A clash of Festival Series Titans has just occurred in the Hendon Mob Championship (THMC) between Presiyan Tsvetanov and Siarhei Narohzny.
The two clashed in consecutive hands, resulting in elimination for the Belorussian player. In the first of these, Prisiyan made a river bet of 165,000 on a 9 5 A A Q board. Both had an ace but Narohzny was out kicked, sending a huge pot of over 500,000 to the Bulgarian’s side of the table.
In the very next hand they got it all in with Narohzny’s KJ dominated by Prisiyan’s AK. the board brought no face cards and Narohzny exited the tournament in 31st place. Narohzny was down to his last 188,000 at this point and these wins pushed his stack just over the 1m mark.
Narohzny wasted no time and jumped straight into the 8-Game, which now has 78 entrants and is in its final level for late registration.
There are now 30 players left i the tournament and other big stacks in the room include Lewis Aikman in 905k and Frederik Max with 795k.
THMC restarted at 1pm with 81 players returning for the final day, with 47 places paid. Joe Grech and David Lappin, who had been amongst the big stacks at the start of the day both scraped into the money, Joe exiting in 45th while the Unibet ambassador David hit the rail in 41st place.
