Palma Good at Showdown; Rheem Departs
Level 14
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Victoria Livschitz opened to 40,000 from the cutoff and called when Nicholas Palma made it 115,000 from the button, Livschitz check-called for 45,000 on the Q♠7♠5♠ flop before the K♠ turn and J♦ river checked through to showdown. Livschitz tabled 8♣8♦ for a pair of eights, but Palma had a pair of kings with K♣10♦.

Chino Rheem: AxQx
Vitalijs Zavorotnijs: Jx9x
Zavorotnijs made two pair on the Jx10x9x7x4x runout to eliminate his opponent.
