Josh Noy

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Jyrki Hilakari limped from under the gun, and Patrick Barba raised to 92,000 while leaving just 4,000 behind. Action folded back to Hilakari, who announced all in. Barba stuck in his final chips, and the hands were revealed.

Patrick Barba: K♥K♦ All in
Jyrki Hilakari: 8♠8♥

Barba remained in front through the A♠10♦2♣ flop, but Hilakari hit the 8♣ turn to make a set. The 2♠ river saw Hilakari improve to a full house, sending Barba out before the money.

On the tail end of a A♥K♣J♥7♦8♣ board, Higor Seibel bet 140,000. Moz Edelstein instantly sighed "that's expensive" but called anyways. Seibel tabled the A♦J♣ for two pair and Edelstein mucked the A♠Q♥ with the words "I had to call".

Petrovski Doubles Before the Dinner Break

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Toni Petrovski had previously lost heaps of chips when he bet-called an all-in on a 10♣7♥6♠9♥ turn with A♠K♥ and ran into 9♣9♠ for a set, the 7♦ river only improved his opponent Martin Pound with nines full of sevens.

In the last hand before dinner, the 9♠ of Perry Jeffs was exposed during the deal and the floor was called - he received as new card. Jeffs then raised to 20,000 and it folded to Petrovski, who jammed for 86,000 to get called.

Toni Petrovski: J♥J♣ All in
Perry Jeffs: A♦K♦

"Do I save money or lose money?" Jeffs jokingly asked more to himself and saw the board run out 3♣2♦2♥10♥10♣ for Petrovski to double.

Wang Eliminated by Tschirsch

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Dean Blatt opened to 20,000 in late position and Sailong Wang three-bet to 145,000 with just over a big blind behind in the hijack. Fred Tschirsch then jammed out of the cutoff and everyone else folded.

"How many outs do I have?" Wang grimaced when he called all-in.

Sailong Wang: A♣Q♠ All in
Fred Tschirsch: K♥K♠

The K♦7♥6♦ flop was devastating for Wang as Tschirsch made the top set. "No more outs," Wang concluded, which was then the case on the ]4h] turn to make the 3♥ river a formality.
