Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Unsurprisingly, the action is moving at a frenetic pace in this one-day event. Saout, after just doubling up, doubled up again at the expense of Kristen Bicknell. Bicknell had a bet of 22,000 in front of her, Saout shoved 95,000 and Bicknell called it off with a shrug.

Saout's {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} was ahead from start to finish against Bicknell's {A-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} on a {3-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} board, which left the two-time bracelet winner short stacked.

At another table, Marc Macdonnell raised to 8,000 and received a call. Alex Papazian three-bet shoved 22,000, Macdonnell isolated and got it heads-up.

Alex Papazian: {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}
Marc Macdonnell: {A-Hearts}{J-Clubs}

The window card was the {J-Spades} to pair Macdonnell's kicker and end Papazian's attempt at another bracelet.
