Action has Resumed

Level 20 : 70,000/140,000, 140,000 ante

All players have been moved over to the Triton Poker room and the action has just resumed with the 30-second shot clock in play. There are 127 players remaining and the top 119 spots will get paid.

Down to 127 Players

Level 20 : 70,000/140,000, 140,000 ante

Anton Petrov's eliminated was followed by the bustouts of Sergey Kerzhakov and Andrey Kozlov and that reduced the field to the last 127 players. The sole remaining table in the main hall will now break to ensure the bubble is played entirely in the Triton Poker room, and the 30-second shot clock will now come into play.

Kozlov was unable to beat the flopped trips and rivered flush of Vahe Martirosyan, who held {10-Clubs}{8-Hearts} on a board of {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}.

Lavrentiy Ni got into a raising war with Denis Pisarev and four-bet to 2.5 million. Pisarev was having none of it and five-bet all in for 8.4 million, Ni eventually folded.

Level 20 : 70,000/140,000, 140,000 ante

Anatoliy Shershnev moved all in from the button and Natalya Yakovleva called all in out of the small blind with a near identical stack.

Natalya Yakovleva: {A-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}
Anatoliy Shershnev: {A-Spades}{K-Spades}

The kicker played on a board of {Q-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{2-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} and Yakovleva was eliminated some 10 spots off the money.

Zyrin Busts to Aubakirov

Level 20 : 70,000/140,000, 140,000 ante
Anatolii Zyrin
Anatolii Zyrin

Just when the blinds were about to go up, Anatolii Zyrin raised to 275,000 from the small blind and Daniyar Aubakirov pushed from the big blind. Zyrin called for around 15 big blinds and was in prime shape to double.

Anatolii Zyrin: {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Daniyar Aubakirov: {3-Hearts}{2-Hearts}

Zyrin joked "give him a straight" and added "deuce, deuce" before the flop fell {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{2-Spades}. Part one of the prediction came true, and sure enough the {2-Clubs} followed on the turn to improve Daniyar to a full house. A blank {J-Diamonds} river changed nothing anymore and Zyrin was eliminated.

"Sorry bro," Daniyar said while raking in the pot.

Just after the blinds had gone up, Richard Hasnir was eliminated on a different table and there are just 132 players eliminated.

Hakim and Bueker Eliminated Before the Money

Level 19 : 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Dirk Bueker
Dirk Bueker

Jeff Hakim was all in and at risk for around 2.9 million before the flop against Alexey Melnikov.

Jeff Hakim: {A-Spades}{J-Hearts}
Alexey Melnikov: {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}

The board came {9-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} and Hakim failed to get there, he will most likely jump right into the High Roller.

Dirk Bueker had just won a pot off Said Butba, but would soon after bust against the very same opponent. Bueker three-bet against Butba and called the four-bet shove only to get shown the superior pocket pair by the Russian.

Dirk Bueker: {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs}
Said Butba: {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}

The board of {A-Clubs}{10-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{5-Hearts} brought no miracle and Bueker, who was freerolling the event thanks to the Golden Chip promotion by partypoker, tapped the table with a "good luck everyone" before heading out of the tournament area.

Galitskiy and Lim Join the Big Stacks

Level 19 : 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

On the turn of a board {10-Spades}{4-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{K-Spades} with more than 2 million in the middle, Mikhail Galitskiy made it 700,000 from the cutoff and Daniyar Aubakirov shoved, Galitskiy snap-called.

Mikhail Galitskiy: {4-Clubs}{4-Spades}
Daniyar Aubakirov: {A-Spades}{9-Clubs}

Galitskiy was secured the double for massive 5.285 million while the meaningless {10-Clubs} on the river completed the board.

Chin Wei Lim sent Vitaliy Li and Kirill Kruglov to the rail, he held up in a three-way showdown with jacks against tens and ace-king.

Maxim Lykov
Maxim Lykov

The board was down {4-Spades}{k-Spades}{2-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}, and Maxim Lykov was facing a big decision from under the gun. After Lykov had checked on the river, Andrey Chernokoz bet 1,850,000 into the 2,800,000 pot. Lykov had around 3,700,000 behind him and went into the tank.

Lykov sat thinking for a couple of minutes but eventually decided to call.

Chernokoz tabled {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts} for top pair top kicker and Lykov instantly mucked to leave his opponent to pick up the 6.5m pot.

Lykov was left with 1,800,000, and within a couple of minutes, his name appeared in the exits lists in level 19.
