Anton Suarez made it 200,000 from the small blind with A♦K♥, and Yohan Rascar defended the big blind holding 7♣6♥.

Level 27 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Cesar Garcia raised to 120,000 in the hijack before Lauri Saaskilahti moved all in for 895,000 in the small blind. Youssef Zereg in the big blind asked for a count and considered the decision for a minute, but he eventually folded. Garcia also quickly mucked as Zereg flung his arms in the air in frustration while Saaskilahti took the pot.

Julian Pineda Lozano then raised to 120,000 in early position and Garcia called in the big blind.

Pineda Lozano continued for 80,000 on the A♥Q♦7♦ flop and Garcia called. Pineda Lozano bet another 400,000 on the 2♥ turn, and this time Garcia folded.

Level 27 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Hugo Gotuzzo open-jammed a stack of around 900,000 in middle position and Julian Pineda Lozano re-shoved a bigger stack in the small blind to get things heads-up.

Hugo Gotuzzo: Q♥Q♦ All in
Julian Pineda Lozano: 7♥7♠

Lozano was the first one who showed and Gotuzzo skipped a beat and let out a sigh before turning over queens to reveal he was far ahead. But it was short-lived as the flop landed 9♦10♠8♣ to give both players straight draws and the 6♦ turn gave Lozano the straight before the blank 6♠ river confirmed Gotuzzo's elimination in 15th place.
