Dominykas Karmazinas

Denys Shafikov raised to 160,000 from the hijack and Lithuanian Dominykas Karmazinas three-bet all in for 1,265,000 from the button. Amir Touma was next to act in the small blind, and he re-shoved for more than four million. Shafikov folded and Karmazinas was at risk of being knocked out.

Touma: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}
Karmazinas: {J-Spades}{J-Clubs}

The board ran out {9-Spades}{K-Spades}{10-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} and Karmazinas hit the rail in 14th place.

The Outer Table Takes it Easy

Level 29 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

While the feature table has seen two eliminations and some other exciting action, the outer table has see no action worth mentioning. Frederik Jensen won a pot preflop by three-betting, but besides that all pots have been rather small.

Shafikov Pushes the Tempo

Level 29 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

We just caught another big pot, as the two remaining Ukrainian players clashed.

On a {5-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{2-Spades} board it was Denys Shafikov bet 225,000 from the small blind and Oleksii Khoroshenin raised to 615,000 from the big blind. Shafikov gave it some thought before making it 1,230,000 and that put Khoroshenin deep into the tank.

After about two and a half minutes the clock was called on Khoroshenin, who took almost the entire minute to fold his cards.

Break

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Players are now on a 20-minute break with 16 players remaining, as there is a full redraw in process.

Roman Korenev Hits the Rail in 17th Place

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante
Roman Korenev
Roman Korenev

Mario Sanchez Cano opened for 125,000 from the cutoff and Roman Korenev in the big blind moved in for 865,000. Cano asked how much it was, and made the call not long after.

Mario Sanchez Cano: {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}
Roman Korenev: {3-Spades}{3-Clubs}

Korenev was still jamming to his music, though we couldn't tell if it was because he was so relaxed or so nervous. He didn't stop humming when the {8-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{6-Spades} flop hit, and neither when the {J-Spades} hit the turn.

The {8-Hearts} fell on the river though and with his counterfeited pair of threes now face down in the muck, Korenev got up from the table and wished the remaining players the best of luck.
