Lampert Saved by the River
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
It folded to Ramon Lampert in the small blind, who put his final 25,500 chips in the middle. "83-83" was in the big blind and made the call with the covering stack.
Ramon Lampert: Q♥8♦
"83-83": A♣K♦
All was looking good for "83-83" on 4♦9♣2♦2♣, but Lampert rivered two pair when the Q♦ hit. A double-up for Lampert, while "83-83" was left with an amount he must still like.

Weber Busts Two
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Big blind Rajeeban Selvakumar was already all-in before the flop was dealt, and a side pot was brewing between Karl Weber and Ivan Kocic. Weber was in the small blind and checked to Kocic, who bet 12,500. Weber made the call and the J♣ turn was flipped over.
Weber checked again and Kocic bet 20,000 this time. Again, Weber made the call. The river then fell A♦ and Weber now led all-in. Kocic called with a big sigh and his suspicions were confirmed when Weber tabled 10♦9♦ for the rivered straight.
Kocic had played a set of kings with K♠K♥, but it was no match for the turned straight of Weber. Selvakumar hit nothing of importance with his 5♠3♥ and both players exited the tournament, while Weber moved on to be one of the bigger stacks in the room.

Steady as She Goes for Van Bavel
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Big stack Arjan van Bavel raised to 5,500 from under the gun and the table folded to Timo Rauschenbach in the big blind, who opted to defend.
On a flop of K♠7♥8♠, Rauschenbach check-called the 5,000 continuation-bet from Van Bavel, and did so too for the 13,500 bet on the turn.
The river Q♦ then went check-check and Van Bavel's K♦10♦ bested the 8♥9♦ of Rauschenbach.

Zivanovic Fails to Triple Up
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Zoran Zivanovic raised to 6,000 from the hijack and received calls from Rajeeban Selvakumar on the button and Emil Abadgiev in the big blind.
The flop of 8♠8♣9♠ saw Zivanovic put in his last 12,000 chips after a check from Abadgiev. Both players called and gave Zivanovic a chance to triple up.
His opponents then checked down the 3♦ turn and 7♥ river. All players had to show and Abadgiev's 9♣6♠ beat the A♦Q♣ of Zivanovich and 10♦7♦ of Selvakumar.
Zivanovic zoomed away from the table, while Abadgiev stacked some more chips onto his stack.

Final Break as Registration Closes
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
The players have a small 10-minute break while a chip race is happening. The end of this break also means the end of the end of the late registration period.

Heim Holds as His Rise Continues
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Patrick Tober raised to 6,000 from under the gun before Emina Pracalic made it 16,000 from the hijack. Roger Heim cold-called from the button and Tober joined in as well.
The flop was K♠5♠6♠ and Tober checked to Pracalic, who fired a continuation-bet of 16,000. Heim then shoved all-in, covering both his opponents. Tober quickly folded, but Pracalic needed a moment to assess the situation. After it had passed, he decided upon a call, and a showdown was ordered.
Emina Pracalic: 10♣10♦
Roger Heim: A♥K♦.
No tens came during the 2♥9♥ runout and Precalic was eliminated from the tournament. Meanwhile, Heim is steadily climbing and is over the 250,000 mark.
