Loeser Busts; "Sbma664" Doubles

Level 29 : 60,000/120,000, 0 ante
Manig Loeser eliminated
Manig Loeser eliminated

Manig Loeser came back from the break as the far shortest stack and doubled once. He then got it in again shortly after against "Grgur" from Croatia.

Manig Loeser: {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}{q-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
"Grgur": {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{k-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}

On a board of {9-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}, Loeser's fortune ran out in 16th place.

In the very next hand, "Sbma2016" got it in preflop for more than 2.6 million against Juha Helppi for a pot of 5.2 million and they needed to improve.

"Sbma2016: {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{7-Spades}
Juha Helppi: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Spades}

The {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{6-Spades} flop gave Helppi an additional flushdraw but the {k-Clubs} turn and {7-Clubs} river runout sent the Finn near the bottom of the counts.

"peanutbutter" saw their tournament come to an end with {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{2-Spades} as Tszfai "WinEasy" Tong turned an unbeatable straight with the {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{8-Spades} on a board of {10-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{6-Spades}.

A few double ups later, the next player hit the rail and that was Jose "2ducklings" Nascimento. All the chips were in before the flop as the Brazilian was at risk for a few blinds only.

Jose "2ducklings" Nascimento: {k-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}
"Lauvai": {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}

The board brought {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} and that spelled the end for Nascimento.

Yonathan "ninoboys80" Journo and Anton "storytellerA" Morgenstern both spent quite some time on the top of the leaderboard and it wasn't long ago that Morgenstern had a substantial lead. However that all came to a crashing end in the last few minutes and he ended up at risk against Journo.

Yonathan "ninoboys80" Journo: {a-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}
Anton "storytellerA" Morgenstern: {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

On a board of {k-Hearts}{4-Spades}{3-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{a-Spades}, Journo nailed the straight on the turn.

Another Two on the Rail

Level 28 : 50,000/100,000, 0 ante

The double ups are traded in rapid fashion but there were also two all-in showdowns that reduced the field from 21 to the last 19 contenders and Juha Helppi was responsible for both of them.

First Helppi flopped a boat out of the big blind when the chips went in on the {10-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} flop against "Blank0DMT" on the button:

"Blank0DMT: {j-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{7-Spades}
Juha Helppi: {10-Spades}{7-Hearts}{5-Spades}{3-Spades}

The {q-Diamonds} turn and {2-Hearts} river brought no help.

And then it was Chirag "Umeshbhai" Sodha who check-called all-in for the last 388,403 on the {10-Spades}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts} flop.

Chirag "Umeshbhai" Sodha: {a-Hearts}{6-Spades}{6-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}
Juha Helppi: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

The {9-Clubs} turn brought no help, nor did the {10-Clubs} on the river.

Aaron van Blarcum followed him to the rail shortly after. On a flop of {j-Clubs}{4-Spades}{2-Clubs}, van Blarcum got it in with {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{7-Spades}{4-Clubs} for a pair and flushdraw only to see Tszfai "WinEasy" Tong look him up holding the {k-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} for top pair. The {q-Hearts} turn and {7-Hearts} river runout gave both players two pair and Tong had the best of it.
