Level 14 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Filip Lovric and Michail Karapanos just tangled in another big pot, only this time it resulted in Karapanos being sent to the rail.

Filip Lovric: A♣8♥7♥6♣

Level 14 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

"Raise pot," Alex Livingston said, raising to 35,000 from early position while leaving just 4,000 behind.

"Nobody's intimidated," he added as Michail Karapanos called in the cutoff, as did big blind Leonid Yanovski.

Alex Livingston: A♥A♦Q♦6♠
Leonid Yanovski: 10♣9♠7♣6♦
