Level 22
: 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
We've hit the end of another level and the beginning of another break. We'll be back in 15 minutes.
The Gods Must Be Crazy
Marton Czuczor raised first into the pot from the cutoff seat, and Carlos Yerbes Gonzalez gave him action, coming along from the big blind as one of the shorter stacks left.
The dealer spread out a 
flop, and Gonzalez let Czuczor bet 38,000 before check-raising to 138,000. He only had 201,000 left behind, and Czuczor considered for ages before reraising all in over the top. Gonzalez couldn't have called any quicker, and the cards were soon shown down. Czuczor flipped over 
first, and Gonzalez let out a a bit of a teasing cackle, flipped up 
, and celebrated with his friends nearby on the rail.
The turn 
was a blank, and it left Czuczor drawing dead to the last two fives in the deck. As if a punishment for his premature celebration, though, the poker gods dropped the 
off on the river, sending a frustrated Gonzalez spiraling to the rail. Czuczor knew it was pretty dirty, and he politely waited until his freshly eliminated opponent paced away before allowing a broad grin to come across his face.
That knockout gives the Hungarian a big chip boost, and he's approaching 900,000 now as we are down to the final 28 players.

More TV Table Action
Level 22
: 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
The TV table seems to be producing the most action at the moment which is a little annoying as access is still hard.
Martin Schleich just doubled-up Andras Kovacs to around 320,000 chips after they got it all in on a 
flop. Schleich's 
failed to avoid the outs required by Kovacs' 
. The turn and river ran out 
to make the flush.
He's a Twin and Has a Double
Level 22
: 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Team PokerStars Pro Matthias De Meulder has doubled-up at the feature table. Again, we have limited information, but we do know he had pocket kings and got action from Andres Kovacs with pocket nines. The kings held up and the Belgian is up to 1,400,000. We think Kovac is down to less than 200,000.
Contreras with a Big Five-Bet Shove
Sigurd Andreas Eskeland raised from the hijack seat to 37,000 and Javier Contreras reraised to 86,000 from the cutoff seat. In the small blind sat Raul Mestre and he four-bet to 158,000. Action folded back around to Contreras and he five-bet all in for 1.215 million in chips. Mestre tanked for a couple minutes, but finally folded his hand.

Level 22
: 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Javier Contreras checked the 
flop to Vadzim Kursevich. He bet 50,000 and Contreras made the call to see the 
land on the turn. Both players checked this street and the 
hit the river. Contreras fired 77,000 and Kursevich folded.
No Victory for Vicinanza
Level 22
: 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Giovanni Vicinanza has just been eliminated from the feature table. Lack of access means we only have vague details. What we do know is that he held 
and was eliminated by the much larger stacked Marcos Fernandez holding 
.
