.One-half of one of the two parent-sibling teams in today's field has been eliminated. Assadour Assadourian was all in for 13,900 and called by Guillaume Lignon. Lignon had the short side of a race, tabling
to Assadourian's 
. The board double-paired 
, overcoating Assadourian's pair. Lignon's ace kicker dragged the pot.
and led into Jung with a bet of 25,000. Jung raised all in for a total of 78,400 and was called by Zayneh.Zayneh:

The flop was

landed on the turn to give Assadourian the two-outer to reclaim the lead and leave Jomeen with only one card in the deck to survive. It wasn't to be, as the fell and Jomeen is eliminated as Assadourian is now looking dangerous with over 100,000 chips.
for 10,000 and was called in turn by Mirzikinian and Kim, who had both checked. On the turn , Kim moved all in and was called by both of his opponents for a huge three-way showdown:Kim:
Kambouris:
Mirzikinian:
Mirzikinian had top pair and the second-nut flush draw; Kambouris had bottom set; and Kim had turned a set of jacks. The river fell

The original raiser folded, before the MP player said, "I can't get away from it," before making the call. You can understand why he couldn't get away from his hand as he tabled a powerful
, but he was in great shape against Bechara's .The first four community cards were spread
and Bechara screamed for a six to chop the pot with a straight, and wouldn't you know it, the made an appearance to the roar of the table! They split the pot and Bechara survives!
