Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Cesar Garcia opened from the cutoff, and Aleksandr Shevliakov three-bet shoved for 18,400 from the button. Garcia called with a covering stack to put him at risk.
Aleksandr Shevliakov: J♥10♥ 
Cesar Garcia: A♠K♦
Garcia was a slight favorite preflop, but the 10♣10♠6♣2♠9♦ runout left him drawing dead by the turn, while Shevliakov was good at showdown with trip tens to double up.

: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Reiji Kono opened to 1,600 in middle position. Benedikt Wenzel flat-called on the button, after which Tom Shaham squeezed in a three-bet to 6,000 from the small blind.
Kono quickly moved all in for 15,600, folding out Wenzel. Shaham immediately called to force a showdown.
Reiji Kono: A♠K♠
Tom Shaham: A♣Q♦
Kono looked to be in great shape to get back above starting stack, but Shaham paired up on the 7♣4♠Q♠ flop to take the lead.
The J♦ turn gave Kono a gutshot in addition to his flopped flush draw, but the Q♥ river improved Shaham to trips to set Kono's elimination in stone.

Simeon Spasov was all-in from under the gun for 11,500 and up against the covering stack of Adrian Lipe to his direct left.
Simeon Spasov: A♦K♥
Adrian Lipe: K♦Q♣
Spasov was in great shape with a dominating king, but the 2♠6♠3♥7♦Q♠ runout gave Lipe a rivered queen to send Spasov to the rail.

From the hijack, Akin Tuna tossed a bet of 22,000 into a pot of 27,000 on the completed board of 8♣Q♥4♣2♥4♠. His opponent was Luis Faria, who tossed in a quick calling chip.
Tuna tabled J♦9♥ for nothing but air. Faria had rivered trips with A♥4♥, and he comfortably raked in the pot to cross the six-figure mark.

David Gradic open-raised in early position, prompting Philipp Hasenburger to three-bet to 5,700 in the cutoff. It folded back to Gradic, who clicked it back to 11,500.
After some thought, Hasenburger five-bet jammed for 51,200, and Gradic quickly called off.
Philipp Hasenburger: K♥K♣
David Gradic: A♦K♦
"I busted yesterday like this," Hasenburger commented as the 4♣Q♦J♥ flop was fanned. "Ten on the river."
No ten arrived this time, however, as the 3♠8♠ runout remained safe for Hasenburger to double up. Gradic, meanwhile, was left with less than ten big blinds, which he lost soon after.

With the board reading J♣K♠3♣Q♦ and around 6,000 in the middle, Maria Lampropulos checked from the small blind, Marc Foggin bet 4,600 from under the gun, and Lampropulos called.
Lampropulos checked the 4♣ river and Foggin checked behind. Lampropulos turned over A♣10♠ for a Broadway straight and Foggin mucked his hand.
Foggin had just over 20,000 following the hand, and was eliminated soon after.

Three-handed to the J♠8♦6♣ flop, Matan Krakow bet 4,000 from the big blind and was called by Bora Kurtulus on the button. Nicola Grieco then raised to 16,000, which only Krakow called.
The 5♥ turn was checked twice, leading to the 3♥ river. Krakow retook the initiative with a bet of 16,000, with which he won the pot as Grieco quickly mucked his cards.
