The board read 2♥4♦10♦4♥7♠ and the player in the big blind Nikolaos Angelou was in for all of his chips and the hijack player Rene Lazaro was the caller.
Nikolaos Angelou: 4♣2♣
Rene Lazaro: A♣10♣
Angelou received a nice double up with his full house.
On a board of Q♠4♠3♦8♠ Richard Bai in the big blind checked the hand over to Johnson in the hijack who opted to see a river.
The A♣ fell and Bai took a stab for 30,000. Unfortunately for him, Johnson made a pretty swift call. Bai announced "King high" prompting Johnson to table A♦2♦. Johnson was ahead the whole way but rivered top pair for good measure.
Level: 20
Blinds: 8,000/16,000
Ante: 16,000
The players are now on a 20-min break.
Alen Bakovic open-jammed from the button for this last 174,000. Matthew Wantman considered his options in the big blind as he asked the dealer for a count. Finally deciding on a call, the hand went to a showdown.
Alen Bakovic: K♥8♥
Matthew Wantman: Q♠J♠
The board ran out 2♦9♣5♠J♥8♦. Bakovic fell behind on the turn and busted.
The board was 10♣A♣4♣Q♠7♥ and the chips were in the middle between Tommy Kemter in the cutoff and Garrett Greer in the big blind.
Garrett Greer: 5♦5♥
Tommy Kemter: A♥K♣
Greer lost the hand and Kemter built a healthy stack with the pair of aces.
It was the big blind Kevin Tipper versus the cutoff Gabriel Andrade and the board read 3♠2♠10♦6♣7♥ and the chips were all in the pot.
Kevin Tipper: 9♣3♣
Gabriel Andrade: Q♣10♥
Andrade received the double up and Tipper was knocked out of the tournament.
Duane Blanchard moved all in for 90,000 from the button and Ian Matakis called from the big blind.
Blanchard J♣10♠
Matakis Q♦J♠
The 7♠Q♠3♠ flop put Matakis in control, but gave Blanchard some back door out to a straight or a flush.
A 8♦ on the turn removed the flush outs, but still left to Matakis to sweat a straight. He breathed a sigh of relief when the 2♠ hit the river, and Blanchard headed to the cage.
David Dibernardi raised to 25,000 attacking the big blind of Jake Daniels, who defended.
The board came 5♥J♠5♣. Daniels checked to Dibernardi who put a bet out of 17,000 which was called.
The Q♣ came on the turn and again Dibernardi was given the opportunity to barrel for a second street, this time for 53,000. Daniels folded.
Daniel Barriocanal was the first to act and raised to 24,000 finding Richard Bai in the big blind who defended.
On Q♥10♦7♦ Bai check-called a bet of 25,000 from Barriocanal bringing both players to the J♣ on the turn.
The players checked through to a river that brought the 8♣. Bai now took the lead, barrelling out for 53,000. Barriocanal looked pained as he was forced to fold.
