Vaskaboinikau Catches Mokri

Nível 13 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Kayhan Mokri raised to 40,000 on the button before Steve O'Dwyer moved all in for 464,000 in the big blind. Mokri shuffled his chips for a moment before folding.

Mokri tried again the next hand, this time raising to 35,000. Mikalai Vaskaboinikau called in the big blind and they went heads-up to the 3♦A♣2♥ flop.

Mokri then bet 18,000 and Vaskaboinikau called. Both players checked the 5♥ turn.

The river came the K♥ and Mokri bet another 60,000. Vaskaboinikau, leaning over the table getting a massage, used two time bank chips. "Okay, I call," he eventually announced.

Mokri was forced to show Q♣9♣ for a bluff and Vaskaboinikau turned over K♣7♣ to win the pot. "Almost," Mokri said.

Adams Eliminated; Grafton Doubles

Tboss

Nível 13 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Timothy Adams shoved 163,000 under the gun, and Mikalai Vaskaboinikau called in the cutoff before Sam Grafton moved all-in on the button. Vaskaboinikau asked for a count and called after hearing it was 306,000.

Timothy Adams: 9♦9♥
Sam Grafton: A♠K♠
Mikalai Vaskaboinikau: A♣Q♥

Adams was in the lead with a pair of nines until the A♦10♦3♦ flop hit the felt, pairing the ace for both of his opponents. Adams was unable to catch another diamond or a nine as the board completed with the 8♣ turn and J♣ river, sending him out of the tournament while Grafton's king-kicker earned him the double.

Vaskaboinikau Gets There on the River

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

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.

Vaskaboinikau Bubbles the €100,000 EPT Super High Roller

Tboss

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.

Mokri Can't Win Another Flip as O'Dwyer Sticks Around

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.
