Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Francesco Macri
Francesco Macri

Francesco Macri opened to 1,700 first to act and was called by Anatoly Korochenskiy in the hijack, Daniil Shalaev in the cutoff, Viet Van Vo on the button, and Anton Markov in the big blind for a five-way pot.

The flop came 10?10?10? and it was checked around to Vo, who bet 1,700. Macri called and everyone else got out of the way.

Macri, check-called a 2,700 from Vo on the 5? turn and checked a final time after the 3? completed the board.

Vo wasn't done, however, and fired 11,200 into the middle. Macri wasn't a believer and stuck in a call and Vo could only turn over K?6?.

Macri revealed A?J? for just an ace and collected the large pot.

Flush Clash: One Player Bows Out

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

With around 22,000 already in the pot and the board displaying 5?10?7?6?9?, the action heated up between Elie Saade in the small blind and Piotr Wiecek under the gun. Both players engaged in a fierce raise-and-re-raise battle on the river, ending in Saade pushing all in. It was now up to Wiecek to decide whether to gamble for his tournament life.

After a moment of contemplation, Wiecek made the call, leading them to a showdown. Wiecek revealed K?10? for a king-high flush, but Saade had the better hand with A?10?, giving him an ace-high flush. With that, Wiecek was eliminated from the tournament, while Saade happily added a significant boost to his chip stack.

In the opening hand, Giorgii Skhulukhiia kicked things off with a raise to 700. Kazi Bairamukov in the small blind and Bobby James in the big blind both called.

The flop came down 7?8?J?, and everyone checked.

On the turn, the 5? hit, and Bairamukov led out with a bet of 1,500, which both players called.

When the 5? landed on the river, Bairamukov checked again. James then took the initiative with a bet of 3,000. Skhulukhiia thought it over before raising to 10,300. Bairamukov folded, but James took his time before making the call. Skhulukhiia revealed 7?5? for a full house, leaving James with just 200 chips. James later told PokerNews he had J?9?, but he didn’t show.

In the next hand, James was in the small blind and effectively all in from the start with only 200 chips left. Mehmet Demirkol in the cutoff raised to 700, and Bairamukov, now on the button, called. James pushed all in for his last 100.

The flop brought 6?4?4?, and Demirkol check-called Bairamukov’s 1,500 bet.

The turn was the K?, and Demirkol again checked. Bairamukov bet 5,000, and Demirkol called.

On the river, 7?, Demirkol checked once more, and Bairamukov went all in for 20,000. Demirkol went deep into the tank but ultimately folded. Since James was all in, they went to a showdown. James revealed A?10? for ace-high, but Bairamukov showed A?K? for two pair, taking down the pot and eliminating James from the tournament.

Last year, India's Ankit Ahuja claimed victory in this event, pocketing $362,365. The former tech consultant, Ahuja entered the final table as chip leader but faced several tough hands that knocked him back to the middle of the pack by Day 4. A crucial flip early on helped him regain the lead, ultimately defeating Romania’s Eduard Norel, who took home $226,550 for second place.
