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

Anton Suarez raised to 72,000 in the hijack before Tomas Ribeiro three-bet to 238,000. Suarez called and they went heads-up to the 6♣8♦5♠ flop.

Ribeiro then moved all in and Suarez called for his last 121,000.

Anton Suarez: A♦Q♥5♦2♥
Tomas Ribeiro: A♥A♣7♣5♣

Suarez was far behind Ribeiro's aces as the 9♥ turn gave Ribeiro a straight and left Suarez drawing dead. He was already storming away to the exit by the time the K♠ fell on the river.

The remaining 11 players are now in the money.

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

Vadim Zakharyan raised to 40,000 in the cutoff, then called when Goran Urumovic moved all in for 113,000 on the button.

Goran Urumovic: K♣Q♦Q♥9♦
Vadim Zakharyan:; A♣K♠J♥6♦

"I don't have a good feeling," Urumovic said heading to the 8♣2♣K♦ flop, which gave Zakharyan top pair and the lead.

Urumovic flung his arms in the air in frustration as the board ran out A♦10♠, sending him to the rail two spots off the money.

With 12 players remaining, play is going hand-for-hand until there is one more elimination.

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

Fahredin Mustafov raised to 50,000 on the button before Florian Langmann three-bet to 158,000 in the big blind. Mustafov then moved all in for 480,000 and Langmann called.

Fahredin Mustafov: A♥A♣10♠6♥
Florian Langmann: K♠Q♦9♥5♦

The 5♥5♠7♥ flop gave Langmann trip fives and left Mustafov at risk of busting short of the money. The J♦ turn and 7♦ river didn't give Mustafov any help and he hit the rail.

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

Aku Joentausta raised to 40,000 under the gun and was called by Veselin Karakitukov, Martin Kabhrel on the button, and small blind Vadim Zakharyan.

The flop came A♠A♣A♦ and Joentausta bet 16,000. Only Kabrhel and Zakharyan called to the 5♣ turn, where all three players checked.

Action checked around to Kabrhel on the 8♦ river and he bet 240,000. Zakharyan called for his last 130,000 and Joentausta folded.

Zakharyan showed A♥Q♠10♥2♣ for flopped quads and Kabrhel mucked. "Nice check," Kabrhel told Zakharyan.

Juergen Pollack and Omar Eljach were recently eliminated as the field inches toward the money and final table.

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

Martin Kabrhel raised to 32,000 in early position and was called by Aku Joentausta on the button, while Jan-Peter Jachtmann also came along from the big blind.

The flop came 4♦2♦7♥ and Kabrhel bet 120,000. Joentausta called on the button before Jachtmann announced pot, moving all in for 473,000.

Kabrhel folded, but Joentausta tanked for a moment before calling.

Jan-Peter Jachtmann: J♣4♠2♣2♠
Aku Joentausta: K♦9♠7♦5♠

Jachtmann had a set of deuces, while Joentausta had a pair and flush draw. The board ran out 9♣3♠ and Joentausta couldn't improve, sending over the massive pot to Jachtmann.

David Salituro

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

Action folded to Cailin Jin in the small blind who moved all in for 80,000. Fahredin Mustafov called in the big blind.

Cailin Jin: A♦K♣Q♣8♦
Fahredin Mustafov: A♣8♣5♣2♠

"What is this," Mustafov said upon seeing Jin's hand. The flop came 3♥5♠4♥ and Mustafov hit a straight. The 7♣ fell on the turn and Jin made a throat-slashing motion to signal he was drawing dead heading to the J♠ river.

The remaining 16 players are now drawing for seats at the final two tables.
