Level 10 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Leonard Maue opened the cutoff before Isaac Haxton three-bet from the button, and Maue called.

The Q♣J♥3♥ flop checked through to the 5♠ turn, which saw Maue check-call a 19,000 bet from Haxton.

On the 10♦ river, Maue checked for a third time to Haxton, who cut out a bet of 110,000. Maue used a time bank before he elected to call. He got the bad news as Haxton tabled Q♥J♦ for two pair, which was good to drag the pot.

Level 10 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Action folded to Samuel Mullur in the hijack who raised all in for his stack of 66,000. It then folded to small blind Tamas Adamszki, who three-bet all in for his stack of 594,000, and Daniel Dvoress made the call for less and put in his stack of about 516,000.

Samuel Mullur: A♠4♣ All in
Daniel Dvoress: 7♦7♣ All in
Tamas Adamszki: 4♠4♦

Dvoress was in front with his pocket sevens, but when the board ran out Q♣5♥Q♦A♥J♠ Mullur turned an ace to triple up and take the main pot. The much bigger side pot went to Dvoress with his pocket sevens, to give him a big boost in chips.

Samuel Mullur opened the cutoff to 25,000 and Tamas Adamszki called in the big blind.

On the K♣5♣3♠ flop, Mullur put out a continuation bet before Adamszki check-raised to 55,000 and Mullur called.

Tamas Adamszki: 5♦3♦ All in
Samuel Mullur: A♠K♥

Adamszki had flopped two pair but Muller had outs to improve. The 10♠ completed the board as Adamszki found the full double and left Mullur on fumes.

Pardo put out a huge bet of 150,000, prompting Muehloecker to go into the tank.

After using a time bank card, Muehloecker made the call and tabled K♣Q♣, besting the Q♦5♦ of Pardo.

Level 10 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Ottomar Ladva opened to 25,000 from under the gun before Masashi Oya jammed for 195,000 from the button. In the big blind, Santhosh Suvarna had a seemingly difficult decision but he elected to fold what he said was pocket fours, and Ladva called.

Masashi Oya: 10♠10♥ All in
Ottomar Ladva: 9♠9♥

Oya was in good shape to find the double and it stayed that way as the board ran out K♦J♠8♦J♦4♥, as the duo erupted in laughter as Suvarna would have found a winner on the end to win a massive pot.
