The final break of the day just started. Play will resume in 15 minutes and there's just one level left to play.

Oh Hey Mister Nevanlinna

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Master Classics of Poker Main Event runner up from 2011 Jussi Nevanlinna was just spotted winning a pot. The flop read {Q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{5-Spades} and Nevanlinna checked to Martin Kabrhel who bet 2,800 from the cutoff. Dominik Nitsche raised from the button to 7,000 and Nevanlinna called from the big blind. Kabrhel tanked for a bit and folded.

The turn brought the {6-Hearts} and both players checked. On the river the {3-Hearts} hit and Nevanlinna fired out 26,000. Nitsche folded and the Finnish pro took down the pot.

Voth Really Can't Lose

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Ronny Voth made waves in the Main Event and now he's making tsunamis in the High Roller Event. His table broke and he moved to his new table and dispatched of Sorel Mizzi in quick fashion.

Voth opened to 3,500 from second position and faced a three-bet to 7,700 from Mizzi in the next seat. The action folded back around to Voth who four-bet to 21,500. Mizzi wasn't finished though and five-bet to 45,500 only for Voth to shove after looking at his stack. Mizzi shrugged and called all in for around 135,000.

Voth: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Mizzi: {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}

The board ran {8-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{2-Hearts}{q-Spades}{4-Diamonds}.

Voth's kings held in another big pot and he's far clear at the top of the counts as a result.

Mandavia's Queens Hold Up

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Paul Volpe raised to 3,200 from middle position after which Jan-Peter Jachtmann called from the cutoff. Ankush Mandavia three-bet to 10,300 from the button and both blinds folded. Volpe gave up his cards and only Jachtmann made the call.

The flop brought {3-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{7-Spades} and Jachtmann checked to Mandavia who fired out 13,000. Jachtmann thought about it for a while and decided to put his opponent all in. Mandavia snap-called for a total of 46,900.

Ankush Mandavia: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}
Paul Volpe: {K-Spades}{J-Spades}

The board ran out {2-Diamonds}, {6-Hearts} and Mandavia doubled up. Here are the chip counts of this table after the hand.

Voth Can't Lose

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

The board showed {8-Spades}{6-Clubs}{2-Clubs} when Ronny Voth called a bet in position worth 12,000. On the turn the {9-Clubs} hit and Voth called 30,000. The river brought the {Q-Hearts} and his opponent decided to move all in for 56,900. Voth tanked for a bit and called.

Voth's opponent showed {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs} after which the German slammed his {7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} on the table for a straight. Voth busted another player and is now a part of the top three with a commanding lead over the rest of the field.

Voth Over-Bet Works to Trap Sekularac

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

PokerNews ran into Ognjen Sekularac and he was saying how he was over 200,000 only for a few annoying pots to go against him. He thought it was a break so was going to clear his head. After he realised that the break wasn't for another level he sat back down and immediately lost a massive pot with a hero river call.

Ronny Voth raised to 2,400 from the cut-off and was called by Sekularac and Timothy Adams in the big blind. The flop fanned {a-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} and Adams led for 3,600. Both players called to see the {5-Spades} turn and Voth bet 13,500 when the action got to him. Only Sekularac called.

Things got really interesting on the {9-Hearts} river as Voth bet a massive 90,000. It represented most of the Serbian's remaining stack and required deep thought. After a few minutes he asked Voth if he would show one card if he folded. No response came. After another minute Sekularac called and saw Voth slam down {2-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} for a full house.

Sekularac nodded, mucked and shook his head that is clearly not in a clear place right now.

Cold Four-Bet City

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Play has not slowed down for a second all day and we just witnessed two simultaneous cold four-bets on opposite tables.

Martin Kabrhel raised from the cutoff after which Chris Brammer three-bet to 6,000 from the button. The small blind folded and Martin Jacobson four-bet shoved from the big blind for 31,700. Kabrhel folded immediately and Brammer followed suit after about 30 seconds of hesitation.

On the other table it was Faraz Jaka who raised to 2,600 from the hijack and Henri Kettunen three-bet to 7,100 from the cutoff. Igor Kurganov had the button and he used his position to four-bet to 16,500. Both his opponents folded and Kurganov took down this pot.
