Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
On the last hand of the level at the feature table, picking up the action on a flop of 5♠4♠5♥ and a pot of about 50,000:
Artur Martirosian checked from the cutoff to Andriy Lyubovetskiy on the button, who took his time to bet 25,000. Martirosian called to see the 3♠ on the turn. This time he opted to lead out for 20,000, which Lyubovetskiy called.
The river brought the 2♣ and Martirosian jammed for 266,750, having Lyubovetskiy well covered. Lyubovetskiy took an extended visit to the tank, apologizing to the table for taking so long, before committing his last 96,500 to the pot and revealing A♦A♣ for a wheel.
Martirosian rolled over 2♠2♦ for rivered deuces-full to take the pot, sending Lyubovetskiy to the rail just before the break. With that pot, Martirosian joined those at the top of the leaderboard.

: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
In a heads-up pot with just over 50,000 in the middle on a completed board showing 8♦6♦5♦2♦A♠, Danielle Noja bet 18,000 from the hijack and Aleksejs Ponakovs moved all in for 120,000 next to act. Noja went deep in the tank, contemplating for several minutes.
"Sorry guys I don't usually take this long," said Noja as he was deep in thought.
After close to three minutes, Noja reluctantly let his cards go and the pot was sent to Ponakovs.
"Pick a card," said Ponakovs to Noja who gladly accepted and picked the card nearest to him. Ponakovs rolled over the A♦ and Noja was relieved to have picked the card confirming he made a good fold.

There was some commotion at Table 3 as Christopher Chaudey played a heads-up pot against Yann Helwig on a board of 7♥3♠3♣4♣9♦.
Chaudey bet 7,000 on the river and Helwig paid him off as Chaudey turned over [3h3ds] for flopped quads.
"I promise, before the flop I was praying for quads!" Chaudey said as he raked in the pot.

Andrew Hulme opened to 6,500 in middle position and Samy Boujmala three-bet to 20,000 on his left. The action came back to Hulme who peeled a flop of 6♦3♣2♠.
Hulme check-called a bet of 13,500 from Boujmala and the 3♥ paired the board on the turn. Both players checked and the 10♣ landed on the river. Hulme dropped in a bet of 24,000 and Boujmala quickly sent his cards to the muck.

In a heads-up pot with roughly 20,000 in the middle on a board showing J♦7♦3♣Q♣, Parker Talbot bet out 20,000 from the small blind and Vicente Delgado moved all in for 67,000 in the big blind. Talbot snap-called with a bigger stack to put Delgado at risk and the cards were tabled.
Vicente Delgado: 10♣9♣
Parker Talbot: J♣3♦
Talbot was ahead with his two pair but would need to dodge the straight and flush draw for Delgado. The river fell the 5♣ to give Delgado the flush and full double up off Talbot.
