Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Byron Kaverman had managed to rebuild his stack back up to around 200,000 after taking that earlier beat against Dean Lyall when he tangled in a pot with Gabriel Moura.

Kaverman opened to 20,000 in early position and Moura called in the big blind. Kaverman continued for 14,000 on the 7♣3♠2♣ flop and Moura called.

Kaverman bet another 35,000 on the A♦ turn and Moura again called. The river was the 4♥ and Moura led out for 65,000.

Kaverman peeked back at his cards and shook his head as he quickly surrendered the pot.

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

About 300,000 was already in the middle following preflop action that led to a flop of 8♥8♦7♦.

David Coleman bet 180,000 from the small blind and Jelle Moene slid his stack of time bank cards forward before making his decision.

The dealer peeled just one off that stack before Moene decided to move his other stack forward, declaring that he was all in for 727,000.

Coleman didn't wait long before calling and a massive pot was at hand.

Jelle Moene: Q♠Q♦ All in
David Coleman: J♥J♦

The dealer completed the board 3♦4♣ as the massive pot was sent to Moene while Coleman was left with just over 25 big blinds.

Kai Cocklin

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Eero Rantala min-raised from middle position and got called by Matthew Gillingham on the button & Dominykas Karmazinas in the big blind.

On the 8♥3♣J♦ flop, all three players checked to the 4♦ turn. Karmazinas led out for 35,000, which Rantala called, then Gillingham folded.

When the 6♥ fell on the river, Karmazinas bet 70,000 then Rantala shoved. Karmazinas had around 200,000 chips behind and after using several time-extensions, he elected to preserve them and made the fold.
