Bryn Kenney

Orpen Kisacikoglu was the last player to buy (back) in and bumped the field to 50 entries, of which 26 remained. However, upon arriving at his table Kisacikoglu all but witnessed the elimination of Bryn Kenney. The American poker pro got his stack in with {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} and Oleksii Khoroshenin put him at risk with the {A-Hearts}{5-Hearts} after a missclick as per table chat.

The board came {6-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{4-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{7-Spades} and that was it for Kenney.

Break

Level 8 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Another break for the players, another chip gone when they return. Play resumes in 20 minutes, no 500-chips will be in play anymore by then.

Mateos Rides on the River to Eliminated Kisacikoglu

Level 8 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

One hand was still going on at the end of the level and it was Orpen Kisacikoglu who was at risk with the {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}. Adrian Mateos lookedhim up with the {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} and Kisacikoglu had the best of it until the river of a board of {5-Spades}{4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{Q-Hearts}. Mateos got there with a queen and that left Kisacikoglu empty-handed.

Peters Eliminated for the Second Time

Level 8 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Julian Thomas and Bartlomiej Machon were eliminated in quick succession and the latter as well as Adrian Mateos re-entered soon after. David Peters was also back in for the second time but ran out of chips in quick succession.

Hand 1:

Mustapha Kanit opened to 10,000 from early position and Peters moved all in from the very next seat. JC Alvarado called all in from the small blind and Kanit folded.

JC Alvarado: {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}
David Peters: {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts}

The board of {K-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} let Alvarado double for 94,500 and Peters was left with fewer than one big blind.

Hand 2:

Kanit raised to 10,000 and Igor Kurganov moved all in for 88,500. All opponents folded and Kurganov raked in the pot.

Hand 3:

Down to 3,500, Peters moved all in first to act and Ivan Luca isolated out of the small blind with a raise to 15,500.

David Peters: {8-Diamonds}{7-Spades}
Ivan Luca: {9-Spades}{7-Hearts}

After a board of {J-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{3-Spades}, the minor kicker advantage played and Peters was eliminated for good.

Level 8 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Like the previous hand, Dietrich Fast limped in, this time from the cutoff. Small blind Xiaoyang Luo completed, big blind short stack Nick Petrangelo checked.

The blinds checked on {J-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} and Fast bet 6,000. Luo called, Petrangelo folded.

Both checked the {3-Spades} on the turn and the {7-Clubs} on the river completed the board. Luo bet out 13,500 and Fast instantly called. Luo showed {10-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}, the pot went to Fast who tabled {Q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}.

Palumbo a Half-Millionaire After Busting Mateos

Level 8 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Rocco Palumbo raised from the button and called the shove of Adrian Mateos in the small blind for around 130,000.

Adrian Mateos: {Q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Rocco Palumbo: {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}

The board of {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{7-Spades}{A-Spades}{9-Diamonds} left Mateos empty-handed and he looked over his shoulder at the tournament screen to check the current blinds and how long remains until the next break, which also represents the remaining time to re-enter.
