Level 9 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

All the chips went into the middle preflop, with the big blind at risk for 32,000. He was covered by Ioannis Chorianopoulos sat in the hijack.

Big Blind: 7♣7♦
Ioannis Chorianopoulos: 9♦9♣

It was a domination situation and the big blind knew the writing was on the wall and stood up to gather his things. There was no help on the K♠5♠3♥J♣5♦ and the Greek's pocket nines held.

Early position bet 2,500 and was met with a raise of 5,200 from the cutoff. Jurij Potocnik in the small blind shoved for 6,700. The small blind shoved over the top for 30,000 which forced the cutoff to fold.

Jurij Potocnik: A♦K♥

Potocnik was behind in the flip, but spiked a king on the turn on the board of 9♣3♠2♥K♣4♥ to secure a triple up and a lifeline back into the tournament.

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

With 6,000 in the middle, three players saw a flop of A♥J♠8♥ and the small blind moved all in for 12,200. The big blind went deep into the tank but folded. Diego De Santis in middle position quickly made the call.

Small Blind: A♠2♣ All in
Diego De Santis: A♦Q♣

The stop-and-go from the small blind didn't work out for him as De Santis had top pair, better kicker. The 3♦7♠ completed the runout to send the small blind to the rail.
