Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Our access to the feature table is limited, but we caught parts of two massive hands. In the first, Dimitar Danchev and Gautam Sabharwal were heads up on a board of . There was 155,000 in the middle, and Danchev moved all in for 145,000 over a 30,000-chip bet from Sabharwal. Sabharwal tanked for over three minutes, then called.

Danchev showed for a set of threes, and Sabharwal mucked.

A few hands later, Faraz Jaka eliminated Michael Tureniec. Jaka's cracked Tureniec's (we're not sure when the chips went in), and Tureniec was eliminated.
