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

Alfie Usher moved his last 11,000 in blind under the gun. and was called by Jonas Stechbarth, Sokratis Linaras, and Guy Holtzman, while Salvatore Camarda and Martin Stausholm also came along for the ride in the blinds. Usher wasn't sure whether to be pleased or not with the action he received.

On the J♥J♠3♠ flop, Stechbarth led out with a bet of 21,000, only to be met with a raise to 65,000 by Linaras. That forced out the other opponents, with action folded back to Stechbarth. After some thought, he sighed and folded.

Alfie Usher: K♥7♣ All in
Sokratis Linaras: J♣9♣

Usher was drawing dead versus Linaras's trip jacks, and the 3♦4♥ turn and river completed the board.

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

Thomas Lilamand raised from under the gun to 16,000 and Remy Murcia called from the next seat. Darren Rabinowitz then shoved for around 150,000, which got Lilamand to fold and Murcia called.

Darren Rabinowitz: A♣Q♦ All in
Remy Murcia: A♦K♦

Rabinowitz took the lead on the 4♥2♠Q♠ flop after he paired his queen, which left Murcia needing to connect with one of the three remaining kings. A 4♠ turn was a brick and left Rabinowitz just one card away from a double-up, but he couldn't hold onto his lead as the K♠ river improved Murcia to a pair of kings.

Kai Cocklin

Level 17 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Alessandro La Cava: A♦J♣

La Cava picked up a flush draw on the turn but couldn't connect with it as the runout of 3♥3♣4♣10♣9♥ gave Veldhuis an early double-up on Day 2.
