Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Marc Fourie raised to 55,000 and Muaaz Gani called. Abraham Van Huyssteen then jammed for 165,000 in the small blind to receive two calls. The two active players checked down the 7♦4♦3♣9♠10♠ board.

Fourie showed K♥Q♦, Gani had the A♥J♥ but Van Huyssteen tripled with J♠J♣.

Shortly after, Gani raised from under the gun and called the shove by Jedd Kossew in the cutoff for 220,000.

Jedd Kossew: A♥10♠ All in
Muaaz Gani: A♠J♥

With all hearts on the 8♥6♥5♥ flop, Gani looked away and didn't want to see the sweaty outcome. Nothing changed on the 3♣ turn and 9♠ river, sending Kossew to the rail in 18th place.

Level 23 : Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Once the final two tables were set, not all players had finished moving their chips yet when one of the largest pots of the tournament unfolded on the outer table.

Sugen Singh raised to 60,000 and Jaco Mouton three-bet to 150,000 in the next seat. Singh then pushed and Mouton called for around 550,000.

Jaco Mouton: K♣K♠ All in
Sugen Singh: A♣A♦

The Q♦4♠3♦10♦8♠ sent Mouton to the rail, while Singh cemented his status as current chip leader with 15 players remaining.

Level 23 : Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Clive Kikia raised to 65,000 from the small blind and Florian Bock three-bet jammed from the big blind with the covering stack. Kikia needed some time to call it off for 445,000 but did so.

Clive Kikia: A♣K♣ All in
Florian Bock: A♦7♦

Thanks to a board of K♠8♠4♥4♣J♥, Kikia doubled once again and even surpassed Bock on the leaderboard.

"That was not a slowroll," Kikia declared and then tried to explain he could fold ace-king before shouting his "yes man" shortly after once again.

Level 23 : Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Didier Mery had lost a portion of his stack and then took on Abraham Van Huyssteen in a three-bet pot to the 10♦6♣2♥ flop. Van Huyssteen jammed all-in from the small blind and Mery used almost the entire short clock before tapping the table and folding.

Van Huyssteen nodded and flashed his K♦K♥, Marko Nortje patted himself on the shoulder when he returned to his seat.

Level 23 : Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Maureen Bloechlinger jammed for 175,000 in the cutoff and earned the blinds, as Didier Mery in the small blind reluctantly folded and Marko Nortje let go of Q♥3♥ in the bif vblind as well.

Bloechlinger jammed the next hand too, and Wesley Blom called all-in for 175,000, loudly declaring his "zero VPIP" from the live stream table as he was card dead.

Wesley Blom: A♣9♦ All in
Maureen Bloechlinger: Q♠J♠

The K♣K♥10♥ flop gave Bloechlinger an open-ended straight draw but the ace-high came out on top on the 4♦ turn as well as 3♣ river runout.
