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

Ricardo Graells shoved from under the gun for 58,000. His only caller was Roei Siman Tov in the small blind.

Ricardo Graells: Q♥J♠
Roei Siman Tov: A♥8♥

The flop came 4♣10♠K♠ giving Graells an open-ended straight draw but still leaving him behind.

A 4♠ on the turn did nothing to change the situation.

The 9♣ river was far more consequential, giving Graells a straight and keeping him in the tournament.

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

Massimo Armenio raised to 18,000 from under the gun and Nikola Radevic called from the next seat over. The action then folded to Karol Bogusz, who jammed all in for 132,000.

Armenio went deep into the tank but eventually slammed in a pile of chips for a call. Radevic got out of the way and a showdown was ordered.

Karol Bogusz: A♥J♣
Massimo Armenio: A♠7♠

Armenio hit his seven on the 2♠7♥K♦ flop, and Bogusz was facing his elimination when the 2♦ turn did not help him. The J♠ river, however, saw him rebink the better pair for the double-up, much to the dismay of Armenio, who outed that both visibly and audibly.

Player	Chips	Progress
Nikola Radevic	282,000 162,000	162,000
Karol Bogusz	202,000 39,000	39,000

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

Andreas Vlachos defended his big blind against Santtu Leinonen's open to 16,000.

Leinonen continued for 16,000 on the 9♣2♦7♦ flop and Vlachos called.

The 2♥ turn was checked through by both players.

On the J♠ river facing another check from Vlachos, Leinonen moved all in for 580,000, a significant overbet. Vlachos considered his position for about a minute and folded.

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

Picking the action up on the river, Vito Vella had defended his big blind against Krzystzstof Wawryniuk.

On a board of 5♦Q♣5♣8♥9♠ and with 60,000 in the middle, Vella check-called a bet of 25,000 from his opponent. Vella showed Q♥7♥ for top pair which was good enough against Wawryniuk's 9♣8♣.

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

Michel Peretti limps in from early position before Raoul Kanme bet 26,000. He was called by Peretti and we went heads up to a flop.

It came 10♥K♣6♠ and both players checked.

Peretti led out on the J♣ turn for 18,000 and was called by the Dutchman.

The A♥ proved to be an action river. Peretti began by checking, before Kanme bet out. His bet was quickly raised all in by the Frenchman, and Kanme snap-called tabling Q♠Q♣. Peretti showed K♦Q♦, with both players rivering a straight and splitting the pot.

Player	Chips	Progress
Michel Peretti	499,000 108,000	108,000
Raoul Kanme	265,000 164,000	164,000

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

Sebastien Depraz shoved for a bit under 100,000 from the hijack and action folded to Davide Muccini in the big blind, who quickly called to put Depraz at risk.

Sebastien Depraz: A♦8♦
Davide Muccini: 9♠9♣

Depraz would need some help to stick around, but the 7♣K♥Q♣4♦4♠ runout kept Muccini's nines best and Depraz was eliminated.

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

On a three-way flop of 6♠K♣9♥ with 84,000 in the middle, Arben Cimilji moved all in for 72,000.

Marin Prvan made the call, but then folded when Philippe Rivory three-bet all in, with Cimilji at risk.

Arben Cimilji: 9♣9♠
Philippe Rivory: 9♦6♦

Cimilji's set of nines was in great shape against the two pair of Rivory, and there was no miracle for Rivory in the 8♥3♦ runout.

Player	Chips	Progress
Arben Cimilji	300,000 133,000	133,000

Smooth Sailing for Kyte

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

Philippe Rivory and Jon Kyte had arrived on the river on 4♣A♠3♣A♦K♦. With around 175,000 chips in the pot, Rivory checked from early position and Kyte thought for a bit on the button before betting 60,000 chips.

Rivory confirmed the amount before tossing in the call and Kyte excitedly showed A♣7♥ for trip aces. Rivory could not beat that and sent his cards to the muck, shipping a big pot Kyte's way.

Player	Chips	Progress
Jon Kyte	416,000 239,000	239,000
Philippe Rivory	270,000 225,000	225,000
