Battle of the Blinds

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Alejandro Lococo
Alejandro Lococo

Action folded around to Alejandro Lococo in the small blind who open-shoved putting pressure on Luigi Soncin in the big blind.
Soncin responded with a snap call and hands were on their backs and he was the player at risk.

Luigi Soncin: {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}
Alejandro Lococo: {k-Hearts}{7-Clubs}

The flop was a safe {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{a-Hearts} for the at-risk player, but the {k-Clubs} on the turn put Lococo ahead and Soncin needed one of the remaining fives to save him.

The {2-Hearts} was no help and Soncin exited as Lococo increased his stack.

Jinho Hong moved all in for 220,000 from middle position. Victoria Livschitz also moved all in from the hijack for slightly less. Giovani Gouveia moved all in from the button and the blinds folded.

Victoria Livschitz: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Jinho Hong: {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}
Giovani Gouveia: {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}

Hong and Livschitz were in trouble when the flop came {k-Spades}{7-Clubs}{6-Spades} putting Gouveia way out in front. The turn gave Gouveia two pair as the {a-Spades} came. The river was the {3-Clubs} which eliminated both Hong and Livschitz from the tournament.

Three-Way All-In Boosts Ianuszewicz

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Stefan Ianuszewicz opened to 40,000 from the hijack before Alejandro Lococo jammed for 750,000 from the cutoff. Peter Jaksland called off his last 160,000 from the button and Ianuszewicz eventually called as well.

Peter Jaksland: {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
Stefan Ianuszewicz: {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Alejandro Lococo: {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

The short stack flopped best, pairing his ace on the {a-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{4-Spades} flop. The {6-Clubs} turn also kept Ianuszewicz ahead of Lococo. However, the {9-Diamonds} river gave Ianuszewicz the overall winner to scoop the 910,000 chip pot.

Joyce Chips Up

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Action folded to Gary Miller who raised to 40,000 from the cutoff and found a lone caller in Philip Joyce in the big blind.

Both players checked the {5-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{4-Hearts} flop and action resumed on the {7-Spades} turn.

Joyce decided to lead out for his remaining 130,000 chips and put his tournament life at risk.

Miller thought for a second and decided to fold, giving the pot to Joyce.
