Remaining Level 16 Eliminations

Level 16 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Michael Traps Akemi; Cameron Straightens Out Chen

Level 16 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Barbara Akemi raised to 10,000 in early position. Alonne Michael flat-called in middle position before Ivo Colaco three-bet to 25,000 in the big blind. Akemi called, but Michael had other plans and jammed all in for 134,000.

Colaco quickly folded. Akemi spent one of her time banks before she flicked in a single chip to call.

Alonne Michael: AA All in
Barbara Akemi: 88

Michael improved to a set on the 10A5 flop, leaving Akemi drawing dead on the Q turn. Michael officially raked in his double-up on the 7 river.

Meanwhile, at an adjacent table, Lin Chen had opened from under the gun. Duncan Cameron then three-bet to 30,000 in the hijack, prompting Chen to move all in for 126,000. Cameron called after some time in the tank.

Lin Chen: QQ All in
Duncan Cameron: AJ

Cameron flopped Broadway on 10KQ. Chen was still in contention with his set, but the board did not pair on the 8 turn or 2 river, eliminating Chen.

Rizov Wisely Checks Back

Level 16 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Miroslav Rizov
Miroslav Rizov

Three ways to the K27 flop, where Kalidou Sow checked first from the big blind. Alexander Ivarsson bet 15,000 from under the gun, which was called by Miroslav Rizov in middle position and Sow.

A second check came from Sow on the 3 turn and Ivarsson fired a second bullet of 75,000. Rizov called and Sow folded.

The A completed the board, and both players checked. Ivarsson turned over the nut flush with QJ, and Rizov could only laugh as he mucked his cards.

Enselme Doubles in Preflop Cooler; Bouquet Busts to Mermelstein

Level 16 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Arnaud Enselme
Arnaud Enselme

Arnaud Enselme open-raised in middle position, after which Josep Ruiz three-bet to 33,000 in the cutoff. Enselme then four-bet to 85,000 and quickly called off his stack of 328,000 when Ruiz moved all in.

Arnaud Enselme: KK All in
Josep Ruiz: QQ

Enselme found a third king on the K76 flop. Ruiz's hopes of runner-runner quads were dashed on the 2 turn, and the irrelevant 4 river completed the board as Ruiz cut out the required chips from his stack.

Meanwhile, Rui Bouquet was eliminated at another table, with his last chips being added to Aaron Mermelstein's stack.

Worthington-Leese Stays Alive

Level 16 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Leo Worthington-Leese moved all-in for 36,000 from under the gun, and when the action folded to Arturo Rodriguez in the big blind, he called.

Leo Worthington-Leese: A5 All in
Arturo Rodriguez: A8

Worthington-Leese received immediate service from the deck, as the 545 flop gave him a commanding lead. The 6 turn opened the door for Rodriguez to retake his lead, but the Q river was unforthcoming.

Dato Felts Oikonomidis

Level 16 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Ioannis Oikonomidis
Ioannis Oikonomidis

With the flop showing J105, Ioannis Oikonomidis' stack of around 100,000 found its way into the middle from the hijack, with Andrea Dato trying to send him to the rail from the big blind.

Ioannis Oikonomidis: KQ All in
Andrea Dato: 98

Both players had straight draws, meaning Oikonomidis' king-high was ahead.

Dato spiked a pair on the 8 turn and faded all of Oikonomidis' outs when the board-pairing 10 landed on the river, sending Oikonomidis to the rail.

Boulton Downs Dzhumachuk

Level 16 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Dmitry Dzhumachuk tossed in his last 45,000 on the 2A36 turn from the big blind, being up against Joshua Boulton in the hijack.

Dmitry Dzhumachuk: K9 All in
Joshua Boulton: 66

Dzhumachuk needed a diamond to survive, but the river came the 2 instead, upgrading Boulton to a full house to secure the elimination.

Shortly after, Jose Mestre was knocked out at another table.

Kovalski Overcomes Domination

Level 16 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Fabiano Kovalski
Fabiano Kovalski

After Davide Marchi raised in the cutoff, Fabiano Kovalski moved all-in for 90,000 from the big blind, and Marchi called, looking to reduce the field by one.

Fabiano Kovalski: A7 All in
Davide Marchi: AQ

The deck came to the rescue for Kovalski, as the A79 flop saw him flip the script. The K turn and 6 river offered no relief for Marchi, ensuring Kovalski kept his seat in the Main Event.

Titenski Fluhses Out Wojciechowski

Level 16 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Pawel Wojciechowski
Pawel Wojciechowski

Pawel Wojciechowski was deep in the tank from the cutoff, having been put to the test for his tournament life on the 8K8 flop. Wojciechowski had bet before Denis Titenski raised enough to put him all in. After using a time bank, Wojciechowski made the call.

Pawel Wojciechowski: K10 All in
Denis Titenski: A6

Wojciechowski had taken his time and made the right call with top pair, as Titenski was had a flush draw.

Unfortunately for Wojciechowski, Titenski found instant service on the J turn to complete his flush, leaving Wojciechowski needing an eight or king to survive.

The 9 offered no such rescue, sending Wojciechowski to collect his payout while Titenski climbed to around 400,000.
