Level 19 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Kasparas Klezys raised his button to 200,000, facing a three-bet of 640,000 once it got around to Daniel Tordjman in the big blind. Klezys called to the 5♠10♥9♥ flop, where he also called Tordjman's continuation-bet of 1,000,000.

Tordjman then announced a pot-sized bet of 3,400,000 on the 3♣ turn, getting a quick fold from Klezys.

The next hand, Klezys and Tordjman clashed again. Three-way on a flop of Q♦10♥4♦, Tordjman cold three-bet all-in after Klezys had raised a bet. Klezys called off his stack of 3,500,000, and the cards hit their backs.

Kasparas Klezys: Q♠J♦J♣10♦ All in
Daniel Tordjman: K♠Q♥Q♣9♠

Klezys's top two pair was drawing very thin against the set of Tordjman. The 2♣4♠ runout could not save Klezys, seeing Tordjman win the monster pot and start the final table with an enormous lead.

Level 18 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Kasparas Klezys kicked off the action with a raise to 175,000 as first to act. Leon Freiholz sat in the cutoff and three-bet to 570,000, which Klezys four-bet to 1,800,000 once it got back to him.

Freiholz then went all in for Klezys' stack of 2,950,000. Klezys took some time to think things over, but eventually decided he was committed and made the call.

Kasparas Klezys: K♥K♣10♣9♠ All in
Leon Freiholz: A♠A♣7♥6♠

It was looking grim for Klezys' kings after the 2♦J♣4♦ flop, but the 9♣ turn provided him with a plethora of outs. The 2♣ river was one of them, making him a flush and doubling him up to a massive 100 big blinds.

Picking up the action on a turn of 4♥2♦Q♥J♣, Leon Freiholz checked to Daniel Tordjman under the gun. Tordjman fired a bet of 500,000 into a pot 850,000, which Freiholz called.

The river brought the J♠. Freiholz checked again and quickly faced an all-in bet from Tordjman. Freiholz quickly called for his stack of 1,660,000 and tabled K♣Q♣4♦2♠ for queens and jacks.

Tordjman only flashed his cards briefly before adding them to the muck, complimenting his opponent's call and paying him off.

Lautaro Guerra three-bet to 570,000 on the button after Tom-Aksel Bedell had made it 160,000 to go under the gun. It folded back to Bedell, who called.

Lautaro Guerra: A♠K♣2♠2♣ All in
Tom-Aksel Bedell: A♦K♦6♥6♣

Daniel Tordjman: K♥K♣7♦6♥

"It's always aces," Tordjman noted. The 9♣8♥3♣ flop gave him a straight draw for some extra outs, but the J♠8♣ runout provided no extra help for the chipleader, doubling up Palekythritis.
