David Salituro

Level 12 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Action folded to Daniel Smiljkovic in the small blind who pushed all in for 102,000. Adrian Mateos called in the big blind to put him at risk.

Daniel Smiljkovic: K♠10♣
Adrian Mateos: A♣7♥

Mateos remained in the lead on the 9♠J♥6♠ flop, but Smiljkovic hit the 10♥ on the turn to make a pair. The river, though, was the A♦ and Mateos spiked his ace to win the pot and send Smiljkovic to the rail.

Andersson Can Not Beat Rockets

Frank Visser

Level 12 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Joakim Andersson and Adrian Mateos had arrived on the river on 2♠7♥J♦2♥5♦. With around 190,000 chips already in the middle, Andersson checked from the big blind to Mateos under the gun.

Mateos then put enough chips in the middle to put Andersson all in for his stack of 85,000. Andersson thought it over for a bit but ended up making the call.

Mateos tabled A♠A♦ and Andersson could not beat that as his cards flew into the muck while he took his leave.

On another table, Sergi Reixach was also eliminated from the tournament.

Lonis Takes Out Vieira

David Salituro

Level 11 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

In a blind versus blind battle, Joao Vieira moved all in for 96,000 and Jesse Lonis called.

Joao Vieira: A♦8♥
Jesse Lonis: A♥10♣

Both players ended up with trips on the A♠7♦6♥4♥A♣ board, but Lonis' ten-kicker played to earn him the pot and the knockout.

"I thought it was like 130. I'm glad I asked for a count. I thought it was way more," Lonis said.

Chris Brewer: A♠J♦

Mokri Runs Into Nuts

Frank Visser

Level 10 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Adrian Mateos had raised preflop from under the gun and was called by Kayhan Mokri in the small blind. On the A♠K♠K♣ flop, Mokri checked to Mateos, who fired a bet of 5,000 chips.

Mokri responded with a raise to 17,500, which Mateos called. On the J♥ turn, Mokri sized up to 20,000 and received another call from Mateos.

The 3♣ river then arrived and Mokri put all his chips in the middle, amounting to 100,000 of them. Mateos snap called and tabled his A♥A♣ for top full house.

Mokri's K♦10♦ for trip kings were not good enough, resulting in his second and final exit of the day.

Adams Done for the Day

Frank Visser

Level 9 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Yulian Bogdanov raised from the cutoff and Timothy Adams got his final seven or so blinds in from the small blind. Bogdanov complied with the extra chips and the cards were turned face-up.

Timothy Adams: A♣2♠
Yulian Bogdanov: Q♣10♣

Bogdanov flopped a flush draw on J♣7♣6♠ for some extra outs, but the 3♥ turn remained safe for Adams. However, Bogdanov rivered a pair on Q♠ and Adams swiftly sought the exit as his only allowed reentry was a shortlived affair.

Hissou Departs Again

Frank Visser

Level 8 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Sirzat Hissou raised to 6,000 from the hijack and Santhosh Suvarna three-bet to 16,000 on the button. The action folded back to Hissou, who put in another raise to 35,000.

Suvarna confirmed the amount and made the call before he called the 45,000 continuation-bet of his opponent as well, on a flop of J♠8♣10♣.

Hissou then slowed down and checked the K♠ turn, after which he called Suvarna's 55,000 bet.

On the 3♥ river, Hissou checked once more and Suvarna pushed all in, covering Hissou's stack of 40,000 chips. Hissou tanked for a bit but eventually made the call, being shown A♦A♣ by his opponent.

Hissou could not beat that and his Q♦Q♣ disappeared into the muck. He busted his second and final bullet and swiftly left the tournament area.

David Salituro

Level 7 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Artur Martirosian had just fired his second bullet before he three-bet to 21,000 in the small blind after Sam Greenwood opened to 6,000 on the button. Elias Gutierrez four-bet to 50,000 in the big blind, Greenwood moved all in for around 210,000, and Martirosian called for his last 80,000. Gutierrez got out of the way.

Artur Martirosian: K♦K♥
Sam Greenwood: A♣K♣

Martirosian was ahead with his kings and poised for a double up as the flop came 8♦5♦9♠, but the A♠ spiked on the turn to give Greenwood the lead. The river was the J♥ and Martirosian's tournament came to an end.
