Little Salter Busts in Three-way All in

Nível 1

So much action on the effervescent table number five right now where a three-way all in just occurred between Philipp Gruiseem, Vitaly Lunkin and Louis Salter. All the chips went in preflop.

Gruissem: {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}
Lunkin: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}
Salter: {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

The board ran {k-Hearts}{7-Spades}{2-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{9-Clubs} to see Lunkin double up. Salter and Team GB gain no points for their sixth place finish and Gruissem's still in the hunt with around 20,000.

Bryn Kenney Eliminated

Nível 1
Bryn Kenney - Mustapha Kanit
Bryn Kenney - Mustapha Kanit

Brynn Kenney lost most of his chips in a classic hand against Philipp Gruissem. They got it in after the flop with {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades} (Gruissem) and {K-Clubs}{K-Hearts} (Kenney). The board was {3-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} and Kenney had just 5,200 left.

Not much later, Kenney lost his last chips against that same Team Germany representant. Gruissem now had {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts} and Kenney {K-Spades}{Q-Hearts}. The board ran out {2-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{5-Spades}{4-Diamonds} and Kenney hit the rail.

"US Shower" Mustapha Kanit said with a thick Italian accent, "The kid play good, but unlucky!"

Team Russia Loses Another Player

Nível 1

Team Russia was the first one to have a casualty, and exit number two also came from that very same Russia.

On a flop of {6-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{Q-Spades} it was Soshnikov all in from the big blind for just 4,300. Erwann Pecheux in the cutoff thought for some time, and finally made the call with just 5 seconds left to act.

Ivan Soshnikov: {J-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}
Erwann pecheux: {A-Clubs}{9-Spades}

The {5-Diamonds} on the turn was a blank, but the {A-Hearts} on the river wasn't. "Player out!"

Filatov's The First To Go

Nível 1

We have lost our first player of the 2015 Global Poker Masters World Cup, as Russia's Anatoly Filatov hit the rail.

On one of the outer tables Filatov was all in before the flop holding {3-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} versus Dario Sammartino's {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}.

The board ran out {Q-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{7-Spades} and Filatov hit the rail. Sammartino now has a chip lead and that will be a huge advantage when looking to score points in this first heat.

All in and Call!

Nível 1

The first and all in call came from table number two and saw Russia's Ivan Soshnikov at risk.

He three-bet all in for 2,375 after an under-the-gun open from Giulianio Bendineli. Call.

Bendineli: {a-Hearts}{6-Hearts}
Soshnikov: {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}

"Good game, well played!" joked Ami Barer to Soshnikov.

The Team Russia player smiled and even more so after an {8-Spades}{3-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{q-Spades} board came down.

Frank Calls Big Bet

Nível 1

Christopher Frank of Team Germany opened the cutoff for 750 and Simon Deadman of Team United Kingdom in the big blind was the only caller.

Both players checked the {9-Clubs}{2-Spades}{10-Diamonds} flop and {9-Spades} turn.

The river came the {10-Spades}, making for a double paired board with three spades.

Deadman bet out 3,100 and Frank smiled uncomfortably. After a while, he somewhat reluctantly called.

Deadman showed {A-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} but that wouldn't win. It didn't even chop; Frank showed {A-Spades}{8-Spades} for the rivered flush and took it down.

The Value of Having Chips

Nível 1

The early goings of the Global Poker Masters World Cup have been slow, as expected. The value of having chips, and hanging around in the middle of the pack, is very valuable when looking at finishing in the Top 4.

After the first team will get knocked out, and therefor another will have a lot of chips, the pace of the play will obviously pick up as then there will be something to fight for. Busting out first may be the worst thing that can happen, but finishing in fifth will get you an equal amount of points.

Accumulating chips will become progressively more important as we get closer and closer to the end of the first heat, but for now it's a waiting game between the eight different countries.

Big Bets and Folds Under Pressure

Nível 1

The third level of the heat (150/300-50) is underway and every table still has a full allotment of players. The shot clock is working very well as the place of play moves also at a brisk pace.

Rather than seeing players make rash calls, a lot of hands are seeing players folding to big bets or raises. An aggressive approach seems to be working well alongside the time restrictions. It'll be interesting to see if players adjust as the heats roll on.

Guiliano Bendinelli and Oleksii Khoroshenin both won chunky pots with big river raises. Ami Barer and Christopher Frank were their respective opponents and both admitted defeat with their short clock time.
