Level 14 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

With 180,000 in the middle, Daniel O'Shea was facing a bet from Noman Mirza which was enough to put him all in.

With 130,000 behind, the board read Q♥Q♦K♦10♠J♦ and O'Shea was pondering his decision out loud.

"It's either a chop or you win," said O'Shea before open-folding A♣Q♣.

Moments later, Daniel Veljkovic was all in with A♦K♠ against the J♣J♠ of Jacque Ramsden.

The board came 9♦5♦4♠10♣Q♣ and Veljkovic was eliminated.
Mirza slid his cards forwards face down and won the pot.
