Been Doubles Through Daniels
Antonio Martinac opened the action with a raise to 20,000 from early position and Aaron Been three-bet to 80,000 from the next seat. It folded to big blind Jacob Daniels who called the three-bet. Martinac called as well.
The flop came down [acks4h] and it checked to Been who continued with a bet of 45,000. Been called and Martinac got out of the way.
The turn was the [8h] and Daniels checked again. Been fired a bet of 200,000 this time and Daniels called again.
The river was the [jd] and Daniels used a time extension to give himself another 30 seconds before he bet 365,000. Been thought about it for a bit before announcing all in.
Daniels immediately wanted a count. He also said ”I really hope I’m not slowrolling” before he eventually put his chips in the middle.
Been opened up [qsts] for the absolute nuts and Daniels’s expression turned to disgust when he opened up his [4d4c].

Leo Fernandez Eliminated
We initially missed the action but Brunno Botteon De Albuquerque was kind enough to fill us in on the details after the hand was over.
De Albuquerque was first to act and opened to 18,000 in the previous level. Leo Fernandez called from the big blind.
Fernandez checked on [4x6x9x] with a single diamond and De Albuquerque bet 40,000 into a pot of about 50,000. Fernandez called.
The [Td] on the turn saw Fernandez check once more and call again as De Albuquerque bet 80,000 this time.
With an off-suit [Qx] completing the board, Fernandez checked for the third time. De Albuquerque bet 220,000 and Fernandez shoved. De Albuquerque called with [7d8d] for the straight and Fernandez’ pocket queens for the rivered set ended up face down in the muck.

Antonio Martinac Has to Re-Enter
Antonio Martinac was down to only 100,000 when he pushed his last chips to the middle with an ace and a low kicker, according to Freek Scholten. He was called by a player at the table with king-ten offsuit and the board ran out with a king on the board to send Martinac to the rail.
Martinac immediately re-entered and is back in the mix with a fresh 1,000,000 in front of him.

Martinac Getting Short
The action folded to Antonio Martinac in the small blind and he completed. Big blind Niall Farrell checked so they saw a flop of [7cAd9d] on the cheap.
Martinac bet 35,000 and Farrell called. A similar pattern was seen on the turn and river with Martinac firing 85,000 on the [Kh] and 100,000 on the [2d] that completed the board. Farrell called both times and Martinac mucked. Farrell showed [As4c] and took down the sizable pot.

Queens No Good for Lijo
Brunno Botteon De Albuquerque opened the button for 20,000 and small blind Lander Lijo three-bet to 75,000. The big blind folded, De Albuquerque called.
Lijo bet 35,000 on [5s5hKd] and De Albuquerque called before the two checked down the [Ad] turn and [8d] river.
Lijo showed pocket queens but saw those ladies hit the muck soon enough as his neighbor tabled king-jack off.

Scholten Doesn’t Spring the Trap
Freek Scholten raised under the gun to 20,000 and he was called by Antonio Martinac from the button and big blind Sergio Ilarasky.
The flop came down [qhqc3h] and Scholten continued with a bet of 25,000 after a check of Ilarasky. Martinac got out of the way but Ilarasky called.
The turn was the [jd] and both players checked to see the [kh] complete the board on the river.
Ilarasky checked again and Scholten checked behind. Ilarasky showed [qsjs] for a full house and Scholten didn’t spring the trap when he checked behind on the river.
Scholten With the Accidental Call
Niall Farrell was first to act but folded, missing out on what would become a family pot. All players were in the hand for the minimum with Sergio Iralasky (hijack), Freek Scholten (cutoff), Jack Sinclair (button), Marty Mathis (small blind), and Antonio Martinac (big bind) all seeing a flop of [2d4c3s] for cheap.
Mathis checked and Martinac bet 30,000. Iralasky folded, Scholten called, Sinclair and Mathis folded.
The [Ad] on the turn was checked by both before the [7s] completed the board. Martinac bet 15,000 and Scholten called having double-checked with the dealer how much it was.
Martinac showed [Qd3h] and Scholten leaned forward making sure it was just a pair of threes, before revealing his [Kd5d]. It turned out that Scholten though he had king-four of diamonds for a pair of fours and the missed flush draw while he in fact had the rivered wheel. Regardless, Scholten won the small pt and started stacking.
