Level 5 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Clive Kikia checked the 8♣6♣5♣7♠ turn and then called a bet of 2,000 by Jonathan Hoal to check the 2♣ on the river. Hoal now made it 6,000 to go and Kikia asked more to himself "did you hit the flush?" He grabbed two chips for the call and kissed them goodbye, literally.

Hoal declared "the highest" and rolled over the A♣ first followed by the J♠. Kikia flashed his cards to Hoal before tossing them into the muck.

Level 4 : 200/300, 300 ante

Alexandra Müller raised to 1,000 and received three callers in Adrian Andritz, Tanith Rothman and Cliton Taliwanth. On the A♦J♥10♣ flop, the action checked to Andritz and he bet 1,500. Rothman and Taliwanth called while Müller folded.

The A♣ turn was checked to Andritz once more and he bet 2,800, which only Rothman called. Following the 3♥ river, Rothman checked again and Andritz fired a third barrel for 6,300. Rothman reluctantly called and her A♥2♥ chopped with the A♠5♦ of Andritz.

Level 4 : 200/300, 300 ante

Three ways to the Q♥4♣3♣2♦ turn, the action was checked by Mariska Du Toit and Harold Brooks. Keegan Naidoo bet 1,300 and was called both times for Naidoo to exclaim "then I am in trouble ... no clubs, please," he told the dealer. The river was the 3♠ and they checked all around.

Du Toit tabled her A♣2♣ for a missed straight flush draw to which Brooks mucked. Naidoo had that beat with the Q♣10♦ to win the pot.
