Level 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Level 23
Blinds: 10,000/25,000 (25,000)

John Juanda was in middle position and raised to 50,000 with 4♦4♣. Mark Teltscher three-bet 10♠10♥ to 160,000 in the hijack, and Juanda flicked in calling chips. The 7♠J♣5♦ flop saw Teltscher continue for 125,000, and Juanda check-called.

The 4♠ turn gave Juanda a set and prompted him to lead out for 300,000. Teltscher thought it through for a bit, then called, bringing the 3♥ river.

Juanda kept up the aggression with a bet of 520,000. Teltscher took a sip of his water before he released his cards to concede the pot.

Barbara Akemi raised under the gun to 60,000 and was three-bet to 200,000 by Vasyl Pidhrusnyi in the small blind. Akemi elected to call.

Pidhrusnyi fired for 125,000 once the dealer spread the 4♠2♦10♣ flop. Akemi called.

The 2♥ arrived on the turn, and Pidhrusnyi placed out a second barrel of 200,000. Akemi continued again with a call.

The 8♥ rolled off on the river, and Pidhrusnyi used a few time banks before checking. Akemi checked back, and Pidhrusnyi showed ace-high with A♠J♣. Akemi tabled the winner with J♥J♦, adding even more chips to her already sizable stack.

Grzegorz Kozieja raised to 60,000 from under the gun, and when faced with a three-bet to 240,000 from Vinicius Goncalves in the small blind, Kozieja called.

Goncalves continued for 150,000 on an A♠10♠5♥ flop, and Kozieja didn't stick around to see any more cards, instead returning his hand to the dealer.

Level 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Level 23
Blinds: 10,000/25,000 (25,000)

Jose Criado raised it to 50,000 in early position. Jonas ten Cate called in the cutoff, prompting Alexander Luciani to squeeze in a three-bet to 160,000 on the button. Criado called before Ten Cate got rid of his K♦Q♣.

Luciani bet 80,000 on the A♣J♠8♥ flop, which Criado check-called. The 3♣ turn then checked through to the J♦ river, which Criado also checked.

Luciani piled in an overbet of 600,000 in response. Criado went deep into the tank. He spent three time banks before calling, being rewarded as Luciani tabled a bluff with K♣7♣.

Criado had A♥Q♦ for the winning hand, and he won the pot to cross the three-million mark.

Level 23
Blinds: 10,000/25,000 (25,000)

Henok Tekle Mariam was first to act and raised to 50,000. Joshua Boulton defended his big blind, after which the A♥4♥6♦ flop was checked by both.

Boulton also checked the 3♣ turn, but Tekle Mariam switched gears and bet 60,000. Boulton called to the 2♠ river, where he led out for 65,000.

Tekle Mariam swiftly called. Boulton revealed two pair with 4♣2♣, but Tekle Mariam had three aces, winning the pot with A♠A♣.

Barbara Akemi opened from the small blind and Sebastian Malec made it around 110,000 from the big blind. Akemi called.

Akemi check-called a bet of 50,000 from Malec on the A♦2♥2♦ flop.

Both players checked the A♣ turn before Akemi led out for 130,000 on the 6♣ river. Malec called and Akemi revealed Q♥6♥ for a pair of sixes. Malec mucked, and Akemi's stack climbed to around three million.

End of the Line for Lee

Level 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Fabricio Nociolini raised on the button, and when Min-Sung Lee moved all-in from the small blind for 550,000, Nociolini called.

Min-Sung Lee: 8♥8♣ All in
Fabricio Nociolini: A♥Q♣

The 3♥3♦2♣ flop did not affect the standings, but the A♠ turn that followed it left Lee looking to hit a two-outer to survive. The deck was unforthcoming, as the 4♦ completed the board, ending Lee's Main Event run in Barcelona.
