Level 16 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

With two players seeing a board of 4♥A♥8♣6♣K♠ and roughly 300,000 already in the middle, Brandon Wilson had bet 150,000 from the small blind only for Jean-Noel Thorel to move all in from the big blind, covering Wilson's remaining stack of roughly 110,000.

Wilson thought about his decision for about 90 seconds before making the call and tabling A♦9♦ for top pair. Thorel showed down A♣K♣ for two pair to take down a sizable pot and send Wilson to the rail.

Level 16 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Zhewen Hu opened in middle position before the action folded all the way to Kelvin Kerber in the big blind who moved all in.

Hu took a moment and then stuck in the chips to put Kerber at risk.

Kelvin Kerber: A♣J♦
Zhewen Hu: 6♥6♦

There was an ace in the window but then Hu drilled the set on the 5♦6♣A♠ flop. The 5♥ pair the board and Kerber wasn't drawing dead but the 7♣ river sealed the deal and Kerber hit the rail.

Level 16 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Action folded around to Chanracy Khun on the button who moved all in, covering both players in the blinds. Renan Bruschi called off in the small blind for 63,000 and Jessica Teusl called off in the big blind for approximately 125,000 creating a three-way all in scenario.

Renan Bruschi: A♠A♣
Jessica Teusl: Q♦J♦
Chanracy Khun: A♦10♠

Teusl made top two pair on the Q♠J♥9♣ flop and seemed poised to take the whole pot until the 9♦ turn gave Bruschi aces up to take the lead. The 10♦ river changed nothing and Bruschi secured a full triple up while Teusl took down the side pot.

Level 16 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

With two players seeing a board of 10♠7♥6♥ and roughly 160,000 in the middle, Rui Ferreira checked from under the gun and Jean-Noel Thorel bet 100,000 from the cutoff. Ferreira made the call.

Thorel bet 100,000 again when checked to on the A♦ turn and once again Ferreira made the call.

The river was the 9♥. Ferreira lead out by going all in for 265,000. Thorel quickly called.

Ferreira tabled A♠9♠ for two pair but Thorel turned over A♥10♥ for a slightly better two pair to take down a colossal pot, surpassing two million chips in the process.

Matthew Stumpf opened the action to 25,000 before it folded to Jessica Teusl in the big blind who moved all in for about 175,000.

Stumpf called and the cards hit their backs with Teusl at risk.

Jessica Teusl: 9♠9♦
Matthew Stumpf: K♠K♥

The full board ran out 5♥5♦Q♠7♠J♠ and Teusl hit the rail just before the three-table redraw.

Ricardo Caridade moved all in for 135,000 in the small blind and was called by Chinwei Lim in the big blind with a covering stack.

Ricardo Caridade: A♠4♠
Chinwei Lim: K♦10♠

The 9♠8♠7♠ flop gave Caridade an ace-high flush but Lim still had two outs to a straight flush to score the knockout. The 3♣ turn and J♦ river were clean and Caridade scored a full double up through Lim.

Luis Faria Eliminated in 18th Place ($18,274)

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Ryan Lashmar

Level 17 : 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

In a preflop confrontation, Luis Faria found himself all in and at risk for roughly 200,000 against Thomas Santerne who covered.

Luis Faria: A♥K♥
Thomas Santerne: 7♣7♦

The board ran out 6♠8♣5♠9♠K♦. Faria's king on the river was meaningless as Santerne had turned a straight, leaving Faria drawing dead. Faria was sent to the rail while Santerne continued to add chips to his already sizable stack.
