Level 21
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Nabil Ben Naoum jammed for 245,000 from the hijack. Damien Luis in the small blind three-bet all-in for 790,000 and Carsten Mawick in the big blind went deep into the tank before making the call.
Nabil Ben Naoum: A♠5♣ 
Damien Luis: K♣10♣
Carsten Mawick: A♣Q♣
Mawick was about to score a double elimination by flopping two pair on Q♠A♦4♦8♦, but the J♥ river gave a straight to Luis who doubled up. Ben Naoum was eliminated while Mawick was left on fumes.
