"pompii23" was behind holding live cards and the {k-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} flop gave them a gut shot straight draw.

The {a-Clubs} paired "Fort Matilda" and "pompii23" needed to spike a jack on the river to stay alive but the {4-Diamonds} appeared on the river ending their tournament in eighth place.

In Level 23 (7,000/14,000/1,750), "Requalsl" raised all in for 52,928 from the cutoff and "cncly1314" called from the big blind.

"Requalsl": {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}
"cncly1314": {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}

It was a classic race with "Requalsl" ahead but the {5-Spades}{8-Clubs}{k-Clubs} flop gave them a sweat as it gave "cncly1314" the nut flush draw.

Unfortunately for "Requalsl" the sweat didn't last long as the {9-Clubs} turn completed "cncly1314's" flush and the {4-Clubs} river eliminated "Requalsl" on the money bubble.
