Guilbert Eliminated on the Bubble

Level 19 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Johan Guilbert
Johan Guilbert

Johan Guilbert defended the big blind against a raise by chip leader Seri Reixach and check-called a bet on the {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{2-Spades} flop. He had some 255,000 behind to the {8-Diamonds} turn and got those in for Reixach to call with the far superior stack.

Johan Guilbert: {j-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}
Sergi Reixach: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}

The French poker pro had plenty of outs with his live cards and flush draw but the {10-Spades} river was not among them to let the money bubble burst.

As of now, all remaining 11 contenders will also receive a special bounty ticket that can be redeemed by the player who scores the knockout from now on.

Level 18 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Belarmino De Souza
Belarmino De Souza

Timothy Adams raised to 55,000 on the button and then called the all-in of Belarmino De Souza for 85,000 in the small blind.

They had to wait for the other table to complete their hand in which a battle of the blinds led to a pot worth 175,000 to the {8-Spades}{7-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{9-Clubs} river. Sergi Reixach overbet for 275,000 and Rodrigo Selouan tank-called to then muck when shown {10-Clubs}{6-Hearts}.

Back to the other table, the cards were turned over.

Belarmino De Souza: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Timothy Adams: {q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

The {j-Spades}{8-Hearts}{6-Spades}{a-Spades}{q-Clubs} board kept De Souza in contention as he nearly tripled up his stack.

Johan Guilbert
Johan Guilbert

Steve O'Dwyer pushed all-in from the small blind and Johan Guilbert as the shortest stack on their table called for 170,000, having invested 25,000 for the big blind ante already.

Johan Guilbert: {k-Clubs}{4-Clubs}
Steve O'Dwyer: {q-Hearts}{4-Spades}

The {10-Spades}{8-Clubs}{5-Clubs} flop reduced the outs of O'Dwyer as Guilbert held the flush draw. Nothing changed with the {8-Diamonds} turn and the {j-Clubs} river improved Guilbert to the flush, securing his double on the bubble.

De Souza Chips Down; Selouan Chips Up

Level 18 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Belarmino De Souza limped the small blind and then called a raise to 55,000 by Jean-Noel Thorel in the big blind. On the {7-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} flop, De Souza checked and Thorel moved all-in to force a fold from the Brazilian.

One table over, Imad Derwiche raised to 50,000 in the cutoff and Rodrigo Selouan came along in the big blind. The {8-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{2-Spades} flop was check-called by Selouan for 55,000 and the {3-Diamonds} turn went check, check. On the {10-Hearts} river, Selouan checked and tossed in a single chip when Derwiche bet small once more.

Derwiche revealed the {5-Spades}{5-Clubs}, which Selouan had beat with the {a-Spades}{6-Diamonds} for a pair of sixes.

Unscheduled Break On the Bubble

Level 18 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Due to technical issues with the tournament clock, all events have been sent into an unscheduled 20-minute break. As far as the �10,200 Mystery Bounty event is concerned, this resulted in a break right on the money bubble with 24 minutes left in the level. The action will continue with hand-for-hand mode when the final 12 are back in their seats.

Dietrich Fast: {2-Spades}{2-Diamonds}
Sergi Reixach: {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}

The board ran out {6-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{k-Spades} for Reixach to leave Fast drawing dead on the turn as he improved his flopped set to a full house.

De Souza Folds to Thorel

Level 18 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Belarmino De Souza min-raised to 40,000 just before the blinds went up and Jean-Noel Thorel then three-bet to 100,000 from one seat over. Imad Derwiche and Boris Kolev in the blinds both folded and De Souza used two time banks before folding the {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} face-up.

Derwiche's {k-Clubs}{q-Spades} and the {j-Spades}{3-Clubs} of Kolev were exposed while Thorel mucked his cards and collected the chips.
