Masset Not All In Yet

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Pascal Masset quickly got up to more than 120,000 chips and then got involved into a raising war with Nicolas Nicolopoulos. The latter five-bet shoved with pocket aces and Masset called with pocket kings to fall down to around 13,000 in chips. The Belgian just now moved almost all in, leaving himself a T-100 chip behind to scoop the blinds and antes.

Duran Cannot Flush Chisu

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Danut-Florin Chisu defended his big blind against the raise of Olivier Duran from under the gun. On the {6-Hearts} {K-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} turn, Duran moved all in with {A-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} and Chisu snap-called with the {4-Spades} {3-Diamonds} for a straight. Only a diamond could save Duran, though the {5-Spades} river was a brick.

Dahmani Doubles Through van Itterbeeck

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Dieter van Itterbeeck three-bet to 8,800 and then called the shove of Omar Dahmani for 78,200 with {Q-Spades} {Q-Diamonds}. Dahmani held the {A-Hearts} {J-Hearts} and was ready to leave his table once the {4-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} {4-Spades} flop fell. Sure enough, right after Dahmani stood up the {A-Clubs} arrived on the turn and the {8-Hearts} river completed the board.
