Nível 14 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Sam Grafton limped the small blind, and Jean-Noel Thorel checked his option.

When the K♥9♣8♥ flop hit the felt, Grafton led for 20,000 and Thorel made the call.

The 7♦ fell on the turn, and Grafton check-raised the bet of 30,000 to 90,000. Thorel called.

The 9♥ paired the board on the river and Grafton bet 265,000, leaving just 16,000 behind. Thorel moved all-in, and Grafton called. Grafton tabled 10♦6♣ for a straight on the turn, but it was no good as Thorel showed his trappy K♣K♠, making kings full of nines.

Sam Grafton opened 50,000 on the button, and Kayhan Mokri ripped all-in from the big blind. The action was back on Grafton as he asked aloud, "Should I slow roll him? How much is it?"

A friend of Grafton yelled from the rail, "No, karma's a b*tch!"

Grafton quickly called after he heard that and both hands were tabled.

Sam Grafton: K♠K♦
Kayhan Mokri: A♥3♣

Grafton was way ahead with the pocket kings but the 10♣9♣8♠7♣6♠ run out put a straight on the board to chop the pot.

Steve O'Dwyer raised to 44,000 under the gun and Kayhan Mokri defended his big blind.

The flop came K♠8♠3♣ and O'Dwyer continued for 35,000. Mokri called and both players checked the 4♥ turn.

Mokri led out for 115,000 on the K♣ river and O'Dwyer went deep into the tank, using up three time banks before he slid his cards into the middle after nearly two minutes.

Nível 14 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Jean-Noel Thorel put in 50,000 on the button before Kayhan Mokri shoved forward a tower of green 25,000 chips from the small blind, enough to put him all in. Steve O'Dwyer called off his last 216,000 in the big blind, while Thorel folded.

Steve O'Dwyer: K♣Q♣
Kayhan Mokri: 7♦7♣

O'Dwyer took the lead on the K♠4♦A♠ flop with a pair of kings, and Mokri couldn't connect with the 8♦ turn or 9♦ river as O'Dwyer doubled up.

"I can't believe I lost a flip. I'm running bad," Mokri said after the hand.

Nível 14 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Mikalai Vaskaboinikau moved all-in for just under 400,000 in the cutoff, and the action folded to Kayhan Mokri in the big blind who snap-called.

Mikalai Vaskaboinikau: 8♠8♥
Kayahn Mokri: A♠K♦

It was a coin flip until Mokri paired his ace on the A♥9♠6♥ flop. Unfortunately for Vaskaboinikau, he couldn't find one of the remaining eights in the deck as the board completed with the 6♣ on the turn and the 4♠ on the river to just miss the min-cash worth €209,600.

Steve O'Dwyer limped in from the small blind and Mikalai Vaskaboinikau checked his option.

The flop came J♠4♠6♥ and O'Dwyer led out for 40,000. Vaskaboinikau then moved all in for 202,000 and O'Dwyer called.

Mikalai Vaskaboinikau: 7♦5♦
Steve O'Dwyer: 7♠6♦

O'Dwyer was ahead with his pair of sixes, while Vaskaboinikau was on a straight draw. The K♦ turn left Vaskaboinikau down to his last card to avoid being eliminated on the bubble. The river came the 3♥ and Vaskaboinikau completed his straight to double up, leaving O'Dwyer as a short stack.
