Jaryd Jardien pushed all-in for 102,000 in the cutoff in the last hand before their table broke. Max Deveson on the button asked for a count and folded, Dave Nundloll in the big blind called with the slightly larger stack.

Dave Nundloll: 3♥3♣

The mighty pocket pair remained ahead throughout the 7♦6♦4♠J♠10♠ board to send Jardien out next.

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Max Deveson moved back to the live stream table only to bust with a short stack soon after. By then, Muzamil Gothey already had collected his money as Renier Britz claimed another knockout.

Abraham Van Huyssteen is on the verge of elimination as well after he defended the small blind and bet-folded the A♣4♠2♣ flop to a shove by Marko Nortje. The latter flashed his A♠K♠ before collecting the pot.

Dave Nundloll got a shorter stack in with the A♥J♥ via three-bet jam and Sean Botes called holding the K♥Q♠ in the hijack.

The 8♣6♣3♠J♦Q♦ and the roller coaster runout gave Botes the superior pair on the river.

Two Triple Ups on Table 12

Level 20 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Clive Kikia check-jammed for the last 66,000 on the 9♦6♣4♦ flop and was called by Wesley Blom as well as Marko Nortje. The two active players checked down the J♠ turn and 10♥ river.

Kikia showed the 10♦7♦ for a gutshot and flush draw that instead made a pair of tens. Nortje's 7♠6♠ and the A♦Q♣ of Blom failed to score the knockout.

Abraham Van Huyssteen then tripled up with Nortje involved again when his king-queen rivered a pair of queens.

Level 20 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

On the outer tables, Gregory Maistry jammed it in with K♥Q♣ and ran into the A♦A♥ of Florian Bock.

There was no escape on the 9♦7♦6♣3♥5♣ runout and that spelled the end for Maistry.

Up next, another two short stacks were at risk on the feature table.

Rajeev Poonhath: J♣8♣ All in
Greg Mokgoathleng: 5♦5♣ All in
Sugen Singh: K♠K♦

With just a minor sweat, the A♠4♦2♦7♠10♦ board reduced the field to just 25 hopefuls in the second level of the day.

Sugen Singh	525,000 193,000	193,000

Level 20 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Samuel Finder was all-in preflop for around 125,000 and was called by Florian Bock from the next seat.

Samuel Finder: K♠Q♥ All in
Florian Bock: J♣J♥

One of Finder's outs was folded but he took the lead on the K♥9♥4♦ flop. Bock then spiked the J♠ turn to leave Finder with four outs to a straight. None of them came as the 3♠ river sent Finder out in 25th place.

Level 20 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Before their table broke, Adam Gamsy took a smaller chunk out of the large stack of Marko Nortje and calmed down the surge of the chip leader. They both headed to table 11 on which Gamsy then called the shove by Eben Mare for 153,000 preflop.

Eben Mare: A♣9♦ All in
Adam Gamsy: A♦J♦

The inferior kicker struck gold on the 10♦9♣8♠A♥2♦ runout and Mare put a dagger into Gamsy's stack.
