Action folded to Scott Seiver in the small blind and he raised to 17,000. The entire table was drawn to attention when they saw how large Seiver had raised, especially Vanessa Selbst in the big blind. After some thought, Selbst called.
The two players then checked the action on each street as the board ran out 
and went to a showdown. Seiver showed the 
for a pair of eights, but lost to the 
for Selbst as she hit a pair of aces.
We missed the hand, but Masa Kagawa doubled up with pocket aces through Dan Smith. Smith was crushed in the pot and knocked all the way down to just 20,000 in chips. Kagawa doubled to 455,000.

Bill Perkins has been eliminated. When we caught up with the action, there was a massive pot in the middle of the table between Perkins and Team PokerStars Pro Jonathan Duhamel. The board read 
and Perkins check-called all in. Duhamel tabled the 
for trip kings and Perkins mucked his hand.
Almost immediately, Perkins found the VIP Host and asked how to rebuy. He had another €100,000 wired over and will be back in this thing shortly.
