From 15 to 14 as the Tension Grows

Level 36 : Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Espen Jorstad
Espen Jorstad

The previous pace of eliminations slowed down significantly and even though there were several all-in showdowns, only one player was sent to the payout desk.

In the meanwhile, Espen Jorstad skyrocketed into the lead after he clashed with fellow GGPoker qualifier Tom Kunze, which sent the latter back into the middle of the pack.

Let's have a look at some of the highlights while the next 20-minute break is already underway in the early morning hours in Las Vegas.

Jeffrey Farnes raised to 2,300,000 in early position with the {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds} and David Diaz called from the small blind with the {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}. The flop came {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} and Diaz check-called a bet of 2,700,000 from Farnes.

The {q-Spades} paired the board on the turn and Diaz led out with a bet of 4,000,000. Farnes called and the {2-Spades} completed the board. Diaz reached for a bet of 7,000,000 on the river and Farnes ripped all in after around two minutes, sending a dry smile on Diaz' face who instantly shook his head.

Diaz was put to the test for his remaining 11,800,000 as he dipped deep into the tank. After six minutes went by, Diaz finally threw his queens full in the muck and the players went on a break.
