Kade Eliminated on the River

Level 17 : 7,500/15,000, 1,850 ante

Vanessa "Niffller" Kade opened from middle position to 31,500 and Lex "L. Veldhuis" Veldhuis called on the button, as did "bagoch" in the small blind, and the player in the big blind.

The flop was {8-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} and Kade bet 94,336. Only "bagoch" continued as he raised to 375,000. Kade went all in for only 1,934 more and was called.

Vanessa "Niffller" Kade: {7-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
"bagoch": {10-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}

Kade flopped the nuts but was still at risk against the flush draw of "bagoch". The {5-Spades} came on the turn and with Kade just needing to fade a diamond, the river {k-Diamonds} sent her on her way and brought "bagoch" to over 1 million in chips.

Talbot Eliminated Before the Money

Level 17 : 7,500/15,000, 1,850 ante

Ognyan "cocojamb0" Dimov raised to 30,000 in early position and Parker "tonkaaaa" Talbot went all in for 139,697 from one seat over. Action folded back to Dimov who made the call.

Parker "tonkaaaa" Talbot: {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Ognyan "cocojamb0" Dimov: {9-Spades}{a-Diamonds}

Talbot was in a good position to get a double, but the flop came {a-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{k-Clubs}. The {7-Spades} turn left Talbot drawing to a queen but the {9-Diamonds} river ended his run. After surviving earlier in the tournament thanks to a fortunate ace, it's the ace that does him in this time, and sends Dimov his chips.

Vogelsang Eliminated by Big Blind Rockets

Level 16 : 6,000/12,000, 1,500 ante

Before the break, action folded to Tom "Daenarys T" Vogelsang who called in the small blind before "xMFPx" raised to 36,000 in the big blind. Vogelsang moved all in for his 295,974 chips and was quickly called.

Tom "Daenarys T" Vogelsang: {k-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}
"xMFPx": {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}

Unfortunately for Vogelsang, he ran into the aces and although he gained some straight outs on the {5-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{7-Hearts} flop, the {2-Spades} turn and {6-Hearts} river ended his tournament run.

Cochrane Flops Set in Battle of the Blinds

Level 16 : 6,000/12,000, 1,500 ante

Action folded to Gavin "gavz101" Cochrane in the small blind who called and "GlobalHappiness" checked the big blind.

The flop came {2-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{j-Clubs} and proved to be quite an action flop as Cochrane check-raised after "GlobalHappiness" bet 14,375, bringing it up to 45,425. "GlobalHappiness" re-raised to 130,000 and Cochrane put in his entire 380,983 stack. "GlobalHappiness" called and hands were revealed.

Gavin "gavz101" Cochrane: {2-Clubs}{2-Spades}
"GlobalHappiness": {j-Diamonds}{3-Spades}

"GlobalHappiness" couldn't have been happy to see his flopped top two-pair run into the flopped set of deuces of Cochrane. The board ran out {9-Diamonds} on the turn and the {k-Diamonds} completed the board to send the pot to Cochrane.

Cowboys Add to Veldhuis' Stack

Level 15 : 5,000/10,000, 1,250 ante

Lex "L. Veldhuis" Veldhuis opened under the gun to 20,500 and action folded to "Kappustahead" who moved in all their 132,234 chips. Veldhuis called and hands were tabled.

Lex "L. Veldhuis" Veldhuis: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
"Kappustahead": {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}

The flop came {4-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} and the case king came on the {k-Hearts} turn to leave "Kappustahead" drawing dead on the meaningless {3-Diamonds} river, sending Veldhuis the chips and sending him to the top ten on the leaderboard.
