Ognjen Sekularac
Ognjen Sekularac

As recapped to us by Alex Lynskey, Barry Hutter opened from early position and Ognjen Sekularac three-bet shoved for about 1,450,000 from the cutoff. Lynskey isolated with {9-}{9-}, getting a fold from Hutter.

Sekularac held {K-}{Q-} and couldn't connect as the board came down {J-}{7-}{4-}{3-}{J-}.

Gerrits Jams Into Habib; Shows Eights

Level 27 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Martijn Gerrits made it 200,000 to go from the cutoff and table neighbor Ubaid Habib three-bet to 560,000 on the button. Gerrits moved all in rather quickly when it was his turn to act again and Habib asked for a count. The shove was for 2,690,000 in total, which Habib had barely covered.

After three minutes of consideration, the clock was called on Habib and he had 25 seconds to act, which ran down without any decision. Habib's hand was declared dead and Gerrits turned over his {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}.

"You should show eight nine suited, more impressive," Bart Lybaert chimed in and Gerrits replied "I'll do my best."

Mike Cordell opened to 180,000 from early position. Justin Harvell three-bet all in for 1,655,000. Michael Dyer four-bet all in from the big blind and Cordell folded.

Justin Harvell: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}
Michael Dyer: {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

The flop came {8-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{k-Clubs}. "I'll let you hit your set on the turn," said Harvell. The turn was the {10-Spades} and the river the {4-Diamonds} meaning Harvell was eliminated and Dyer moved back over nine million in chips.

Jukich Loses a Lot to Lynskey; Busts Gazlay Next Hand

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Nils Tolpingrud's raise from the hijack was called by Alexander Lynskey in the cutoff and Mike Jukich in the big blind. On the {A-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{7-Hearts} flop, Jukich checked and so did Tolpingrud, Lynskey bet 225,000 and just Jukich called. After the {7-Diamonds} turn, Jukich check-called a bet worth 475,000 and checked once more on the {A-Diamonds} river.

Lynskey made it 1,650,000 to go and Jukich gave it some consideration before tossing a single chip in for the call. Lynskey turned over the {A-Clubs}{J-Spades} for aces full of jacks, and Jukich mucked his {A-Spades}{7-Clubs} for the inferior full house face up.

In the next hand, the last one of the level, Brayden Gazlay moved all in for 805,000 and Jukich reshoved out of the small blind to isolate successfully.

Brayden Gazlay: {A-Hearts}{10-Spades}
Mike Jukich: {K-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}

This time, the board came {J-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} and Gazley was eliminated while most other players had already gone on their first break of the day.

Shorr Clips Qutami Before the Break

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante
Shannon Shorr
Shannon Shorr

In the last hand before the break, Shannon Shorr and Danny Qutami played a hand that left the latter behind with a mere 95,000. The board was reading {K-Spades}{8-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{A-Spades} and on the river, the last 845,000 from Shorr went in. Qutami had instantly called it off.

Shorr showed {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts} and a disgusted Qutami flung {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} open for the underfull. After the hand, the field went on break and chips were racked up as Shorr's table will be one of the featured tables after the break.

Ace-King Into Aces Again Eliminates Chris Da-Silva

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante
Chris Da-Silva
Chris Da-Silva

For the second time today Chris Da-Silva saw himself in an unfortunate spot and got ace-king up against pocket aces. However this time he was unable to come out the other side with chips.

The dealer informed us that Da-Silva raised to 135k from under the gun, and Peter Campo three-bet to 350k from the hijack. Kao Saechao was on the button and cold called before Da-Silva moved all in. Campo, who had both players covered, called and Saechao was unsure of his decision. Talking out loud he was unsure of what to do and ultimately open folded {a-}{k-}. Da-Silva winced when he saw the hand and also tabled {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}, and saw Campo reveal {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}.

The flop came down {5-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{4-Spades}, and Da-Silva stood up from the table and saw his fate sealed on the {j-Clubs} turn to exit just before the first break of the day.

The U.K.'s Da-Silva takes away $66,330 for his efforts.
