Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante

On the {K-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{9-Hearts} turn, Piotr Franczak check-called a bet of 3,075 by Vladas Tamasauskas and then faced the shove of his opponent for 11,850 on the {3-Diamonds} river. Franczak eventually called and was shown {A-Hearts}{7-Hearts} by Tamasauskas for the nut flush, Franczak had 300 chips left.

Two hands later, the Pole was all in for 250 chips when Francisco Gordillo had raised to 775. Jean-Noel Thorel called in the small blind and Tamasauskas then squeezed to 2,800. Gordillo and Thorel both called and they saw the flop {9-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{2-Spades}. Thorel check-called a bet of 3,300 whereas Gordillo folded.

On the {J-Clubs} turn, Thorel check-called a bet of 5,750 before Tamasauskas emptied the clip on the {5-Spades} river by shoving for 20,300. Thorel had checked and wasted little time before making the call. Tamasauskas sheepishly turned over {K-Hearts}{8-Clubs} for complete air while Thorel had the {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} for top pair and top kicker. Franczak also hit the rail with his {A-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} and the Lithuanian went from hero to zero in five minutes.
