 6 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Ivan Luca signed up not long ago and called a raise of Jean-Noel Thorel, while Ali Reza Fatehi on the button also came along. On the {Q-Spades}{5-Hearts}{3-Hearts} flop, Thorel checked and Luca bet 3,300. Fatehi moved all in and that forced two quick folds.

Soon after a raise by Fatehi from the hijack and Thorel defended his big blind. Thorel checked and called a bet of 5,600 by Fatehi on the {9-Spades}{5-Spades}{4-Diamonds} flop, the {A-Diamonds} turn was checked through. Thorel bet the {K-Diamonds} river for 10,000 and Fatehi folded.

Martin Kabrhel
Martin Kabrhel

Picking up the action on the {9-Spades}{6-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{4-Hearts} turn, Jean-Noel Thorel checked out of the big blind and Martin Kabrhel bet 16,000. Thorel moved all in almost immediately and Kabrhel asked the dealer to spread the pot. There were around 25,000 in the middle and Kabrhel had 59,200 behind.

"Sometimes you have to gamble," Kabrhel said and called.

Martin Kabrhel: {A-Hearts}{5-Hearts}
Jean-Noel Thorel: {4-Spades}{3-Diamonds}

The {Q-Clubs} on the river was a blank and Kabrhel was eliminated for a second time, he won't be returning to the tables as all players agreed upon a single re-entry only.

Shak Wins Flip to Bust Adams

Level 5 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Dan Shak raised to 4,000 on the button and Dominik Nitsche called in the small blind. Timothy Adams three-bet to 16,500 in the big blind and Shak moved all in, Nitsche folded. Adams called for around 132,000 and was barely covered as Shak had a stack of 135,000.

Timothy Adams: {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Dan Shak: {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}

Shak paired up on the {K-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{7-Spades} while Adams picked up a ton of outs on the {J-Clubs} turn. However, the {2-Hearts} on the river was a blank and Adams headed straight to the cashier to buy in for his second bullet.

Small Pot for Mateos

Level 5 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Adrian Mateos raised to 3,500 from the hijack and Max Altergott called on the button. The flop fell {J-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{6-Spades} and a bet of 4,000 did the trick for Mateos. Altergott got the chips back the next hand when his raise from the cutoff was called by Felipe Ramos, who check-foplded the {Q-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{6-Spades} flop to a continuation bet.
