Level 39 : 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante

Hand #56: It folded round to small blind Ben Underwood, who set the shortest-stacked player Joao Valli all in. He declined to call.

Hand #57: Santiago Soriano raised to 2,000,000, picking up Lehavot in the big blind as a caller. Soriano bet 2,000,000 on the flop of {10-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Hearts} and that was all it took to claim another swiftly-played pot.

Hand #58: Underwood took a turn raising to 2,000,000, but was three-bet to 7,000,000 by Nick Blackburn in the big blind and let his hand go.

Hand #59: Valli raised to 3,000,000 on the button, no callers.

Hand #44: It folded to NickBlackburn in the small blind, who called the extra 500,000 Soriano raised to 3,500.000 call. On the {q-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} flop, Blackburn check-raised Soriano's bet of 2,700,000 to 7,500,000 and won the pot.

Hand #45: Joao Valli shoved for 8,100,000 first to speak with no interest shown in taking him on for his tournament life.

Hand #46: Santiago Soriano on the button shipped his full 22,700,000 in the middle, again, not a whisper of a call.

Hand #47: Soriano raised in the cutoff, this time to 2,000,000 and took the pot.

Hand #48: With the same bet as the last hand, Soriano opened to 2,000,000 from the hijack, Ben Underwood shoved for 22,200,000 and Soriano folded, along with everyone else.

Hand #49: Underwood opened for 2,200,000 under the gun, called by Soriano in the big blind. The flop brought {3-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{4-Hearts} and another barrel from Underwood, this time for 1,900,000. Soriano check-raised to 5,900,000; call. The turn paired the ten with the {10-Diamonds}. A pause, then a check from Soriano and a bet of 4,000,000 from Underwood, at which point Soriano gave up his cards and the pot.

Samuel Gagnon Eliminated in 6th Place ($70,813)

Level 39 : 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
Samuel Gagnon
Samuel Gagnon

Hand #43: In the first hand after the break, Samuel Gagnon shoved all in for 6,100,000 on the button. Santiago Soriano called in the big blind.

Samuel Gagnon: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}
Santiago Soriano: {5-Clubs}{4-Clubs}

The Canadian demonstratively slapped his aces open onto the felt and was in a great spot to double-up. However, the Spanish train is unstoppable today and kept rolling on as a devastating {6-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop was dealt, giving Soriano a straight. The {q-Clubs} on the turn and {7-Clubs} on the river even improved him further to a flush, and Gagnon was eliminated just like that.

Benjamin Underwood
Benjamin Underwood

Hand #37: Benjamin Underwood raised to 1,600,000, called by Nick Blackburn in the big blind, as has been his wont, prompting Underwood to say, "Oh no! Fold now, I guess..."

He did not end up folding, but betting 1,500,000 when Blackburn checked to him on a {a-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} flop. Blackburn threw away his {5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}.

Hand #38: Samuel Gagnon found another spot to move all in and did so, again no one keen to take him on.

Hand #39: Blackburn raised his button to 1,800,000 and big blind Underwood made the call to see a {8-Spades}{8-Hearts}{3-Spades} flop. Underwood checked, Blackburn bet 2,200,000, then Underwood threw in a raise - to 4,500,000. A second pot went to Underwood from Blackburn.

Hand #40: Santiago Soriano raised to 1,600,000 on the button and won the blinds and ante.

Hand #41: Nick Blackburn opened for 2,000,000 and won some of his own.

Hand #42: Amir received another walk from Daniele D'Angelo.
