George Wolff’s Freeroll Gets There Against Jens Kyllonen
While Table 1 has been active, Table 2 has played host to the biggest pots of the day. Another just played out between George Wolff and Jens Kyllonen, where the former free rolled himself to a huge win.
Action was picked up immediately after Luc Greenwood’s double, with the board reading [9d6d4s3s].
Wolff had bet the turn and shoved after Kyllonen raised, quickly building the pot over 600,000.
Kyllonen mentioned something about “getting free rolled” and he was, as he held [Jx9x7x5x] to Wolff’s [QhQc7d5d]. Both players turned straights, but Wolff had flush draw to boot.
That draw got there on the river, as the [Qd] completed the board and Wolff’s flush.
“I should have known.” Kyllonen said, as the dealer pushed the a pot good for the chip lead across the table.

Luc Greenwood Doubles Through Gavin Cochrane
Picking up action after Gavin Cochrane opened to 15,000, Luc Greenwood three-bet to 44,000 from late position. The rest of the table folded before Cochrane called to see a [9c6h4h] flop.
The big stack quickly bet 100,000, which was enough to put Greenwood at risk for his tournament life. The Event #1 champion quickly called for his final 74,000 and tabled [KcKdQdTc].
The over pair was ahead, but Greenwood had to hold against his opponent’s [As8c6s5d].
He did, improving to a straight in the process as the [Jc] and [Qc] complete the board and Greenwood’s double.

Sam Greenwood Busts, Joni Jouhkimainen Doubles
There is still a chance for the Greenwood’s to keep the British Poker Open point lead, although that would require Luc to make another final table run. The Event #1 winner’s twin brother was one of the last to enter today’s Pot Limit Omaha event and he was unable to spin it up.
Sam Greenwood was eliminated from Table 2 in 14th place, before Joni Jouhkimainen doubled on Table 1.
The partypoker pro got all-in against Mike Watson, holding [AhAs9h7d] against [AcQcJcJd]. The board ran out clean for Jouhkimainen’s pocket aces and he got a full double just before the next level.

Soverel Soars To Lead Before Break
During the last half of Level 9, Sam Soverel played two pots against Hok Yiu Lee to take a massive chip.
The first hand was picked up on a board of [KcQh4c], with Soverel leading for 8,000. Lee raised to 30,000 and Soverel called to see the [8c] fall on the turn.
After Soverel checked, Lee bet 35,000 and Soverel called to see the [Qs] complete the board.
With just over 175,000 in his stack, Soverel bet 90,000 and after a few moments, Lee announced that he was all-in. Soverel double-checked his hand, looked at his opponent’s stack, and called. Lee shook his head and motioned that Soverel’s hand was likely good.
It was, as Soverel tabled [KdQdTc3d] for a rivered full house. Lee flashed his hand to Soverel before sending his cards into the muck.
Soverel stacked up just over 450,000 and a few hands later he took the rest of Lee’s stack to eclipse 600,000. The players are now on their final break before the end of late registration and when play resumes Sam Soverel will enter Level 10 with a massive chip lead.
