Level 24 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Aktag Firat
Aktag Firat

According to Aktag Firat, who showed PokerNews a video of his recent hand, with action folded to Firat in the cutoff, he made it 80,000. The button then shoved all in for 470,000 and Firat called to put the opponent at risk

Opponent: {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Aktag Firat: {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}

The board was a clean one for the friendly player, who is thrilled to be going this deep in an event such as this. The {5-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{4-Spades}{10-Clubs} run out secured the elimination, moving Firat up well past a million chips.

Dominique Gabriel: {q-Spades}{5-Spades}

Kuscu was behind but hit two pair on a flop of {j-Spades}{10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}. The {4-Diamonds} turn did not change anything however the {9-Spades} river gave Gabriel a gut-shot straight to send Kuscu to the exit.

Sinnos Survives After Being One Card From Elimination

Level 24 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Vadzim Godzdanker had opened from middle position and action folded around to the small blind, Eleftherios Sinnos. He paused deciding to move all in for 590,000.

Godzdanker got his opponents count and then threw in a single chip in to denote a call. Cards were tabled with Sinnos at risk.

Eleftherios Sinnos: {a-Clubs}{10-Spades}
Vadzim Godzdanker: {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}

Godzdanker was well ahead and held on the {q-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{5-Diamonds} flop and turn, Sinnos did have chop outs, needing any five, four or queen to split the pot but it was better than that, as he spiked the {10-Clubs} on the river to give himself a full double up. Godzdanker looked off to the side, certainly annoyed with the outcome.

All the chips went into the middle with Itai Levy at risk for 305,000 from the cutoff. Selahaddin Bedir in the big blind covered Levy.

Itai Levy: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}
Selahaddin Bedir: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

Levy was behind but spiked a set on a flop of {a-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{4-Spades}. The {5-Hearts} turn was no help for Bedir, but the Turk hit a set of his own on the {k-Clubs} river to take the pot and a frustrated Levy thumped the table as he headed to the cashier desk.

Level 23 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Erkal Bergutay bet 77,000 from under the gun and action folded to Ravil Khamatgareev in the big blind who called for 60,000

Ravil Khamatgareev: {8-Hearts}{7-Spades}
Erkal Bergutay: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}

Khamatgareev was damaged in a previous hand as they had over a million chips at one stage and was forced to call Bergutay. Khamatgareev hit a pair on the flop of {q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} but there was no futher help as the {2-Clubs}{6-Spades} completed the board and Bergutay's aces held sending the Russian to the rail.
