SM opened to 120,000 with the A♠10♦ and Sugen Singh three-bet in the big blind without the cards displayed, making it 360,000 to go. SM called to see the A♣Q♠10♥ flop on which Singh bet 325,000 and instantly folded when SM raised to 825,000.

Sugen Singh made it 135,000 to go on the button with the 10♦6♦ and MAJ called in the big blind with J♣10♥. The J♥J♦7♣ flop saw MAJ hit trips and he check-called for 150,000. Singh was not done yet as he also bet the 5♠ turn for 230,000 when checked to, MAJ called.

After the Q♥ river, MAJ check-called for 315,000 and once again won a very nice pot with yet another successful trap.

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Chip leader SM opened to 120,000 with the 5♥4♠ and David Ng just called with the A♣10♦ in the small blind, Danny Dayani called the Q♥3♥ in the big blind. The 7♠6♣3♠ flop gave SM the straight and it checked to Dayani, who bet 175,000 with his bottom pair.

SM just called and Ng then raised to 400,000 with ace-high. Dayani let go and SM flat-called with the current nuts.

The K♠ turn brought a possible flush out there and Ng checked. SM applied maximum pressure and moved all-in to earn a snap-fold.

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Sugen Singh opened to 130,000 with the K♠10♠ and was called by Gareth Kalil in the small blind, who had the 10♣6♣. Norman Cherry defended the 5♦5♥ in the big blind.

The K♣6♦2♣ flop saw Kalil shove for 770,000 into a pot of 440,000 and Cherry got out of the way.

Singh needed an extra time bank but called with the top pair, then all but closed his eyes.

The 10♦ turn and 3♥ river sealed the fate for Kalil, as he bowed out in 8th place.

Player	Chips	Progress
Sugen Singh	3,100,000 395,000	395,000
Norman Cherry	645,000 -355,000	-355,000

Gareth Kalil opened to 155,000 from under the gun with the A♣Q♣ and MAJ just called in the big blind with A♥A♦. The K♥Q♠3♠ flop was checked by MAJ and Kalil checked back. On the 9♦ turn, MAJ set the trap further and checked again. Kalil bet 475,000 and then called the shove by MAJ for 720,000 total within a fraction of a second.

The ultimate deception worked out perfectly for MAJ and he held on for the double with the 7♦ river.
