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 8 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Heads-up on a board of 8♣5♥4♦9♥, Adam Wilkinson bet 3,500 from the big blind and Terence Jordon raised to 15,000 in the cutoff. Wilkinson then moved all in for 25,000.

"Ah, you bastard," Jordon said as he quickly called. Wilkinson showed 9♠6♦ for top pair, while Jordon had 6♥3♥.

"I thought I was good here. I need a heart," Jordon said, standing up from his seat and pretending to shoot an arrow at the board as the dealer turned over the river card. The 2♠ wasn't the heart he was looking for, but Jordon did improve to a straight to win the pot and send Wilkinson to the rail.

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.
