Level 14
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Andreas Eiler opened from early position and was raised by Benjamin Pollak who had just doubled up through Higgins. Eiler decided to see how much he valued those newly won chips and bet enough to set him in. Polllak checked his cards and mulled it over. Into the muck they went, not this time.
Pollak Survives
Level 14
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Simon Higgins opened for 6,000 and faced a big blind shove for 40,000 from Benjamin Pollak. Higgins called it off with 
and got the bad news when Pollak showed 
. The cards ran out 
and a chunk of Higgin’s stack slid over to double up Pollak.

That's How You Get to the November Nine
Level 14
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Marc Etienne McLaughlin, who finished sixth in the 2013 World Series of Poker Main Event, found himself all in for 56,300 and in dire straits against Team PokerStars Pro Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier.
McLaughlin: 
Grospellier: 
McLaughlin was in need of a little luck, and he found some as the 
flop delivered him a set. Neither the 
turn nor 
river helped Grospellier and he shipped the double to McLaughlin.
"You can tell everyone that's how he made the final table of the Main Event," Jason Lavallee joked.
McLaughlin smiled and quipped, "Ten times tens versus aces."

Bet the River ElkY
Level 14
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Marc-Etienne Mclaughlin raised from the cut-off to 6,000 and found one caller in the big blind, Team PokerStars Pro Bertrand 'ElkY' Grospellier. The flop was 
and Grospellier led out for 8,100 getting a call from Mclaughlin. Turn card and the betting swapped round. Grospellier check, called a bet of 17,000. The final card was 
and again Grospellier checked only to find a check behind. Grospellier’s 
flush was enough to prompt Martin Kabrhel to shout across “Bet the river Elky.”
Exit Hairabedian
Level 13
: 1,500/3,000, 400 ante
Roger Hairabedian moved all in for change and was called by Emil Ohlsson and Jonathan Little who had position on him. There was nothing Hairabedian could do now but look on and await his fate. The flop was 
. Ohlsson checked and Little bet 20,000. Ohlson made the call and they saw a turn which they both checked. River card and a final check from Ohlsson. Little bet 40,000 and Ohlsson quickly called, sighing in disbelief as his opponent turned over 
for a rivered full house. Hairabedian got up from the table almost unnoticed and his cards were swept into the muck by the dealer unseen.
