Level 22
: 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
With two players seeing a board of A♣J♥5♠6♥ and 350,000 already in the middle, Razvan Sabau checked from middle position and Alisa Sibgatova bet 125,000 from the cutoff. Sabau check-raised to 275,000 and Sibgatova made the call.
Both players then checked the 7♥ river. Sibgatova tabled A♠6♠ for aces up which was good enough to take down a sizable pot.

: 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Fausto Tantillo opened to 50,000 from the button and Denis Vlasov defended from the big blind.
The flop came 8♦6♠Q♠ and Vlasov check-called a 75,000 continuation bet from Tantillo.
The 4♠ turn brought a possible flush in and Vlasov lead out with a bet of 60,000. Tantillo made the call.
On the 6♥ river Vlasov moved all in, covering Tantillo who had 170,000 behind. Tantillo, who started the day as chip leader but had recently become one of the shorter stacks, went into the tank.
After a couple minutes Tantillo flicked in the call and was at risk.
Vlasov could only show K♠J♣ for a bluff while Tantillo turned over A♠Q♣ for top pair to secure a critical double up at Vlasov's expense.

Jovan Kenjic opened to 30,000 from under the gun before Ali El-Siblani three-bet to 75,000 from middle position. Umutcan Ipekoglu called in the big blind and Kenjic called as well.
The flop came K♦Q♣5♥ and Ipekoglu lead out with 55,000 bet. Kenjic called before El-Siblani raised to 250,000. Ipekoglu moved all in for 505,000 and Kenjic got out of the way while Siblani made the call with a covering stack to put Ipekoglu at risk.
Umutcan Ipekoglu: Q♠Q♦
Ali El-Siblani: A♥A♠
Ipekoglu was in excellent shape with middle set and only needed to fade two outs to avoid elimination. The 2♠ turn and 10♦ river were clean and he collected a full double up with the money bubble rapidly approaching.

A player in the hijack opened to 30,000 and received calls from Uladzimir Zhyharau on the button, Serkan Solak in the small blind and Dmitry Gromov in the big blind.
The flop came J♦5♦2♥. Solak moved all in for 95,000 and was called by Gromov while the other two players got out of the way.
Serkan Solak: Q♦J♣ 
Dmitry Gromov: 5♥2♣
Gromov was ahead with bottom two pair and remained so on the 7♥ turn and A♥ river to take the pot and send Solak to the rail roughly a dozen spots away from making the money.

With two players seeing a board of 2♥8♠7♦Q♥8♣ and roughly 500,000 already in the middle, Andrey Pateychuk checked from the big blind and Adria Diaz bet 225,000 from the button, leaving just 150,000 behind. Pateychuk moved all in with a covering stack and Diaz made the call.
Diaz had K♥8♥ for trips but Pateychuk turned over Q♦8♦ for a full house to take down a massive pot while Diaz, who started the day with the second-largest stack, was sent to the rail.
Elsewhere in the tournament area, Victor Yugay was recently eliminated.
