Neal Liptak
Neal Liptak

Neal Liptak shoved from under the gun for his final 3,375,000. It folded around to Boris Akopov in the big blind, who called.

Neal Liptak: {j-Spades}{10-Spades}
Boris Akopov: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

Akopov was barely ahead going to the flop, which came {a-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} to put Akopov way out in front.

The {9-Hearts} on the turn had Liptak drawing dead, while the {5-Hearts} river gave Akopov the flush and solidified his victory.

Level 33 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Joon Kim
Joon Kim

Joon Kim moved all in for 7,500,000 from the small blind and was called by Ryan Riess in the big blind.

Joon Kim: {a-Clubs}{5-Clubs}
Ryan Riess: {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}

Unforunate mistiming for Kim as he ran into Riess's beast of a hand. There was no help for Kim on the runout of {j-Hearts}{j-Spades}{3-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and the 2013 Main Event champion takes a big pot.

Ryan Riess
Ryan Riess

There were 2,000,000 in the middle on the turn with the board reading {q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{4-Spades}. Ryan Riess bet 1,400,000 from the big blind and was called by Leonardo De Souza in the cutoff.

Riess checked the {k-Hearts} river and De Souza moved all in covering their opponent. Riess made a snap call and tabled {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts} for the nuts. De Souza muttered to themselves "Oh F**k."

De Souza cut out the 10,275,000 that he owed Riess, who is now one of the biggest stacks in the tournament.

Mohammed Jaafar opened from under the gun for 800,000. Niklas Warlich called from the button while Mike Allis called from the small blind.

Ryan Phan only had 100,000 after posting his big blind and ante and went all in blind.

On the {q-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{8-Clubs} flop, Allis bet 1,500,000. It folded around and Phan finally turned over his hand.

Ryan Phan: {6-Spades}{2-Spades}
Mike Allis: {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}

Phan was in need of a miracle and wouldn't find it on the {k-Clubs} turn. The {4-Diamonds} completed the board.

Level 34 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Christopher Dow
Christopher Dow

Whilst Ryan Phan was gathering their belongings, action was occurring at the neighboring table where there was 2,000,000 in the middle and an all in and a call on the flop of {7-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{5-Spades}. Christopher Dow was at risk for 1,400,000 against Eldor Levysahar.

Christopher Dow: {7-Spades}{6-Diamonds}
Eldor Levysahar: {9-Hearts}{8-Clubs}

Levysahar flopped the nuts against Dow's top two pair. The runout of {k-Clubs}{2-Spades} didn't help Dow who busted out before the two-table redraw.

Level 34 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Masataka Kuwahata
Masataka Kuwahata

Masataka Kuwahata shoved all in from middle position for 5,750,000 and Boris Akopov called from the cutoff.

Masataka Kuwahata: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}
Boris Akopov: {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}

Kuwahata and Akopov would go racing and the race continued after the {j-Hearts}{3-Spades}{q-Hearts} flop, giving Kuwahata additional straight outs and backdoor hearts.

However, the {8-Diamonds} killed his hearts, meaning Kuwahata would need to hit his ten, king, or ace.

The river came the {9-Diamonds}, eliminating Kuwahata in 17th place.

A {j-Clubs} arrived on the river, eliminating the Brazilian in 16th place.

Eldor Levysahar opened for 1,000,000 from middle position and Basel Chaura went all in for 5,550,000 from the hijack. Levysahar called.

Basel Chaura: {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}
Eldor Levysahar: {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

The board ran {3-Clubs}{9-Spades}{2-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{6-Spades} to give Chaura a full double up, but not before a sweat as the dealer incorrectly announced payout, giving Chaura a fright before the table laughed it off.

The {10-Hearts} turn spiced things up as it gave Duarte a heart draw.

However, the {5-Diamonds} was a brick for Duarte as Jaafar went back over 10 million.

Leonardo De Souza in the small blind moved all in. Mathias Duarte in the big blind made the call and was at risk for 2,200,000.

Mathias Duarte: {j-Spades}{8-Hearts}
Leonardo De Souza: {q-Spades}{10-Spades}

Duarte was behind and couldn't connect to the board of {a-Spades}{k-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{a-Clubs} as De Souza made a flush.

Duarte who was second in chips coming into the two-table redraw has had a torrid hour and the Uruguayan heads to the cashier's desk in 15th place.
