O'Brien Doubles McKeever
Level 11
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Alex O'Brien raised to 3,200 from early position and George McKeever shoved all in from the small blind for 18,200.
O'Brien weighed her options for a while but eventually decided to call to put McKeever at risk.
George McKeever: J♠J♥ 
Alex O'Brien: 7♠7♥
The 5♦2♠4♥9♣K♠ flop did not bring a seven and McKeever doubled up to just over a starting stack as a result.

Hamilton Brings the End for Kitt
Level 11
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Thomas Kitt jammed his final 22,400 chips in from the button and Gareth Hamilton looked him up from the small blind with the covering stack.
Thomas Kitt: Q♣9♣
Gareth Hamilton: J♥J♠
The J♦10♥4♣ flop made Hamilton a set but Kitt was still alive with his straight draw. However, it did not come in on the Q♦7♥ runout and Kitt left the tournament area, ready to smoke a cigar outside.

Molenaar Gets Paid
Level 10
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Nikolas Metaxas and Michel Molenaar were looking at a board of 4♠8♦4♦K♣. Metaxas made a bet of 3,600 and Molenaar called.
The 10♣ river then rolled off and Metaxas slowed down with a check. Molenaar piled a sizable 13,000 chips in the middle and Metaxas called after thinking it over for a few minutes.
Molenaar showed down K♥Q♣ for top pair and Metaxas nodded before adding his cards to the muck.

Chan Eliminates Gleeson in Huge Pot
Level 10
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Kwan Chan in the small blind and Eoin Gleeson in the big blind had created a pot of 70,000 chips when they arrived on the turn of 7♣3♥10♥10♦, which they both checked.
The 10♠ river was then dealt and Chan checked once more. Gleeson, however, announced his all-in for 42,400. Chan spent some minutes in the tank before finally committing to a call.
"You're good," Gleeson declared before showing his A♠Q♠ for ace-high. Chan tabled J♠J♦ for a full house and scooped up a very big pot while Gleeson was left empty-handed.
