Hunichen Felts Kelopuro and Peters

Level 30 : 30,000/60,000, 7,500 ante
Hunichen Busts Peters and Kelopuro
Hunichen Busts Peters and Kelopuro

Sami "YrttiDekaani" Kelopuro got his short stack in from hijack or 571,004 and Chris Hunichen three-bet jammed the button for 1,200,928. David Peters was left with just 74,910 and also called all-in rom the small blind to create the following showdown.

David Peters: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
Sami "YrttiDekaani" Kelopuro: {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}
Chris Hunichen: {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

The {k-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} flop was bad news for Kelopuro as Hunichen pulled into the lead. The {6-Hearts} turn changed nothing at all and none of the two remaining aces showed up on a blank {3-Diamonds} river to result in yet another double knockout.

Shah eliminated in three-way all-in
Shah eliminated in three-way all-in

Michelle "hu4trollzz" Shah had doubled Sami "YrttiDekaani" Kelopuro in the previous hand to get very short once more and then ended up all-in from the button as she faced the shove of Francesco "Pachamama" Favi and the call of Hun Wei Lee in the cutoff.

Michelle "hu4trollzz" Shah: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Francesco "Pachamama" Favi: {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Hun Wei Lee: {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}

The board ran out {j-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{7-Spades}{2-Clubs} and that kept the queens in the lead as Favia more than doubled whereas Shah busted.

Stevens eliminated by Boika

Bert "ILOVECATS" Stevens raised to 42,000 from under the gun and called a three-bet to 104,000 by Aliaksei "BladeRunner1" Boika on the button. Stevens then jammed the {j-Spades}{9-Hearts}{6-Clubs} flop for fewer than the pot and Boika called.

Koon doubles through Chabra
Koon doubles through Chabra

Recep "Rony34" Aydemir doubled through Sosia "Aunty_Ninja" Jiang when he held up with {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} versus {7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} on a board of {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{8-Clubs}, which sent Jiang on a severe short stack.

Up next, Jason Koon raised to 26,400 and was called by Ajay "Ross_Geller" Chabra in the big blind. On the {8-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{3-Clubs} flop, Chabra check-raised from 28,320 to 88,800 and called the shove of Koon for 306,539 total.

Jason Koon: {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Ajay "Ross_Geller" Chabra: {a-Spades}{8-Spades}

Koon had two overcards and the flush draw. He bricked the {7-Diamonds} turn but the {7-Hearts} river provided the flush and big double.

Fast forward a few moments and Jiang shoved from the hijack and Preben Stokkan did so with a bigger stack only for Sami "YrttiDekaani" Kelopuro to move all-in over the top.

Sosia "Aunty_Ninja" Jiang: {a-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}
Preben Stokkan: {a-Hearts}{8-Clubs}
Sami "YrttiDekaani" Kelopuro: {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}

Jiang already waved goodbye before the showdown started and almost got there with a straight on the {j-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{q-Hearts} board. However, kings held up and Kelopuro claimed a double knockout.
