Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Sam Cohen
Sam Cohen

The money went all in preflop between Sam Cohen and Chane Kampanatsanyakorn. Cohen had {k-Spades}{10-Spades} against Kampanatsanyakorn's {a-Spades}{q-Spades} and she needed some help. She wouldn't find it as the board came {6-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{4-Hearts} and leaves the tournament as the 3rd-place finisher.

With Cohen's elimination, the heads up battle between Kampanatsanyakorn and Christian Haggart will commence shortly.

Two Pair For Kampanatsanyakorn

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Chane Kampanatsanyakorn raised from the button to 100,000 and Sam Cohen called from the big blind.

The flop brought {Q-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} and Cohen checked to Kampanatsanyakorn who bet 100,000 again. Cohen did not waste much time as she quickly moved all in and Kampanatsanyakorn snap-called.

Kampanatsanyakorn: {Q-Spades}{10-Spades}
Cohen: {K-Clubs}{9-Hearts}

The board ran out {7-Hearts}, {K-Hearts} and Kampanatsanyakorn found himself another double up leaving Cohen as the short stack. Last year Kampanatsanyakorn finished second in this event and he's still in the running to improve on that result.

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Shinya Umano
Shinya Umano

Action folded around to Christian Haggart on the button who raised to 100,000. Shinya Umano was next to act and reraised all in. Before the chips could be counted, Haggart announced "call" and turned over {k-Spades}{10-Spades}. Umano was ahead going to the flop with {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}.

The board came {j-Hearts}{j-Spades}{9-Spades} and it was the {10-Hearts} turn that gave Haggart the lead. There was no help for Umano on the river, which was {6-Clubs}, and he leaves the tournament as our fourth-place finisher.

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Action folded around to Chane Kampanatsanyakorn on the button who went all in for his final 275,000. Winfred Yu made the call from the small blind and as he did Kampanatsanyakorn grimaced.

When the hands were turned over Kampanatsanyakorn found himself behind holding {q-Spades}{4-Spades} and was up against Yu's {k-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}.
The board ran out {5-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{q-Clubs} and the river gave Kampanatsanyakorn the double.
