Hawkins Takes Out Wolszczak With Aces

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

The flop was down {q-Hearts}{10-Spades}{4-Hearts} when Gabriel Wolszczak moved all in and was called by Maurice Hawkins.

Gabriel Wolszczak: {k-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Maurice Hawkins: {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}

Wolszczak hit top pair on the flop, but it wasn't ahead of Hawkin's pocket aces. The turn {8-Hearts} changed nothing, and when the river was revealed to be the {6-Clubs}, Wolszczak was up from his seat and said his goodbyes to the table.

Hawkins collected in the pot and stacked his new 640,000 chip stack.

Arends From Almost Zero to Hero

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Dominik Panka
Dominik Panka

Jans Arends was down to a mere 100,000 but has since added a zero to his chip count. The details of the first double up are unknown, but he then three-bet shoved for 246,000 on the button soon after and was called by Ivan Deyra.

Jans Arends: {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}
Ivan Deyra: {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}

The board came {Q-Spades}{7-Spades}{7-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} and Arends doubled.

But that wasn't all of it just yet. Dominik Panka, who had recently arrived at the table, opened and Arends in the small blind asked for the stack size of Alex Lindop in the blind. "I have 150,000," Lindop replied and Arends jammed again. Lindop folded, but Panka called for around 440,000 to create a one million chip pot.

Dominik Panka: {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}
Jans Arends: {Q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

The board ran out {Q-Spades}{9-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} and Panka was eliminated.

Right after, Lindop in the small blind and Danilo Cangianiello in the big blind got their stacks in with the latter at risk holding {J-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}. Lindop had him dominated with {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} and the board of {J-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} was not enough for Cangianiello.

The action folded around to Maria Konnikova in the small blind, and she moved all in on Roman Emelyanov in the big blind.

Glaser Gets There on the River

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

At the end of the previous level, Yevgeniy Timoshenko raised to 22,000 and Benny Glaser moved all in for 149,000. Matous Houzvicek on the button called and Timoshenko was sent into the think tank. The clock was called on him and he eventually folded.

Benny Glaser: {A-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Matous Houzvicek: {A-Diamonds}{J-Spades}

The board came {Q-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{8-Spades}{10-Diamonds} and Glaser spiked the tenon the river to more than double up.

Akadiri Runs into Ace-Queen to Exit

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

The action folded around to Charles Akadiri on the button, and he moved all in. The player in the small blind folded but Sergei Petrushevskii in the big blind made the call.

Charles Akadiri: {a-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Sergei Petrushevskii: {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

Board: {6-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{2-Spades}{9-Clubs}

It was an unfortunate situation for Akadiri as he saw his ace-ten run into ace-queen, and with no help from the board, he was eliminated after Petrushevskii was confirmed to have the Brit covered.
