Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

There were some gasps over on table eight as Nino Pansier scored a knockout to get well above the average. Victim of the hand was Keon Yong Ma, who was covered by a few big blinds. Pansier had put his hopes on K♣9♣ for a flush draw after the A♠Q♣3♣5♥ turn. The 2♣ came on the river to complete the flush and send Ma to the rail.

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Satoshi Sugimoto was all-in with a short stack and the A♦2♦ to find himself dominated by an opponent with the A♥Q♦.

Things got dire on the K♥Q♠10♥ flop and 4♥ turn but the J♠ river came to the rescue.

"Just go all-in and pray," Sugimoto joked upon his fortunate escape.

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Bonifacio Mondalo raised and called a three-bet by Yuta Tanabe. The two players checked down the J♦4♦4♠J♥6♥ board and Tanabe tabled his A♥10♥, which won the pot. Having started among the shorter stacks, Tanabe is one of the chip leaders in the field after one and a half levels.
