Kai Cocklin

Level 13 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Vasyl Duravkin opened the button to 6,000 then Grigoli Liklikadze shoved from the small blind for around 55,000. Levon Arakelyan then reshoved out of the big blind for a little more, and Duravkin folded.

Grigoli Liklikadze: A♦9♣ All in
Levon Arakelyan: A♠Q♥

The runout of 8♥K♠10♠7♠10♦ brought no help to Liklikadze which meant he was sent to the rail.

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante

With 40,000 chips already in the pot on a board of 5♥4♦2♦J♦, Evgenii Kharlov checked it over to Aben Zholgaliyev, who bet 15,000. Kharlov called.

The Q♣ completed the runout and Kharlov checked once again, then faced a bet of 35,000 from Zholgaliyev. Kharlov had taken his time to call on the turn but didn't need much more than a few seconds on the river to act, and he folded.

Kan Doubles Through Saiapin

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Dmitrii Kan raised the button to 4,500 and Iurii Saiapin three-bet the small blind to 21,000. Once the big blind folded, Kan called.

On the 3♠6♥A♥ flop, Saiapin bet 25,000, and Kan quickly called.

A 4♣ fell on the turn and Saiapin counted out a bet of 50,000 then put it into the pot. Kan moved all in for 71,000 total, and Saiapin called.

Dmitrii Kan: 5♥2♥ All in
Iurii Saiapin: A♦Q♦

Saiapin was drawing dead as Kan turned an unbeatable straight. Kan did improve further on the K♥ river as he made a flush, but it was meaningless as the pot was already his.

Player	Chips	Progress
Dmitrii Kan	235,000 15,000	15,000
Iurii Saiapin	60,000 60,000	60,000
