Hamid Izadi checked a {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{a-Clubs}{j-Clubs} board from the big blind, and Freddy Williams bet 100,000 into a pot of 160,000 in middle position. Izadi check-raised to 200,000, then snapped off Williams' three-bet shove for 305,000.

Freddy Williams: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}
Hamid Izadi: {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}

Izadi's aces-full had Williams drawing dead before the {5-Clubs} river hit the felt, and Izadi breaks the two-million chip marker with the victory.

Last Break of the Night; Schedule Change

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Players are off on their final fifteen-minute break of the night. HPT Tournament Director Jeremy Smith has informed players that one more level will be played. If the field is reduced down to ten by the end of the level, play will continue until the official final table of nine is reached. Otherwise, play will conclude at the end of Level 21.

Hopkins Fires on All Cylinders

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Kevin Hopkins opened to a sizable 34,000 from under the gun six handed, and the others folded around to Patel in the big blind, who grabbed calling chips, put them back, then verbalized a call, throwing in the rest.

Hopkins continued for more than the pot—100,000—when checked to on {9-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{4-Hearts}, and Patel called fairly quickly.

Patel checked again on the {j-Diamonds} turn, and Hopkins went all in. Patel quickly folded, leaving him with about half of the chips that he returned to from break.

Izadi and Michalak Back at Battle

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

The table had deja vu when Izadi opened to 26,000 from the cutoff and Michalak three-bet from the button to 75,000. Izadi paid up, and they were off to a flop.

{k-Spades}{3-Spades}{6-Diamonds} landed on the felt, and Izadi check-called a downbet of 50,000.

The turn brought the {4-Diamonds}, and Izadi check again. Michalak continued firing, this time for 125,000. Izadi check-raised all in, and Michalak didn't think long before pushing his cards across the line.

Hopkins Finds River Salvation

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

A preflop raising war resulted in Neil Patel four-bet shoving from the small blind to put Kevin Hopkins at risk for his last 334,000, and Hopkins snapped it off.

Kevin Hopkins: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Neil Patel: {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}

Patel looked primed to score the knockout after the {10-Clubs}{6-Spades}{7-Spades} flop and {4-Spades} turn, but the {j-Spades} river had other ideas, sending Hopkins the double with his rivered pair of jacks.
