[user38873]

Nível 16 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Martin Kozlov:
Troy Quenneville:

Kozlov had gotten it in with the best of it, but the flop saw Quenneville improve to a pair of queens. Things got infinitely worse on the turn, as Kozlov was left drawing dead. An already insignificant on the river completed the board and Kozlov had to settle for the min cash.

Ramos Hits the Rail

Nível 16 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

With the departure of Felipe Ramos there are now no PokerStars Team Pros left in the field with Sergey Lebedev sending the Brazilian to the rail.

Ramos was the aggressor in the hand, opening to 14,000 from middle position before Lebedev re-raised to 40,000 in total from the hi-jack. The rest of the table quickly got out of the way and Ramos moved all-in for what looked to be around 350,000 with Lebedev calling instantly without even asking for a count.

The cards were turned over and Ramos, holding , found himself racing for his tournament life against Lebedev’s .

Unfortunately for Ramos the flop came down to see Lebedev pair his ace to take a lead he would not relinquish when the turn and ran out to complete the hand, with the Russian stacking up to 777,000 when the dust settled.

Zhong Wang Eliminated in 17th to Set Up Redraw

Nível 18 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Flush from his recent double-up Xiaoyang Luo opened the action from late position and Zhong Wang moved all-in over the top for his last 200,000.

Luo thought it over and ran the shot clock down to 10-second before deciding the chance to eliminate a player was too good to pass up on and made the call.

Xhong Wang:
Xiaoyang Luo:

The flop was a very sweaty and despite holding the best hand in poker Wang could not hold on to his lead. The turn gave Luo more outs to go with his open-ended straight draw and caught one of them when the hit the river to give him two pairs to send Wang crashing out of the tournament.

Play paused here as the 16 remaining players are now redrawing for new seats.
