Pak Smashes the River

Nível 32 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Luke Martinelli opened under the gun to 400,000 before the action made it to Valeriy Pak in the small blind who moved all in. It was back on Martinelli who only took a moment before putting in the chips and they were off to a full board with Pak all in and at risk.

Valeriy Pak: A♠Q♣
Luke Martinelli: 9♦9♥

The K♥J♥5♠ flop missed Pak who would need some help. The 7♣ turn didn't change a thing but the 10♥ river gave Pak the nut straight.

Martinelli slid the chips to dealer who passed them to Pak as he gained new life late in the day.

Akimov Doubles Through Efe

Nível 32 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Baurzhan Akimov moved all in from under the gun before it folded to Aziz Efe in the small blind. He sat in the tank and pondered a call long enough that the clock was called. Before time expired he put in the call and the cards hit their backs with Akimov at risk.

Baurzhan Akimov: Q♣9♣
Aziz Efe: J♣J♠

The 8♠9♠6♣ flop was clean for Efe but the Q♥ turn would catapult Akimov into the lead. The 5♥ river sealed the deal and Akimov earned a pure double to basically be tied in chips with his opponent in this hand.

Mohammad Haidar Eliminated in 12th Place ($26,675)

OllieGarland

Nível 31 : 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante

The pot stood at approximately 700,000 with two players looking at a board that read 10♥9♣3♥Q♦.

Alexander Van Der Swaluw, in the big blind, checked the action over to Mohammad Haidar, in the hijack. Haidar bet 200,000 and Van Der Swaluw check-raised to 750,000. Haidar called.

The 7♣ fell on the river and Van Der Swaluw moved all in for 3,170,000; more than enough to put Haidar to the test for his remaining 2,800,000. Haidar remained in the tank for some time before making the call.

Mohammad Haidar: K♦Q♠
Alexander Van Der Swaluw: K♠J♦

Haidar's top pair was way behind the king-high straight of Van Der Swaluw, sending him to the rail in 12th place.
