Level 8 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Markkos Ladev raised to 11,000 from the button. Artsiom Lasouski, in the small blind, three-bet jammed for 107,000. Ladev thought for some time before making the call.

Artsiom Lasouski: 6♦6♠ All in
Markkos Ladev: A♣9♥

Lasouski needed to hold to survive and the 7♦3♥4♠ flop proved no danger. The Q♣ turn and K♥ river changed nothing and Lasouski doubled up.

Markkos Ladev	280,000 10,000	10,000

Level 8 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Action folded around to Thomas Santerne, who completed the small blind. Markkos Ladev raised to 20,000 from the big blind and Santerne called.

Both players opted to check on the flop of 8♦Q♠2♠ to the K♥ turn. Santerne led out for 38,000 and Ladev called.

The river came the 4♦ and Santerne pushed all in, putting his opponent under pressure. But Ladev wasn't ready to fold and didn't feel the pressure. His hand was too strong.

Ladev made the call for 145,000 and turned over K♦2♦ for two pair, kings and deuces. Santerne had A♣6♦ for a bluff and so Ladev won the pot to double up his stack.

Player	Chips	Progress
Markkos Ladev	485,000 205,000	205,000
Thomas Santerne	455,000 160,000	160,000

Ollie Garland

Level 8 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Espen Jorstad raised to 17,500 from the small blind, Andras Nemeth, in the big blind, three-bet to 50,000 and Jorstad four-bet jammed for Nemeth's effective stack. Nemeth called off the bet for his tournament life.

Andras Nemeth: 10♥10♦ All in
Espen Jorstad: A♠Q♥

Nemeth was ahead in this flip and the 3♥K♥4♦ saw him hold. However, the Q♦ turn and Q♣ river gave Jorstad runner-runner trips to eliminate Nemeth.
