Level 22 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante
Jonathan 'xMONSTERxDONGx' Karamalikis
Jonathan 'xMONSTERxDONGx' Karamalikis

Jonathan Karamalikis opened to 50,000 from under the gun only to have Peco Stojanovski three-bet to 125,000 from the cutoff.

Karamalikis made the call to see the {4-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{9-Spades} flop fall and Karamalikis check-call a 200,000-chip bet from Stojanovski.

When the turn landed the {5-Diamonds}, Karamalikis took the lead by firing out a bet of 160,000 with Stojanovski making the call before both players checked the {6-Diamonds} on the river.

Stojanovski tabled his {J-Clubs}{J-Clubs}, but it would be Karamalikis' {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds} that would see him collect the pot and move to 2,550,000 in chips.

Stojanovski is now down to 595,000.

Roland de Wolfe - 8th Place

On the first hand back from break, Roland de Wolfe moved all in for 367,000 from early position. Jonathan Karamalikis made the call from the big blind and turned up the {A-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}. He was dominating de Wolfe's {A-Spades}{9-Hearts}.

The flop, turn and river ran out rather uneventful with it coming {Q-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Spades}. De Wolfe was up and out of his chair by time the turn hit the felt and shook the hands of everyone remaining. He wished them all luck and exited in eighth place for A$50,285. Karamalikis moved to 2.847 million in chips.

Chop, Chop

Level 22 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante

Antoine Amourette raised to 55,000 and was called by Jonathan Karamalikis and Tom Rafferty. Rafferty was in the big blind and acted first after the flop came down {6-Clubs}{6-Spades}{3-Clubs}. He checked and the other two checked behind him.

The turn card was the {3-Diamonds} and Rafferty fired 100,000. Amourette called and Karamalikis folded. The river cad was he {2-Spades} and both remaining players checked.

Both played the two pair on board with an ace kicker and chopped up the pot. Amourette held the {A-Spades}{Q-Spades} and Rafferty the {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}.

Karamalikis Cruising, Hansimikali Slipping

Level 22 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante

Jonathan Karamalikis raised to 50,000 from early position and Manuel Hansimikali called from the big blind. The flop came down {K-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{10-Clubs} and Hansimikali check-called a bet of 60,000 from Karamalikis.

The turn brought the {10-Diamonds} to pair the board and both players checked. They also both checked after the {Q-Clubs} fell on the river.

Hansimikali showed the {Q-Spades}{8-Spades} for queens and tens with a king kicker. Karamalikis had that beat with the {Q-Hearts}{J-Spades} for queens and jacks.

Hansimikali dropped to 230,000 and is now in the danger zone with his stack under ten big blinds. Karamalikis in on the other side of the spectrum, leading the way with 2.9 million.
