Level 13 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

After a limp from Howard Xu under-the-gun, Alex Green opened to 7,000 and was called by two players before Xu limp-raised to 48,000, leaving just 3,000 behind.

Green then moved all in himself which produced folds from the other two players while Xu tossed in his remaining chips.

Howard Xu: 5♦5♣2♥2♠ All in
Alex Green: K♠K♣Q♦8♣

Xu would need to improve to stay alive, and the flop of 3♠4♣7♠ gave him an open-ender, but the runout of J♥3♥ could not get him there and he was eliminated while Green collected the pot.

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 2,000 ante

Alejandro Jauregui opened to 10,000, Alex Green raised to 45,000 and Vladyslav Shovkovyi called. Then Jauregui four-bet to 187,000 and after some thought, Green stuck the rest of his stack in for 200,000.

Then the action was on Shovkovyi, who tanked for almost two minutes before he moved all in for 209,000. Jauregui quickly called to put both players at risk and the hands were tabled in the chip-lead pot.

Alex Green: A♣K♣Q♦5♦ All in
Vladyslav Shovkovyi: K♠J♦10♠9♥ All in
Alejandro Jauregui: A♦A♥10♣6♠

Jauregui was in the lead with his aces, but the flop of 7♦6♥4♦ gave Green a flush draw. The turn A♠ further strengthened Jauregui's holding with top set, but a miracle 8♠ smacked down on the river to give Shovkovyi the gutshot for the nut straight!

He was then awarded the massive pot to propel him into the chip lead while Green headed to the exit and Jauregui was left short.

Player	Chips	Progress
Vladyslav Shovkovyi	630,000 630,000	630,000

Alejandro Jauregui	95,000 91,000	91,000
