Level 24 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Despite having a large stack earlier in the day, Jonathan Jaffe found himself with just a few big blinds and called off his last 800,000 from the big blind against Jakob Miegel in early position.

Jonathan Jaffe: A♣6♣ All in
Jakob Miegel: A♥10♠

Jaffe called without looking at his cards and had a chuckle saying, "How do I have an ace?"

Although Jaffe hit his ace on the Q♠7♠2♠Q♥A♦ runout, it was unfortunately not good enough as he headed to the exit.

Level 25 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Heads-up on a flop of K♦Q♣3♦, Vlad Lache bet 900,000 from middle position and Mustapha Kanit called in the big blind.

Lache bet another 2,400,000 on the 5♣ turn, but this time Kanit came back with an all-in shove. Lache burned through multiple time banks and took several minutes before committing his last 7,200,000.

Lache showed A♦A♥, but he had been outdrawn by Kanit's K♠Q♦ for top two pair. "Five," Lache pleaded, but the 3♠ was just as good as Lache made a better two pair to double up.
