Level 25 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Stanley Lee
Stanley Lee

A player moved all in for 255,000 on the button and Stanley Lee called in the big blind.

Button: {j-Clubs}{10-Spades}
Stanley Lee: {a-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}

The board ran out {8-Hearts}{8-Spades}{3-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} and Lee's ace-nine with three eights was good to eliminate the button player and bring the players closer to the final three tables.

Valentin Oberhauser

Michael Kenna opened to 100,000 in the hijack and on the button, Valentin Oberhauser three-bet to 350,000 which folded out all other action. Kenna moved all in for 2,100,000 and Oberhauser snap-called.

Cord Garcia: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}
Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}

The board ran out {4-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} and Garcia was eliminated by a rivered flush of his opponent and he left the tournament area.

Federico Roberto

Cody Wiegmann raised to 70,000 from early position and Federico Roberto three-bet to 210,000 from the hijack with all other action folding behind. Wiegmann moved all-in fro 1,400,000 and Roberto snap-called.

Cody Wiegmann: {j-Clubs}{j-Spades}
Federico Roberto: {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

The flop of {j-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{8-Hearts} saw Wiegmann gain the lead with a set of jacks, but the turn {q-Clubs} put Roberto back in front with a set of queens and the river {2-Spades} left Wiemgann's hand behind the queens full and he exited the tournament.

A player raised to 70,000 from late position and in the hijack, Robert Shega three-bet to 190,000 which Jack O'Neill in the cutoff responded too by moving all-in for 725,000 and all other players folded except for Robert Shega who called.

Jack O'Neill: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}
