In the closing minutes of Level 10, there were to big hands that took place. Have a look.
Hand #1: A short-stacked Timothy Adams moved all in for 96,000 under the gun and Mike Watson, who was seated to his direct left, made the call. The rest of the players folded and the cards were turned up.
Adams: 
Watson: 
It was a bad spot for Adams, but the 
flop gave him a lot of hope as he paired his ten and picked up a flush draw. Some in poker would say it was "too many outs" to hit, and indeed that proved the case as the 
blanked on the turn followed by the 
on the river. Adams, who took fourth in this very event last year for €485,100, was eliminated from the tournament.
Hand #2: Fabian Quoss opened from the button only to have Alec Torelli three-bet to 54,000 from the small blind. The big folded, Quoss moved all in for 312,000, and Torelli wasted little time in making the call.
Quoss: 
Torelli: 
It was a flip, and the proverbial coin came down in favor of Quoss after the board ran out a dry

We saw Jeff Rossiter exit the tournament area. We asked him what had happened and he was polite enough to fill us in.
According to Rossiter, Daniel Cates had minraised the hijack. Rossiter, who was on the button with about 185,000, raised it up to 40,000. Cates shoved, Rossiter called and the innevitable show down was there.
Cates had 
and beat Rossiter's 
. No improvement for Rossiter who made his way to the rail right before the first break.

Daniel Colman opened for 18,000 from early position and Full Tilt Poker Professional Gus Hansen made the call from the small blind.
Just the two players had a stake in the 
flop and Hansen chose to lead out at it for 27,000. Colman had been the preflop aggressor and raise him to 62,000.
Hansen now counted down his stack, jiggling in his seat and rubbing his head before four-betting to 173,000.
“Hundred seventy three total?” Colmann asked and it was confirmed. He then announced all in and had Hansen easily covered. Hansen didn’t make an instant decision but the one he came to would be one that he may regret as he called and tabled 
. Colman had flopped two pair with 
The turn card 
and river 
saw Hansen last just under two hours of the Super High Roller.

Having doubled up Phil Ivey in the previous hand, Johannes Strassmann moved all in for 195,000 over the top of Mike McDonald's initial 18,000 raise. McDonald weighed up his options for about a minute before saying, "Ok, I call."
Strassmann: 
McDonald: 
The flop was 
and Strassmann's position was secure so far. The on the turn gave McDonald the nut flush draw, any heart other than the four of hearts would now give the Canadian the win. The came on the river completing McDonald's flush and Strassmann was knocked out as a result.

Vanessa Selbst: 
Antonio Esfandiari: 
"I thought I was gonna win this one" said Selbst with a tempered but relaxed voice after the board ran out: 
. The king on the river felted Selbst, now just Negreanu remains for Team PokerStars Pro.
