Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Maher Achour was seen taking his leave as his top pair and flush draw fell victim to Mehdi Rebai's set of nines. The rest of the chips were piled in on the turn on a board of 6♠A♦4♠9♥.

Achour had A♠K♠ and Rebai had 9♣9♠. The river came the Q♣ and Rebai held to win the pot.

"Well played mate," commented Spraggy, perhaps with a little sarcasm. Felix Schneiders commented that he folded pocket jacks.

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Adrian Cazacu raised to 3,000 in the hijack and Gerard Carbo called on the button. Isaac Haxton then moved all in for his last 8,000 in the small blind and Cazacu took a minute before eventually folding, but Carbo snap-called.

Isaac Haxton: K♥J♥ All in
Gerard Carbo: A♦A♠

Carbo shared a laugh with Cazacu after turning over his slow-played aces, while Haxton needed serious help to stay alive. The 7♦5♦6♥9♣5♥ board failed to improve Haxton and he was sent to the rail.

"It was a good fold," Carbo joked with Cazacu after the hand.
