Level 11 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

David Hudson raised to 3,200 in the hijack and Francisco Salvador three-bet to 8,500 in the cutoff. Yuzhou Yin then four-bet to 15,300 in the small blind, Hudson got out of the way, but Salvador stuck in a pile of chips for a reraise. Yin instantly announced all in and Salvador called just as quickly.

Yuzhou Yin: K♦K♠ All in
Francisco Salvador: A♦K♣

Salvador was looking for an ace to overcome Yin's kings and got his wish on the A♠7♦3♥ flop. The rest of the board ran out 10♦8♣ to secure Salvador the pot.

The stacks were counted down and Salvador had 53,000 remaining. Yin was barely covered and sent off to the exit.

Level 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

There was around 15,000 in the pot as Jack Hardcastle and Terence Jordon went to the turn on a board of 3♥A♥10♣6♣. Hardcastle then bet 14,500 from the button and Jordon moved all in from middle position.

Hardcastle tanked for a moment but eventually called for his last 40,000, turning over A♠J♦ for top pair. Jordon, though, had 6♦6♠ for a turned set and Hardcastle was already drawing dead. The 10♦ river improved Jordon to a full house and sent Hardcastle to the rail.

"So well disguised," a tablemate said to Jordon.

Christopher Guertin: 8♣8♠ All in
Stewart Davie: 10♠10♥

Level 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Action folded to Nick Eastwood in the small blind who raised to 4,000. Richard Heveli came along from the big blind and they saw a flop of Q♣9♣5♥.

Eastwood continued for 5,700 and Heveli called. Both players then checked the 10♥ turn.

Eastwood also checked the 8♣ river and Heveli bet 15,000. Eastwood snap-called with Q♦J♦ for top pair, while Heveli could only show A♣6♦ for ace-high as he mucked.

"If you shove there, I'm hating my life," Eastwood told him.

Level 9 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Maogen Fu raised to 2,000 on the button, Jonathan Bannerman three-bet to 8,500 in the small blind, and Fu called.

Bannerman continued for 5,000 on the Q♥4♦6♣ flop and Fu called. The turn was the 3♣ and Bannerman bet another 8,000.

Fu again called to see the J♣ river, where Bannerman moved all in for 20,100. Fu quickly called.

"I've got tens," Bannerman said, already knowing he was beat and getting up from his seat. Fu, the High Roller champion from earlier this series, confirmed his suspicions by turning over Q♠9♠ for top pair, while the dealer exposed Bannerman's 10♠10♦ as he made his exit from the table.

Level 7 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Marius Varanavicius was on the button with a raise of 5,500 in front of him before Stewart Davie reraised to 16,000 in early position. Varanavicius called and they saw a flop of K♣J♦9♣.

Davie then moved all in for 32,000 and Varanavicius confirmed the amount before calling, creating a pot worth nearly 100,000.

Stewart Davie: Q♠Q♦ All in
Marius Varanavicius: A♠A♣

Varanavicius was ahead with his aces and poised for the massive knockout as the J♥ fell on the turn. The river, though, was the 10♦ and Davie improved to a straight for a miraculous double up that puts him among the biggest stacks in the room.

Level 6 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

Bogdan Pop raised to 1,000 under the gun and Marius Varanavicius called in early position. Ricardo Mateus then moved all in for 3,500 in the hijack and Stewart Davie called on the button, as did Pop and Varanavicius.

All three players checked down the Q♦6♣A♥2♥8♣ board. Varanavicius showed first and turned over 7♦7♥.

"Okay, so far I'm good," Mateus said.

"I have a queen," Pop added.

"Which queen?" Mateus asked, and Pop showed Q♠10♠. Mateus, though, had K♦Q♣ and won the pot with his king-kicker to quadruple up.
