Hand #33: From the cutoff, Gilles Bernies with the {K-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} made it 150,000. His neighbor on the button, Dzmitry Urbanovich three-bet {Q-Clubs}{J-Spades} and action folded around to Bernies as Clarke folded queen-jack and Sidhu folded ace-six. Bernies folded.

"If you don't know what to do, you got to fold right?" Bernies said.

Hand #34: Bernies folded ace-six under the gun and Ilios Kamatakis received a walk with {J-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}.

"I think that's the only way I can win, if you guys give me walks." Kamatakis said with a big smile.

Hand #35: In the cutoff, Patrick Clarke made it 150,000 with {K-Hearts}{Q-Spades} and took down the blinds and antes.

Hand #36: From the hijack/under the gun, Patrick Clarke raised to 150,000. In the cutoff, Kully Sidhu three-bet to 380,000. On the button, Ilios Kamatakis found {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs} shoved all in for 740,000. Both blinds and Clarke folded, Sidhu made the call.

The board ran out {2-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} and Kamatakis had his double up locked up on the turn already, despite Sidhu hitting his set on the river.
