Hari Bercovici opened and got calls from Chris Moorman on the button and Pierre Gentil in the small blind.

The flop came {10-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}. Gentil checked to Bercovici who continued for 175,000. Moorman then raised all in for around 530,000. Gentil then re-raised all in for 1,240,000. Bercovici tank-folded and the cards were turned over.

Chris Moorman: {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Pierre Gentil; {9-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

The turn was the {j-Clubs} and the river {6-Clubs} meaning Moorman was sent to the rail in the last hand before the break.

Gentil is Anything but Gentle to Bercovici

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Pierre Gentil opened to 45,000 from early position and was called by three players all in position. The flop fell {10-Spades}{7-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} and Gentil led out for 75,000. Eric Wasylenko and Hari Bercovici were the two players to make the call.

The turn brought the {3-Spades} and Gentil moved all in for 428,000. Wasylenko quickly folded and Bercovici called it off. Gentil turned over {a-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} for top pair while Bercovici held {6-Hearts}{3-Clubs} for a small pair and straight draw. The river was the {8-Clubs} and Gentil held on for a full double up through Bercovici.

Ilich Eliminated Despite Using Two 'One Times'

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Drazen Ilich moved all in for 437,000 and got a call from Jeffrey Trudeau as well as a call from Daniel Merrilees.

"One time," said Ilich as the flop came {2-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}. Merrilees check-folded to a bet of 375,000 from Trudeau.

Jeffrey Trudeau: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}
Drazen Ilich: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}

"Nine, one time," said Ilich, arguably using his second 'one time' of the hand. It almost worked, with Ilich wincing as the oh-so-close {10-Spades} came on the turn.

The river was the {3-Clubs} and Ilich was eliminated, with Trudeau chipping up.

Chin Triples Up With Aces

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Mike Brady raised to 45,000 from early position, and Yashuo Chin moved all in for 285,000 on the button. Jordan Fox was in the big blind and called Chin's all in before the action was back on Brady. He moved all in also, and Fox asked for the count. It was confirmed that Brady was all in for an extra 313,000 and Fox called.

Yashuo Chin: {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}
Mike Brady: {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}
Jordan Fox: {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}

Board: {q-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}

All three players had a pocket pair, but it was Chin who took the pot to triple her stack to over 900,000, and Brady won the side pot against Fox.
