Ryan Lashmar

Level 27 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Jeppe Bisgaard moved all in from the button for 705,000 and Santiago Plante called for slightly less in the small blind to put himself at risk.

Jeppe Bisgaard: K♥J♥

Both players caught a pair on the A♦J♦9♥ flop with Santiago having the better of the situation. He remained ahead on the 9♦A♥ turn and river to secure a full double up while leaving Bisgaard, who would be eliminated not long after this hand, with just under one big blind.

Level 27 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Daniel Herrera opened to 200,000 from under the gun and Marius Lussi moved all in from middle position for approximately 600,000. Herrera made the call with a covering stack.

Marius Lussi: A♣8♣
Daniel Herrera: K♣10♣

Lussi was in great shape to secure the double up and remained so on the 6♠5♠4♣ flop and Q♦ turn. That all changed when the river brought the 10♥, giving Herrera a pair of tens to eliminate Lussi and take down the pot.
