Arthur Navellou
Arthur Navellou

In a heads-up pot with around 120,000 in the middle, already, Arthur Navellou led out for 65,000 from the small blind after seeing the Q♣7♣4♥ flop. John Woods, who was seated under the gun, made the call.

A 6♣ fell on the turn and Navellou jammed for 300,000. Woods immediately called and the cards were revealed.

Arthur Navellou: A♣3♦ All in
John Woods: Q♥Q♠

Navellou was making a move and had run into the top set of Woods. However, Navellou still had flush and straight outs with one card to come.

The 3♠ river wasn't the one Navellou was looking for and all of his chips headed over to Woods, who boosted his stack up to a million.

Martin Nielsen

Matas Cimbolas raised to 18,000 from middle position and Martin Nielsen three-bet to 60,000 from the button. When it got back to Cimbolas, he called to see a flop.

Cimbolas knuckled the action over to Nielsen on the 7♦K♥3♠ flop, and Nielsen laid out a bet of 35,000. Cimbolas continued in the form of a call.

The K♠ landed on the turn and Cimbolas check-called another bet from Nielsen, this time for 75,000.

With 235,000 remaining in his stack, Cimbolas checked for the last time when he saw the 2♣ complete the board. Nielsen quickly jammed, covering Cimbolas, and Cimbolas went deep into the tank.

Cimbolas stood up from his chair and burned through all five of his time bank cards while deliberating whether to call or fold. In the end, he settled on a call.

Nielsen had an unbeatable hand in K♣K♦ for quad kings. Cimbolas tabled 6♦6♠ for just a pair of sixes as his Main Event journey came to an end.

Just two hands after winning the massive pot off Miroslav Alilovic, Cesar Garcia was on the button and had small blind Adnan Dahic all in and at risk for Dahic's last 200,000.

Adnan Dahic: K♣Q♠ All in
Cesar Garcia: A♦J♦

Garcia hit top pair on the 2♠4♣A♠ flop to leave Dahic drawing only to running cards. The 5♦ turn meant Dahic could only hope to chop the pot, but the 2♣ river sealed his elimination as Garcia climbed over 1,000,000.

Cesar Garcia three-bet to 60,000 in the big blind before Miroslav Alilovic four-bet to 140,000 in the cutoff. Garcia called and they went heads-up to the Q♠7♥4♠ flop.

Alilovic then bet 53,000 and Garcia called. The turn was the A♣ and Alilovic bet another 92,000. Garcia again called.

The 4♦ fell on the river and Alilovic bet 135,000, leaving himself 10,000 behind. Garcia then moved all in and Alilovic instantly tossed in his last two chips.

Alilovic showed Q♦Q♥ for a flopped set and rivered boat, but Garcia had A♥A♦ for a turned set of aces, rivered bigger boat, to win the massive pot. Alilovic stopped to snap a photo of the board before wishing the table luck and heading for the exit.

Level 18 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Thales De Figuereido opened from the hijack and Andreas Vlachos shoved for around 120,000 from the button. Once the blinds folded, De Figuereido called to put Vlachos at risk.

Andreas Vlachos: 6♠6♥ All in
Thales De Figuereido: 10♠10♣

Vlachos had the smaller pocket pair, and unless he found some help from the dealer, he would be out of the Main Event.

A board of K♣K♥7♠7♥2♠ came out, keeping De Figuereido's pocket tens in the lead, and Vlachos was out.

Jeremie Descouts: A♦K♦ All in
Sergio Carro Marin: 7♦7♥

"No..." Descouts said when he discovered that Carro Marin flopped a set. Despite the K♠ turn, Descouts was eliminated on the 8♥ river.
