Moraes Scores a Double

Level 21 : 25,000/50,000, 6,000 ante

"spaise411" chipped up without showdown and up next, it was Simon "C. Darwin2" Mattsson who opened to 101,000 in the hijack. Table short stack Rafael "GM_VALTER" Moraes jammed for 376,584 in the big blind and Mattsson called.

Rafael "GM_VALTER" Moraes: {a-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Simon "C. Darwin2" Mattsson: {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

Both players made a pair on the {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{4-Spades}{5-Clubs} runout and Moraes dodged the flush draw on top to survive.

Bigger Pots for Spragg and Nemeth

Level 21 : 25,000/50,000, 6,000 ante

In a limped pot to the {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{4-Clubs} flop, Ben "Spraggy" Spragg check-called a bet worth 60,000 by Christian "WATnlos" Rudolph. Spragg check-called for another 140,000 on the {k-Spades} turn and then opted to check the {a-Diamonds} on the river.

Rudolph now fired a third barrel for 310,800 and Spragg called with {j-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} for aces and fours, which won the pot as Rudolph had the nut low with {3-Clubs}{2-Clubs}.

One hand later, "spaise411" min-raised and Andras "probirs" Nemeth called from one seat over. Rudolph three-bet to 360,000 in the small blind and picked up a call by Nemeth only. The {k-Spades}{3-Clubs}{2-Clubs} flop saw Rudolph with a continuation bet for 240,000 and Nemeth stuck around to the {6-Clubs} turn.

Rudolph now checked and then called Nemeth's bet worth 447,150, which led them to the {2-Hearts} river. The check of Rudolph triggered a jam by Nemeth and that won the large pot uncontested.

Crema Loses Some; Then Doubles

Level 20 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Thiago "KKremate" Crema lost a showdown pot to "HITRII999" when he paid off a bet worth 182,199 on the {j-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{2-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{7-Clubs} river. His opponent showed {k-Hearts}{j-Clubs} and that won the pot.

One hand later, "HITRII999" opened and reluctantly called the shove by Crema.

Thiago "KKremate" Crema: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}
"HITRII999": {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

Board: {9-Hearts}{5-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{8-Clubs}

Leonard Doubles Through Garagnani

Level 20 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Patrick "pads1161" Leonard defended the big blind following a raise to 82,400 by Pedro "pvigar" Garagnani and a cold-call of Konstantin "krakukra" Maslak in the big blind.

On the {j-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} flop, Leonard check-jammed for 657,992 and was called by Garagnani.

Patrick "pads1161" Leonard: {q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Pedro "pvigar" Garagnani: {k-Spades}{j-Spades}

The {k-Clubs} turn gave Leonard a flush but he had not locked up the double just yet. What followed was the {5-Hearts} river and that kept Leonard in contention.

Spragg Starts With a Jam

Level 20 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Russia's "spaise411" four-bet jammed and got through with it right away.

In the next hand, Dalton "daltonhb" Hobold raised to 80,000 from under the gun and Ben "Spraggy" Spragg three-bet jammed for just over 1 million. The blinds got out of the way and Hobold also instantly folded.
