Level 18 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Patrik Antonius opened to 20,000 in the cutoff before Rory Jennings moved all in for 216,000 on the button. Jennings had lost a good portion of his stack in a previous hand and was at risk after Antonius called.

Rory Jennings: A♦10♠
Patrik Antonius: A♠K♣

Jennings could not catch up on the 7♦6♠J♦ flop, but the 2♦ turn brought a flush draw. The dealer then turned over the J♣ on the river, sending Jennings to the rail.

Level 18 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Marius Iftimia opened to 16,000 from under the gun and was three-bet to 44,000 by Julio Chia Cabrera in the hijack. Action folded back around to Iftimia, who announced he was all in for around 120,000 total. Cabrera quickly called and hands were revealed.

Marius Iftimia: A♥A♣
Julio Chia Cabrera: J♥J♣

Iftimia was in good shape to double with his rockets, but the 5♠7♦J♦ flop vaulted Cabrera into the lead with a set of jacks.

The 7♠ turn and 8♥ river failed to improve Iftimia and he was eliminated.
