Marco Leonzio opened to 2,500 from the button and was met with a three-bet to 8,000 from Jan Schwippert in the small blind. When the action folded back to Leonzio, he four-bet to 16,000. Schwippert responded with a five-bet shove for 46,100, and Leonzio quickly called.

Jan Schwippert: A♦10♥ All in
Marco Leonzio: K♠K♦

Schwippert needed one of his three outs to stay alive, and the poker gods favored him on the 6♦J♥A♥ flop. Leonzio found no help on the 4♦2♥ runout, and Schwippert scooped this pot to get an above-average stack.

Level 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Leo Margets raised under the gun to 2,500, the middle position player called and Itai Levy squeezed to 11,300 on the button. Margets thought about her next move for a short period then four-bet to 30,000.

Levy asked, "How much are you playing?"

Margets replied, "About 120/130ish, do you want me to count?"

Levy called the bet.

With 65,000 chips in the pot already the flop came 10♦6♦6♣. Margets continued her aggression for 20,000 and Levy called.

When the 2♥ hit the turn, Margets announced all in, to which Levy asked, "How much?". Once Levy got the chip confirmation, he said out loud "How do I ever fold this!". Levy, in quite some pain, took his time before eventually folding.

Pascal Vos open raised to 2,500 from early position and Matthew Micallef moved all in from the hojack for 19,200. Pavel Plesuv then pushed all in over the top from the big blind and Vos called with both players covered to make it a three-way all in.

Matthew Micallef: 8♠8♣ All in
Pavel Plesuv: A♣Q♥ All in
Pascal Vos: A♦K♠

Michallef was in great shape with his pocket pair considering that his opponents shared outs. The board ran out 5♥9♥7♠2♠8♦ and he further improved to a set of eights to triple up his stack.

Plesuv lost out for the rest of his chips to Vos, who claimed the side pot to make some chips from the hand.
