Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Only 31 players remain spread across four tables and Chad Moolman as well as John Woolley were among the casualties.

Ariel Mazabow leads the outer tables for now with Franco Da Matta following suit. Da Matta four-bet a smooth 118,000 into Stephen Kurland, who forfeited his three-bet of 16,000 and folded the 10♠10♥ face-up.

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Marko Nortje raised to 7,000 and Jon Persent defended the big blind to a flop of 7♦5♥2♣ with some 75,000 behind, with the stack sizes displayed wrong for the Norwegian on the stream table. Persent check-raised to 21,000 and then called all-in.

Jon Persent: K♥7♥ All in
Marko Nortje: 7♣6♦

The 7♠ turn gave both players trips and the 6♠ river was a sucker punch for Persent, as Nortje spiked the three-outer for a full house.

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Marko Nortje raised from under the gun with the Q♠5♠ and Eben Lottering called in the big blind with the A♦5♣. Both trapped by checking the K♦5♦5♥ flop before Lottering bet the 10♠ turn for 7,000. Nortje raised to 22,000 and then called Lottering's shove for 151,000.

Lottering had the best of it but the 10♣ river denied him a big double.
