Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Action was on the river on a board of 6♣6♦8♠9♠8♣. Damiano Aloi checked and Kamil Chrostowski pushed all in for around 55,000. Aloi went deep into the tank and started running through his opponent's possible hands.
"This might be the sickest hero call," said Aloi, who hesitated for another moment before placing his chips in the middle for the call.
Chrostowski wasn't bluffing though. He flipped over 9♥9♦ for quad nines and won a huge pot from Aloi, who moments before was leading the flight. Chrostowski doubled his stack and joined the top five.

Three players were all in preflop and Kaarle Parikka was at risk with the shortest stack.
Kaarle Parikka: 7♣7♦

However, the board ran out Q♣8♥A♥9♥4♠ to give Pat and the other player a pair of aces on the flop. They chopped the pot and Parikka was eliminated.

Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Damiano Aloi, who was already the chip leader in the flight, continued his rampage with back to back knockouts.
In the first hand, he made a flush and put his shorter stacked opponent all in to win the pot. His opponent sat in shock for a moment before leaving the table.
The very next hand, Aloi was in a multiway pot and his opponent in the big blind shoved all in with a pair of nines on a jack high flop. Aloi called with A♥J♣ and held with his pair of jacks to win the pot and eliminate yet another player.
He now has over 200,000 in chips.

Following an open raise to 4,000 from middle position, Hector De Gea Garcia moved all in for 26,500.
The rest of the table folded apart from the original raiser, but Garcia thought everyone was out and exposed the A♦. Floor were called and the TD allowed for the action to continue as played, putting Garcia's opponent in a tough spot.
Eventually, the player made the call and cards were flipped.
Opponent: A♦9♥
Hector De Gea Garcia: A♥10♥
The board ran out 10♠A♠K♥10♣K♠. Both players paired their ace and Garcia made two pair, aces and tens. The turn further improved his hand to a full house, leaving his opponent drawing dead.
Garcia scooped in a large pot and moved up the ranks to become one of the chip leaders as play reaches the final couple of levels.

Action was on the flop on a board of K♥8♣9♣. Damiano Aloi check raised to 10,000 and his opponent called.
The turn was the Q♣. Alio checked, his opponent fired out a bet of 20,000 and Alio called. The river came the 4♥ and Aloi checked. After some consideration, the river was checked back to showdown.
Aloi showed Q♥10♥ for a pair of queens, which was enough for him to win the pot and add another chunk to his stack, making him the flight's chip leader.
