Curtis Oliver raised to 12,000 from the small blind and Jamie Gold called from the big blind. The flop was 10♠9♦6♦.
Both players checked the flop and then again on the Q♥ turn. It was check-check once more on the 4♣ river and they both turned over their cards.
"You got it," Gold said.
"I don't know about that," Oliver responded as he turned over 8♥5♠. Gold had 8♠6♠ to take the pot with a pair of sixes.
Soojo Kim raised from under the gun to 8,000 and received three callers in Daniyar Aubakirov, Adrian Mateos on the button and Aneris Adomkevicius in the big blind. The Q♥7♥7♠ flop was checked to Aubakirov, who bet 6,000 and his three opponents all called.
On the 5♠ turn, Aubakirov bet 13,000 again and Adomkevicius was the only one to check-call, then check the J♣ river. Aubakirov moved all-in for 36,000 and he got through with it.
Jack Germaine opened the action with a raise and Namhyung Kim three-bet to 22,000 on the button. Lexy Gavin-Mather then pushed all-in for around 90,000 and Germaine folded, while Kim instantly called.
Lexy Gavin-Mather: A♠Q♥
Namhyung Kim: A♣K♣
The kicker problem was never solved on a board of J♣9♥6♠A♥10♥ and Kim's king sent Gavin-Mather to the rail.
Alexandra Botez opened to 8,000 from early position and Stefan Nemetz defended from the big blind.
The flop came J♦10♦2♠. Nemetz checked, Botez fired an 8,000 continuation bet and Nemetz opted to fold.
Stephen Garland defended the big blind and then open-jammed a shorter stack on the J♥10♥9♦ flop. Vitor Dzivielevski instantly tossed in a T-25,000 chip for the call and the cards were revealed.
Stephen Garland: J♠5♠
Vitor Dzivielevski: K♥J♦
The 6♠ turn and 3♦ river spelled the end for Garland, who wished all his table mates good luck on the way out.
Arun Sardana faced a bet worth 15,000 by Alexandra Botez on the 10♥3♥2♥Q♥ turn and quickly surrendered, check-folding and revealing the Q♠ face-up. A few minutes later, Botez dragged in an even bigger pot and leaped above the average.
Level: 14
Blinds: 3,000/5,000
Ante: 5,000
Jan Strazisar raised to 10,000 and earned one caller thereafter. Emilien Pitavy then three-bet to 47,000 before Strazisar announced a reraise, carefully sorting chips and pushing forward 245,000. One fold later, it was up to Pitavy who announced call and wanted to turn over his cards already.
His table neighbours instantly urged him to wait as he may have more chips behind, which was indeed the case. Once most chips of both players were in the middle, they headed to the K♥J♠2♦ flop. Pitavy was all-in for another 25,000 and Strazisar called.
Emilien Pitavy: Q♥Q♣
Jan Strazisar: 10♥10♦
The Q♠ turn gave Pitavy a set while Strazisar now gained more outs than he had one street earlier. However, the 4♥ ruver was a blank and Pitavy scored an enormous double.
Jin Hoon Lee opened to 10,000 from the hijack and Isaac Haxton, who was recently left very short-stacked, moved all in for 17,000. Lee made the call to put Haxton at risk.
Isaac Haxton: K♦K♥
Jin Hoon Lee: Q♠10♥
The board ran out J♠4♦2♥K♠7♠. Haxton's set of kings were good at showdown and he scored a much-needed double up through Lee.
More than one dozen players have been eliminated in the past and previous and current level, as the field went down to just 128 hopefuls.
