Aleksandr Burov: 7♥6♥ All in

Burov needed some help from the board, and although he flopped a pair of sixes, he was never ahead as Demasi ended up with top two pair on the K♦6♠3♠9♠Q♦ runout.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Erwin Wiechers was all-in for his short stack, and had been put at risk by Peng Chen, who had the best starting hand in all of Hold'em!

Erwin Wiechers: J♦10♦ All in
Peng Chen: A♣A♥

Wiechers had the type of hand needed to crack aces, but on this occasion it didn't provide any sweat as the runout of K♦5♠K♣3♠K♥ gave Chen a full house.

Theelen Injects Some Adrenaline into Table 10, Eliminates Demydenko

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Kai Cocklin

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Pieter Theelen was dealt premiums in back-to-back hands which brought some adrenaline to the table.

First, Aleksandr Razinkov raised to 40,000 from under the gun and Theelen made it 120,000 from the next seat. When it got back to Razinkov, he shoved for around 700,000, and Theelen snap-called.

Aleksandr Razinkov: K♥K♣ All in
Pieter Theelen: K♦K♠

Both had the same hand but Razinkov was freerolling after the flop of Q♣9♣6♣ gave him a flush draw. Luckily for Theelen, the board bricked out, coming 8♦10♥, which meant they chopped the pot.

In the very next hand, Theelen raised to 40,000 from under the gun and Tetiana Demydenko shoved for around 300,000 from middle position. When it got back to Theelen, he called.

Tetiana Demydenko: 10♠10♥ All in
Pieter Theelen: Q♣Q♥

Theelen managed to win this one as the runout of J♥6♣9♠5♦2♠ kept his pocket queens in the lead, which sent Demydenko to the rail.

"It was such a relaxing vibe, then just all this adrenaline out of nowhere," said Theelen after the hand. "You see guys, I only play these kinds of hands," he added.

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Georgios Tsouloftas and Victoria Livschitz were heads up in a pot of 295,000. Tsouloftas sat in the small blind and bet 60,000 on a flop of 10♥10♠2♥. Livschitz called to the 8♥ turn, where Tsouloftas fired an additional 115,000.

Livschitz immediately mucked her cards and the next hand was dealt.

In that hand, Ali Emre Ozcan shoved all in for 115,000 from the hijack and was called by Alexandre Reard in the small blind.

Ali Emre Ozcan: A♦2♦ All in
Alexandre Reard: A♥10♥

Neither player paired up on the 7♦8♣J♥5♣3♦ board, leaving Reard's ace-ten high good enough to take the pot and eliminate Ozcan.

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Preben Stokkan made it 40,000 from early position and Aurelie Reard shoved for 420,000 from the cutoff. Big-stacked Antonios Onoufriou then moved all in from the button, which got Stokkan to fold relatively quickly.

Aurelie Reard: 10♦10♥ All in
Antonios Onoufriou: K♥K♠

Reard had run right into Onoufriou's cowboys and couldn't escape the lasso as the runout of 5♣A♠A♣7♦A♦ meant she was eliminated with a smaller full house.

Vitkind Hits the Rail

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Kai Cocklin

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Dmitry Vitkind shoved for 75,000 from early position and Patrick Humphreys shoved behind for a little under 300,000.

Dmitry Vitkind: Q♠6♥ All in
Patrick Humphreys: A♦Q♥

Vitkind was hoping to see some sixes, but saw them upside-down as the flop of A♥9♥9♣ put him on the brink of elimination. Humphreys locked up the pot on the J♦ turn, and the 3♠ river was just a formality, which meant Vitkind was eliminated.

Omer Cubukcu: 8♥8♦ All in
Vytautas Milbutas: A♦Q♦

Cubukcu was ahead in the flip, and remained so after the 9♦6♠3♥ flop. However, the Q♥ hit on the turn to put Milbutas in front, and the 2♥ confirmed Cubukcu's fate.
