Level 14 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante
Anson Tsang
Anson Tsang

On the first hand, the flop read {10-Hearts}{4-Spades}{2-Hearts} when Antanas Guoga check-called a bet from Anson Tsang situated on the button. The turn fell a {a-Clubs} and this time Guoga check-raised a second bet from Tsang. The latter, with 26,000 chips left, tanked before folding his hand.

A few minutes later, Tsang raised in early position and Robert Como three-bet in the cutoff. Tsang pushed his last 26,000 in the middle and Como completed.

Anson Tsang: {a-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}
Robert Como: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}

Tsang had the dominated hand and got eliminated from the tournament after the board fell {3-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{j-Spades}, improving Como's hand into a pair of kings.

Level 14 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante
Phil Hui
Phil Hui

Phil Hui was all-in preflop from the hijack and Bryce Landier (cutoff) and Raul Paez (small blind) were playing for the side pot.

The flop came {a-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{8-Spades}, Paez check-called the bet of Landier.

The turn was the {6-Clubs}, Paez took over the initiative and led out which was enough for Landier to get out of the way.

Phil Hui: {q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
Raul Paez: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}

Hui saw Paez's cards who had flopped a set and got up from his chair as he was drawing dead.

As a formality, the {6-Spades} was dealt on the river for Paez to improve to a full house to make it an even prettier picture.

Other bracelet winners looking to add to their collection include Kevin Song, Robert Mizrachi, Josh Arieh, Shaun Deeb, Anson Tsang, Phil Hui, Matthew Schreiber, Tommy Hang, Martin Kabhrel, John Racener, and Benny Glaser.

Seven levels of play are scheduled for today with each level lasting 90 minutes as the duration of the levels has been increased from Day 2 onwards. A 10-minute break should take place after every level plus some extended breaks according to the structure sheet. A 60-minute dinner break will take place after Level 14 which is at approximately 8:30 p.m. When the players return, they will restart with Level 11 which has limits of 4,000/8,000.
