Level 12
: Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante
In a battle of the blinds to the J♠8♦2♠ flop, SM checked and Okkie Fourie jammed for 42,000 in the next seat. After some consideration, SM called with the superior stack.
Okkie Fourie: J♣10♥ 
SM: A♥Q♦
The top pair of Fourie was ahead and it stayed that way on the 4♦ turn as well as 3♠ river runout.

Table short stack Adam Woolf got a shove through to win urgently needed chips but remains below 20 big blinds.
Over on the other table, Alvin Pillay raised to 13,000 out of the small blind and Khushil Shah defended the big blind. On a 6♥4♥4♣ flop, Pillay moved all-in and Shah folded.

Adam Woolf moved all-in for 37,500 from an early position and Samuel Tebege called on the button. Nic Ioannoy then came along in the small blind before David Ng in the big blind announced all-in over the top. Tebege asked for a count on the shove, which happened to be for 195,500.
The German was covered by a small margin and called all-in while Ioannoy gave it some thought to then fold the Q♥10♣ face-up.
Adam Woolf: 8♦8♥
Samuel Tebege: J♥J♣
David Ng: A♦K♣
"Just a little flip," Tebege joked and then demanded "keep the board low" after the 9♦6♠2♠ flop. The 10♠ turn and 2♦ river changed nothing and Tebege doubled for 176,500 to leave Ng short, knocking out Woolf. Also short is "SM" who has an equally short stack as Ng.

SM was all-in with the A♦Q♠ and ahead against Okkie Fourie with the K♥J♠. The K♠7♦6♣ flop favoured Fourie and so did the 8♥ turn as well as the K♦ river.
That brought the field down to the last 15 and the next short stack was all-in soon after in David Ng. Fourie and Darryl Shaff called to check down a queen-high board. Fourie flashed his 10♣9♣ for the flopped straight on Q♠J♣8♠ and Ng was gone with the A♠6♦, Shaff mucked A♥6♥.
"Good flop," Fourie grinned as he leaped close to the average.
As confirmed by tournament staff a few minutes ago, Day 1b is scheduled to finish with 12 players remaining or upon completion of level 15 - whichever of the two comes first.

Until the Q♦5♣2♥7♣ turn, Samuel Tebege in the big blind and Okkie Fourie in the hijack created a pot of around 130,000 and opted to check to the 8♠ river. Tebege now made it 65,000 to go and Fourie mulled it over for a while to then call.
There was no showdown as Tebege mucked to forfeit the pot. Fourie won the hand to surpass Tebege and Darryl Shah declared "Okkie in the house!"

Joe Rahme had become one of the short stacks and jammed twice without being called, once revealing the A♠J♣. He then defended against a raise by Nahum Lim and check-folded the A♦6♣6♠3♠ turn when Lim applied the pressure.

Nahum Lim raised and Roy Bitton just called to then see Bitton check-call a small bet on the 9♦7♥2♥ flop. After the A♦ turn, Bitton checked and instantly called the shove by Lim for what appeared to be around 120,000!
Nahum Lim: K♣K♥
Roy Bitton: A♣7♣
Lim was in dire shape with the kings and had just two outs at his disposal. The river was the insignificant Q♦ and Lim bowed out, reducing the field to the last 13 contenders.

Level 12 has come to an end with 13 players remaining and one more casualty will be needed to end the second of four starting days. During the 15-minute break, some smaller chip denominations are raced off.
