Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Yassin Mahmoud moved all in for 155,000 in early position and Nicolas Chouity called from the hijack. Timothy Friese then reshoved for 360,000 in the cutoff as action folded back to Chouity, who tanked for a moment before calling having both opponents covered.

Yassin Mahmoud: K♥7♥
Timothy Friese: 9♦9♠
Nicolas Chouity: A♥J♣

"If you're thinking about it I'm probably all right," Friese said as he turned over his nines. "I was hoping you guys were blocking each other a little more," he added when he saw their cards.

The flop came Q♣A♦10♥ and Chouity took the lead with a pair of aces. The J♦ fell on the turn and Mahmoud made a straight, securing the triple up once the 2♥ fell on the river.

"Oh my God," he repeated as the main pot was pushed his way.

"It's been real," Friese said as he headed off to the payout desk.

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Yannick Schumacher opened to 40,000 on the button and Nikita Kuznetsov three-bet to 160,000 in the small blind. [Removed:553] then four-bet to 310,000 in the big blind and both of his opponents folded in unison.

The table speculated that Simon had ace-four or ace-five, but he only showed the A♣ to leave them guessing.

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Harald Sammer and Suat Uyanik were heads-up on a flop of Q♣10♣5♥ when Uyanik moved all in from the big blind. Sammer practically beat him into the top and called for his last 275,000.

Harald Sammer: Q♦10♦
Suat Uyanik: K♥Q♥

"Did you say call even before he finished," tablemate Victor Yugay joked as Sammer had two pair against Uyanik's top pair. The board ran out 3♠2♠ and Sammer earned a double up.

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Priit Parmasto jammed for 300,000 from the small blind and Marian Virlanuta called off his remaining 285,000 from the big blind.

Marian Virlanuta: A♣3♠
Priit Parmasto: A♠K♦

The 3♦ was in the window but was followed by the K♥4♦ to keep Parmasto ahead. The 5♣ turn brought in some chop outs but the 9♦ river confirmed Virlanuta's exit.

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Giovani Torre and Siarhei Chudapal were heads-up on a flop of 2♣8♠K♦ and Torre had all but his last two blue 5,000 chips committed to the pot.

He began tanking before Chudapal called the clock. The floor then came to the table and told Torre since he had less than one big blind left he wouldn't be allowed to use any more time banks and would be given only a five-second clock every subsequent street.

Both players checked to the 8♥ turn where Torre tossed in his last chips. Chudapal called with 3♠3♥, while Torre had A♦6♦. The river came the 7♦ and Chudapal's pair of threes were enough to send Torre to the rail.

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Nathan Tetart opened to 40,000 under the gun holding A♣2♣ and Dario Sammartino defended in the big blind with Q♦5♦.

Both players connected with the Q♥4♣5♣ flop with Sammartino making top two pair and Tetart flopping both a flush and straight draw. Sammartino checked and Tetart checked as well.

On the 3♠ turn Sammartino bet 65,000 and Tetart just called with his turned straight.

Sammartino bet again on the 4♥ river, this time for 165,000, leaving just 210,000 behind. Tetart moved all in with a covering stack sending Sammartino into the tank.

After using two time extensions Sammartino correctly folded his two pair and Tetart took down a nice pot just before the break.
