Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Derek McClenaghan got his 250,000 chips in preflop from the cutoff against Kalle Kamphus on the button, and was at risk.

Derek McClenaghan: A♥Q♠ All in
Kalle Kamphus: 10♠10♣

Kamphus remained ahead on the K♠2♦J♠ flop and J♥ turn. The 10♦ river made McClenaghan a straight, but Kamphus had rivered a full house to remain with the best hand and take down the pot.

Level 21 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Yinchuan Liu was down to 125,000, which he pushed all in from the hijack over Marcus Hallabro's open from under the gun. The action folded back to Hallabro, who quickly called.

Yinchuan Liu: K♥J♣ All in
Marcus Hallabro: A♠Q♠

Liu shot ahead on the 3♥9♦K♠ flop, pairing his king. The 9♥ turn left Hallabro with three outs, but he hit one on the A♣ river to take the pot and eliminate Liu.
