Level 9 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Matas Cimbolas raised to 2,600 from late position and found one caller in Adam Saven from the big blind to see the flop come 9♠8♦2♦.

Saven checked over to Cimbolas who continued with a bet of 5,000. Saven made the call and watched as the J♦ hit the turn.

Saven checked again and again, Cimbolas put out a bet, this time in the amount of 10,000. Saven grabbed chips and made the call to see the 7♣ land on the river.

Saven checked a third time. Cimbolas paused briefly, but when he did decide to reach into his stack, he came back out with a big bet of 50,000. Saven wasn't quick to release his hand, but eventually did toss his cards into the muck to send the pot to Cimbolas.

Level 9 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

On the tail end of a heads-up pot to the 10♠6♦5♠6♥A♠ river, Jessica Teusl bet 21,200 out of the small blind.

Davidi Kitai went into a brief tank before he tossed in a single chip for the call and was shown the K♠8♠ by Teusl for the ace-high flush. That won the pot was Kitai dropped below the starting stack.

Level 9 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Frank Brannan opened under the gun to 2,500 before the action folded to Martin Zamani in the cutoff who called and the blinds both called.

The 6♦5♣A♦ flop landed and the action checked to Brannan who continued for 3,500 before Zamani put in a raise to 7,500. The blinds got out of the way and then Brannan called.

The 9♣ landed on the turn and it checked to Zamani again who went with a bet of 5,000. Brannan called again.

The 3♥ landed on the river and the action checked to Zamani one more time and he put out a singular big blind bet of 1,200. Brannan snap-called but Zamani just instantly mucked and Brannan dragged the pot without showdown.

Level 9 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Armando Romero raised to 3,000 from the hijack and got called by Tom Talboom in the big blind leading to a 8♦Q♦10♦ flop.

Talboom checked it over to Romero who continued for 3,000. Romero made the quick call to see the 9♦ hit the turn.

Action quickly checked through to the 4♣ river, on which both players checked through again to get to showdown.

Level 9 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Shaun Deeb lost a flip with king-jack against the 3♠3♣ of Marian Farcas when the 10♠8♣4♥Q♦Q♣ board brought no help. He then re-entered and took on Joseph Armideo, who called a bet by Deeb on the A♥K♥5♦7♣ turn, leaving himself 25,000 behind.

That single chip went in after the 4♦ river and Armideo check-folded.

Level 9 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Darren Rabinowitz had raised from under the gun and by the time the flop showed K♥6♥2♠, only Jonathan Newman in the big blind was still in the mix. Newman check-called for 3,000 and the 10♠ turn was checked. After the Q♦ river, Newman bet 10,500 and Rabinowitz suddenly pushed all-in with the slightly covering stack.

Newman was struck and took about half a minute to fold. Rabinowitz appeared to be visibly relieved as he rolled over the 10♣9♣ with a smirk on the face.

Level 9 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Dave Alfa snapped a picture of the cards and board before he headed out of the tournament area, having seen his tournament life come to an end for now.

The J♠J♥ of Alfa were crushed by Mikhail Vilkov's A♠A♣ and the 7♣7♦2♥8♣4♠ board changed nothing whatsoever.

Level 9 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Hayley Hanna raised to 3,000 from early position and faced a three-bet to 5,000 from Mario Hojvan in the small blind. The player in the big blind made the call as did Hanna before seeing the flop come 8♣6♦K♣.

Hojvan opted to lead out with a bet of 5,000. The big blind released his cards but Hanna made the call pretty quickly and watched as the turn brought the 9♠.

Action checked through to the K♥ river card.

Hojvan reached into his stack again and came out with a bet of 10,000 which Hanna called almost immediately and turned over the 10♥10♣ only to see Hojvan roll over the Q♠Q♣, prompting the dealer to send the pot in his direction.

Level 9 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

The flop read 9♠J♦2♦ and the action checked all the way to the button where Diogo Franco put out a bet of 5,000. Michael Giardina was in early position and called before the action was on the winner of the $25,000 High Roller Champion [Removed:607] in middle position. After a moment in the tank [Removed:608] put in a check-raise to 20,000.

Franco snap-folded but Giardina came along for the ride. The 2♥ turn was checked through to a 10♥ river.

Giardina opted to take the betting lead and put out a wager of 20,000. [Removed:608] mulled it over but eventually he found a fold and the pot was pushed to Giardina.
