Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Michel Molenaar raised to 6,000 under the gun with Ibrahim Naim calling on the button, Sandro Taddei calling from the small blind, and Paul Carr defending from the big blind.

After it checked to Molenaar on the Q♥5♠3♠ flop, he continued with a bet of 7,000. Only Naim called.

The two players checked the J♦ turn, and the 10♣ fell on the river. Molenaar bet 30,000 and Naim called.

Molenaar showed Q♦10♦ for two pair and it looked like Naim was going to muck, but instead, he turned over Q♠10♠ for the same hand and laughed with Molenaar as they chopped the pot.

Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Paul Carr opened to 6,000 from the hijack, then called after Fabian Bernhauser in the small blind three-bet to 26,000.

The dealer fanned a flop of 4♣K♣8♠ and Bernhauser continued for 14,500. It took only a few seconds for Carr to call.

Bernhauser fired a second barrel of 29,000 on the 3♣ turn. But it was too much for Carr, who folded.

While he was folding, Lars Kamphues joined the table.

Fabian Bernhauser	233,000 83,000	83,000
Paul Carr	190,000 40,000	40,000

Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Kyle Rafferty raised to 6,000 from under the gun with only Ignotas Tamasauskas calling from the small blind.

Tamasauskas checked the J♠3♥7♠ flop and Rafferty bet 9,000. Tamasauskas check-raised to 2,300, which Rafferty called.

The 8♦ dropped on the turn and Tamasauskas shoved for Raffety's remaining 56,000. Rafferty went deep into the tank, thinking for over two minutes. Ultimately, he settled on a fold and surrendered the pot to Tamasauskas.

Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Marc MacDonnell raised to 6,000 from middle position before Alec Torelli three-bet to 17,500 from the next position. When it folded to Paul Lagan in the big blind he four-bet shoved for roughly 70,000. MacDonnell folded, but Torelli called.

Paul Lagan: 5♥5♠ All in
Alec Torelli: Q♣Q♦

Lagan had to find a five to beat the queens of Torelli. However, the board ran out J♦K♥J♠7♣Q♠ to give Torelli the winner with a boat, and Lagan was out of the Main Event.

Alec Torelli	290,000 66,500	66,500

Level 13 : Blinds 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante

Fabian Bernhauser raised to 7,000 from the small blind and Edikas Jurgutis defended out of the big blind.

Bernhauser bet 11,500 on the 10♠6♠4♣ flop and Jurgutis called.

The A♦ hit the turn and Bernhauser bet 25,000, which was enough to put Jurgutis all-in. Jurgutis thought it over for a while before eventually he made the call.

Edikas Jurgutis: 5♥4♦ All in
Fabian Bernhauser: 10♦8♠

Jurgutis was behind with bottom pair to the pair of tens that Bernhauser had. The Q♣ hit the river and Jurgutis was out.
