All the chips went in preflop and there were two premium hands in play, with Ismet Karatas on the wrong side of a cooler and his tournament life at risk.
Enrico Milia:
Ismet Karatas:
The flop came and Karatas was looking for a miracle to turn things around. Nothing untoward happened on the turn and river and Karatas is out of the game, for today at least. Meanwhile, Milia's ascent continues.

The rollercoaster ride continues and this time Kastriot Shytani is on the up and Stuart McLean has fallen by the wayside.
The action folded to McLean in the small blind and he moved all in and was looked up by Shytani in the big.
Kastriot Shytani:
Stuart McLean:
They were off to the races and though McLean hit top pair on the flop, Shytani had picked up an open-ended straight flush draw.
The turn was a brick but the river improved Shytani to a straight and he eliminates McLean as the clock is paused in order for the two tables to combine.

Daniel Silverman opened to 12,000 and only got action from one player, Tasos Papanastasiou in the big blind.
On the flop, Papanastasiou led for 20,000 and Silverman called. The turn saw the same again, with Silverman calling the 20,000 bet behind.
The last card out was the and once again Papanastasiou made it 20,000 to get to showdown. Silverman sighed before throwing the chips in, then mucked when Papanastasiou turned over top pair with .

With just over five big blinds left, it was always going to be difficult for Jiten Chauhan to turn things around. He wasn't able to spin up and exits in 9th place.
