Camosci Can't Make It Through the Night

David Salituro

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

Enrico Camosci moved all in for his last 12,000 under the gun, Volga Uyanik reshoved on the button, and the rest of the table got out of the way.

Enrico Camosci: 2♣2♠ All in
Volga Uyanik: J♥J♦

Camosci picked up outs to a straight as the board came 10♦3♦6♥4♦ through the turn, but he missed the 10♣ river and the Italian high roller was sent to the rail in the closing moments of the day.

At the same table, Rayan Chamas and Anton Suarez have both built up stacks of more than 200,000. Sebastian Malec is also at this table, while Parker Talbot, Maria Konnikova, Tony Dunst, and David Coleman were all recently eliminated.

Erik Bauer: A♥A♠ All in
Nima Jenabi: J♦9♠

Bauer was on his way to double up after the Q♠ was revealed, but the 9♥ river gave trips to Jenabi, ending Bauer's tournament just 15 minutes before the end of the day.

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

Danilo Cangianiello three-bet to 7,500 in middle position and Tarik Ozdemir called in the hijack. Action folded back to Jakub Sterba who four-bet to 20,000, and Cangianiello got out of the way. Ozdemir, though, announced he was all in for 61,000 by placing his gold, big-earred cartoon character card protector in the middle.

Sterba asked for a count and tanked for several minutes, but he eventually called to put Ozdemir at risk.

Tarik Ozdemir: A♣Q♥ All in
Jakub Sterba: Q♣Q♦

Sterba was ahead with his queens while Ozdemir was looking for an ace to stay alive. The 10♠7♣4♠ flop was safe for Sterba, while the turn was the K♥. Ozdemir picked up a straight draw going to the river, but he missed the 3♦ as Sterba slammed the table in celebration after scoring the knockout.

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

Idalino Lopes was standing up from his seat as he watched all of his chips head over to Shinya Yajima.

The full board of K♦2♣A♣6♦7♠ was showing and the chips had found themselves in the middle, with a pot of around 100,000 up for grabs.

Lopes showed A♦3♦ for a pair of aces and a busted flush draw, but that was no good as Yajima held K♣K♥ for a set of kings to scoop it, which sent his stack to around 160,000.

Cesar Garcia is seated at the same table and has a stack of around 270,000 as the day's end nears.

Hasson Falls Late

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

Gary Hasson opened from under the gun and Leonardo Pfeiff three-bet to 6,000 from the next seat. When it got back to Hasson, he called.

They went to the 3♠10♥7♥ flop, where Hasson checked it over and Pfeiff bet 3,000. Hasson then shoved for 15,100, and Pfeiff called.

Gary Hasson: 8♥8♣ All in
Leonardo Pfeiff: Q♥J♥

Hasson had the lead with his pocket eights, but needed to fade a ton of outs as Pfeiff held a flush draw along with overcards.

It was instant service for Pfeiff as the 4♥ hit the turn, which left Hasson drawing dead. A 3♣ on the river sealed it, and Hasson was sent on his way.

Alfredo Zingales	170,000

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Mauricio Salazar Sanchez raised to 2,500 in middle position, Nicholas Seward stuck in his last 20,000 from the cutoff, and Salazar Sanchez called.

Nicholas Seward: 7♦7♥ All in
Mauricio Salazar Sanchez: 10♦10♥

Seward was crushed by Salazar Sanchez's tens and was left heading to a late-night exit after the board came A♠J♦8♠Q♠8♥ to lock up the pot for his opponent.

At another table, Feng Yu raised to 2,600 on the button and Ricard Gonzalez three-bet to 11,600 in the small blind. Yu then moved all in.

Gonzalez spent several minutes agonizing over the decision but eventually gave up his hand. "Can I show?" Yu asked.

"Nobody is stopping you," tablemate Bryce Yockey replied, and Yu burst out laughing as he flipped over J♣8♥ while taking in the pot.

Neilson Rides the Roller Coaster to the Rail

Kai Cocklin

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Daniel Neilson was standing up and leaving his seat, with the rest of his chips heading over to Ricardo Capela.

Neilson was under the gun and had all of his stack of around 25,000 in preflop against Capela, who was in the cutoff.

Daniel Neilson: Q♠Q♥ All in
Ricardo Capela: K♠K♦

It wasn't the best of situations for Neilson, and nothing changed on the J♥10♣3♠ flop. However, things did turn in his favor when the Q♣ improved him to a set with one card to come.

Capela did pick up an open-ended straight draw to go along with his set outs, and that draw came in when the 9♠ landed on the river, which meant Neilson was eliminated and won't be returning as his two bullets have been used up.

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Jon Agnarsson was in the cutoff with a raise of 5,500 in front of him before Miguel Angel Marin moved all in from middle position. "Alright, let's gamble," Agnarsson said as he called for around 25,000.

Jon Agnarsson: K♣Q♥ All in
Miguel Angel Marin: K♥K♠

Marin showed down a pair of kings and found the last one on the K♦J♣3♥ flop to make a set. "I need a ten," Agnarsson said as the A♠ turn gave him outs to a straight.

"I said a need a ten," Agnarsson added, but he missed the A♦ river as Marin improved to a full house to send Agnarsson to the rail.

Roman Stoica: A♥8♠ All in
Brian Green: K♣Q♣ All in
