Take Two for Chidwick
Level 5
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Mikita Badziakouski opened to 4,500 from under the gun and was promptly three-bet by Stephen Chidwick to 11,500. The action folded around to Juan Pardo in the big blind, who asked for a count of his opponents' stacks before four-betting to 26,000.
Badziakouski folded before Chidwick moved all in and was called by Pardo.
Stephen Chidwick: 
Juan Pardo: 
Chidwick was flipping for his tournament life, but the 
runout was no help. Pardo stacked his additional chips, while Chidwick quickly went to re-enter.
On a nearby table, Cary Katz busted for the second elimination of the night.

Vogelsang Takes From Dvoress
Level 7
: Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
A battle of the blinds between Daniel Dvoress and Christoph Vogelsang produced a sizeable pot after the 
flop and Dvoress led out for 23,000 on the 
turn.
Vogelsang made the call, and Dvoress checked the 
river.
Vogelsang used a time bank card before sliding out 175,000 chips, more than enough to put Dvoress all in. Dvoress did not take long to muck his hand, as Vogelsang added to his stack.

Dan Smith raised to 6,000 and was called by Juan Pardo on the button to his left. Sam Greenwood also called in the big blind, and all three players checked the 
flop.
Greenwood and Pardo checked again on the 
turn, before Pardo fired a bet of 22,000. Greenwood called and Smith got out of the way.
Greenwood checked the 
river and Pardo used a time bank before continuing for 86,000. Greenwood then used two time bank cards of his own before sliding his cards to the dealer.
