Bixi Yao raised to 18,000 in the cutoff and Jonathan Mccann defended from the big blind. The flop came K♥K♣J♣ and Mccann check-called a bet of 10,000 from Yao.

The turn was the 3♠ and Mccann checked again. Yao sized up a bet of 35,000 and Mccann still called. The 8♦ completed the board and Mccann checked for the third time. Yao counted out a bet of 45,000, the majority of her stack. Mccann went deep into the tank, using all four of his time banks, before finally folding.

Nikolai Mamut was the shortest stack in the room with just 12,500 chips and he pushed all in from under the gun. Francis Obadun called on his left and Young Seo Yoon came along from the small blind.

The flop came 7♥6♦5♣ and the action checked through to the 8♠ on the turn and the A♥ on the river. Mamut turned over Q♠5♥ for a pair of fives which turned out to be the best hand against K♥10♦ and J♦2♣.

Level 17 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

On the feature table, Eliran Argelazi opened to 10,000 and "PO" shoved all in for 40,000 on his left. The action folded back to Argelazi who quickly called as the big stack.

"PO": 9♠9♥

Next door, Wanja Postel got the last of his chips in the middle with pocket kings on the turn with the board reading 8♦3♣2♣7♦. He was called by Raymond Caabay who turned over J♦3♦. The river was the Q♦ and Caabay made a flush to eliminate Postel.
