Level 11
: 2,000/4,000, 400 ante
Another familiar face in the crowd is Denmark's Thomas Pedersen, probably better known under his online handle Kallllle. The Dane won the WCOOP Main Event back in 2011 for more than $1.2 million, but are actually more of a cash game player, and that is also his primary purpose for this trip, but when he heard about the 6-max turbo heat, he fell for the tournament temptation.
Kallllle couldn't get anything going on his first bullet but was just reseated at the table with Kacper Pyzara with a fresh stack.
"If I get it in with the second best of it, can you make it happen?" he asked the dealer, but no deal was apparently made. The very next hand the Dane got involved anyway, when Pyzara made it 7,000 to go, Pedersen called and Nikolay Karman in the cutoff moved all-in for 36,500. With action back on Pyzara he moved all-in and though Pedersen looked like a man who considered it, he resisted and made the fold.
Pyzara: 
Karman: 
The board ran out 
and Pyzara rake in the pot. The facial expression of Pedersen didn't reveal whether he would have secured the double, had he made the call.

One player that didn't survive the final few hands was Ludovic Geilich. He four-bet jammed with ace-jack suited and was unable to improve his hand after his opponent called with ace-king.
Meanwhile, Jonty Willis had better fortunes near the end with his stack going up to 395,000.
