Level 39
: Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
With about 7,500,000 in the middle the board read 6?5?4?4?Q?, Remigiusz Wyrzykiewicz checked and Alexander Tkatschew pushed forward a stack of 12,000,000.
Remigiusz Wyrzykiewicz raised 1,600,000 on the button, Eduardo Pereira, who only had 600,000 left after paying the big blind the previous hand, called in the small blind, and Alexander Tkatschew called in the big blind.
When the J?10?6? flop hit the felt, Tkatschew checked and Wyrzykiewicz bet 1,500,000. Tkatschew instantly folded and both hands were tabled.
Pereira smashed the flop with top two pair and was in great shape, the 2? turn looked promising but the A? landed on the river, giving Wyrzykiewicz Broadway to eliminate Pereira in fifth place.
Ercan Atmaca shoved for 4,200,000 and Miroslav Forman called in the big blind.
Ercan Atmaca: J?2?
Miroslav Forman: A?K?
The 10?9?7? flop gave Atmaca a straight draw and the J? turn gave him a pair, but the Q? river improved Forman to Broadway as Atmaca exited the table in sixth place.
Ercan Atmaca shoved his last 1,300,000 and Alexander Tkatschew announced he was all-in from the small blind, forcing the big blind out of the pot.
Ercan Atmaca: 10?7?
Alexander Tkatschew: A?Q?
The 9?8?2? flop gave Atmaca an open-ended straight draw as well has two live cards and the 7? turn gave him a pair to take the lead. The 3? river was a brick as he raked in the pot.
Miroslav Forman opened 4,000,000 in the cutoff and Ercan Atmaca jammed on the button. The action folded back to Forman and he called off his 5,600,000.
Miroslav Forman: A?8?
Ercan Atmaca: 4?4?
It was a flip and the A?9?5?A?6? runout gave Forman trip aces to stay alive, while leaving Atmaca with barely a big blind.
