Wales' Ivor Sampson opened to 4,000 from under the gun. He was called by Stuart McNally in middle position before Francois Pirault jammed for 19,000 from the button.

Ivor Sampson: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}

Sampson would seal the pot with the full house after the {k-Hearts}{j-Spades}{10-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{j-Hearts} run out. "I wish you called now," quipped Sampson to McNally

Chung Eliminates an Opponent to Surpass 300k

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

On a {9-Hearts}{10-Spades}{6-Spades} Timothy Chung was on the button and was facing an opponent's bet of 5,500. Chung raised to 15,000 and his opponent re-raised to 65,500. Chung flat-called.

His opponent shoved for 65,000 on the {k-Spades} turn and Chung called.

"You have the flush?" his opponent asked and Chung nodded tabling {q-Spades}{j-Spades}. His opponent turned over {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} for a set.

"Pair the board," came the cry, but there was no help on the {a-Hearts} river and he was eliminated, boosting Chung up above 300,000. Also at the table with a stack above that mark is Day 1b chip leader Steve Jelinek.

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Ali Sarkeshik
Ali Sarkeshik

Ali Sarkeshik and Elie Dib got their stacks into the middle with the latter at risk of elimination.

Elie Dib: {a-Spades}{8-Hearts}
Ali Sarkeshik: {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}

Dib would flop a gut-shot straight draw after the {q-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{9-Clubs} flop but whiffed on the {q-Hearts} turn. The {j-Hearts} completed his straight and Sarkeshik's aces went into the muck.

A moment later, Lorenc Boci asked Sarkeshik if he enjoyed his soup, to which he replied "yes."

"Tomato?" Boci asked. "No, Carrot" Sarkeshik replied.
