First Break of the Day

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

The first session at the tables has cut the field essentially in half as 46 Day 1 survivors were reduced to only 24 hopefuls across the final three tables. There won't be a redraw until the final nine and the feature table line-up will change for the next two hours after the first short 10-minute break.

Lottering Wins Flip to Double

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Eben Lottering
Eben Lottering

Just before the end of the level, Eben Lottering was all-in and at risk preflop and up versus Jarrod Page in one of the most classic flips.

Eben Lottering: AK All in
Jarrod Page: JJ

The 962 flop was of no help for Lottering who then picked up more outs with the 5 turn. Instead of clubs, the classic A on the river secured his double-up.

De Villiers Knocks Out Zulch

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Jason De Villiers limped in from under the gun and Jason Zulch then jammed for 110,000 on the button. Both blinds folded and De Villiers called rather quickly.

Jason Zulch: 109 All in
Jason De Villiers: K2

Neither player connected with the A4458 board and that spelled the end for Zulch just shy of the final three tables.

Cliton Taliwanth raised to 32,000 with the AJ and Ariel Mazabow called with the KQ in the big blind. The Q94 flop was checked and the A followed on the turn. Mazabow checked and Taliwanth bet 40,000 with his turned top pair.

Mazabow called and improved to a flush with the 3 on the river. Mazabow bet 140,000 and Taliwanth used two time banks before letting go.

Muller Eliminated by Habib

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Within quick succession, several players have been eliminated and Ryan Brauer departed to vault PN to a seven-figure stack. Chad Moolman and Paul Muller followed soon after and there were suddenly only 26 players left.

Muller jammed the last 141,000 with the QJ and Daniel Habib called from the big blind holding the A3.

The 976 flop was a mighty sweat with the flush draw, but the 7 turn and 2 river were both blanks.

Simon Solomon
Simon Solomon

Simon Solomon had seen his stack dwindle to only a handful of big blinds which he got in with the 22. BC Van Rooyen was very delighted to call from under the gun with the AA and had nothing at all to fear on the AQ6103 runout.
