Timo Kamphues opened to 4 million in the hijack and David Moses jammed in his stack on the button. Leonid Yanovski put all of his chips in from the big blind and was the one at risk after Kamphues folded.

Leonid Yanovski: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}
David Moses: {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}

Moses was behind but popped up when the {q-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{2-Spades} flop brought a queen in the window. The {3-Clubs} came on the turn and the {2-Diamonds} completed the board to knock out Yanovski and leave Moses hugging his rail. The two players then shook hands before Yanovski made his way to the payout desk to collect his $102,888 prize.

Level 40 : 1,000,000/2,000,000, 2,000,000 ante
Paul Fehlig

Paul Fehlig jammed under the gun for 21,900,000 and Timo Kamphues dropped a chip to call on the button.

Paul Fehlig: {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}
Timo Kamphues: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}

The dealer spread a flop of {q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{6-Clubs} and you could see the hope drain out of Fehlig's face. When the {q-Hearts} hit the turn Fehlig had already stood up and started walking away from the table. The {8-Clubs} landed on the river as the rail exploded for Fehlig and he sat back down with over 40,000,000 in chips.

Kamphues Doubles Through Park

Level 40 : 1,000,000/2,000,000, 2,000,000 ante

Timo Kamphues jammed for 10 million in the small blind. Sejin Park thought about it in the big blind and put in the chips.

Timo Kamphues: {q-Diamonds}{9-Spades}
Sejin Park: {j-Hearts}{5-Hearts}

The {q-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} flop put Kamphues way ahead, but the {9-Clubs} turn provided a sweat if a ten were to come. However, the {k-Diamonds} completed the board to confirm Kamphues' double.

Park Cracks Kings to Double

Level 40 : 1,000,000/2,000,000, 2,000,000 ante

Sejin Park jammed in his 14.6 million stack and Paul Fehlig called.

Sejin Park: {8-Spades}{7-Spades}
Paul Fehlig: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

Park was well behind but found a lot of outs on the {q-Hearts}{10-Spades}{6-Spades} flop. The {a-Hearts} turn left him one card away from elimination, but the {9-Hearts} spiked the river to give him a straight and keep him alive.

"Lucky," Park said as he added to his stack.
