Level 17 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Players were already all in with the cards face up. Artsiom Lasouski was at risk from the big blind against Biao Ding in the cutoff.

Artsiom Lasouski:A♣K♦ All in
Biao Ding: J♠J♦

The 9♥7♥9♦ flop kept Ding ahead and the 3♣ turn didn't change anything.

Lasouski got lucky on the K♣ river as he picked up a king, giving him a better two pair, which was enough to save him from elimination.

Player	Chips	Progress
Artsiom Lasouski	1,000,000 245,000	245,000
Biao Ding	202,000 38,000	38,000

Level 17 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Morten Klein moved all in from the cutoff for around 165,000 and Ottomar Ladva jammed from the button for around 590,000. The blinds folded and players flipped their cards.

Morten Klein: 10♣8♣ All in
Ottomar Ladva: A♠K♠

Klein was behind and stood from the table when the A♦2♥5♥ flop was dealt.

The J♥ turn and 7♣ river didn't save him and he was eliminated in 11th place, just three places from the money.

Level 17 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Patrik Antonius and Sam Greenwood were heads up on a flop of A♥7♦7♠.

Antonius was in the small blind and check-called a 20,000 bet from Greenwood, who was in the big blind.

Both players checked on the 4♥ turn and then Antonius fired 125,000 into the middle after the J♦ completed the board.

Greenwood decided to look up Antonius, who tabled 7♥5♠ for trip sevens. Greenwood couldn't beat it and mucked — awarding the pot to Antonius.
