Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Matt Stout raised it up from late position and was called by Ludovic Geilich in the blinds. Geilich check-called a bet on the Q♣J♦8♦ flop and then opted to check the A♠ turn. Stout bet another 7,000 to then face a check-raise to 28,000 by Geilich, which won the pot instantly.
Both Stout and Geilich hold decent stacks as the tournament enters the late stages of the registration period.

: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Ashish Gupta was the second-biggest stack entering a three-way all-in showdown in which Justin Bonomo had two players at risk.
The shortest stack tabled the A♠Qx while Gupta had a pair in 7♠7♥. Bonomo had both of them crushed with the K♠K♥ but Gupta made quads on the 10♣7♦3♥7♣J♦ runout.
Shortly after, however, Gupta suffered a setback when he flipped against Tom Edwards for 40,500 in chips.
Tom Edwards: 8♥8♣
Ashish Gupta: A♦Q♦
The pair remained ahead all the way on a K♥J♥3♦3♥2♥ board, as Gupta's stack was cut into more than half. Moments later, the vacated seat at the table was filled by Phil Hellmuth.

"I told you I have never busted you," Tom McCormick joked with a dry voice as he had just lost a flip to Kathy Liebert. She was all-in for 21,000 preflop with the J♥J♣ and McCormick looked her up with the A♠K♥.
The 10♠3♥3♠9♥6♦ board kept the pair ahead and Liebert sat back down.

On a completed board of K♣8♠2♣3♣4♥, Ludovic Geiluch bet small. He faced a raise to 20,000 by AJ Nimer and called to then muck upon being shown K♥J♣ for the top pair. Nimer has reached nearly ten times the starting stack and appears near the top of the leaderboard.

: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Zaen Situ picked a good time to pick up a hand during a two-way all-in situation with action between three players.
Situ: K♠K♣
Opponent 1: 8♣8♥
Opponent 2: A♠Q♠
Situ was in danger because both players had him covered. Opponent #2 had both players covered and was involved in a side pot with opponent #1, who was all in.
The dealer fanned out 6♥6♣3♣, which kept Situ in the lead. The K♦ on the turn gave Situ top full house to ensure he would triple up with the main pot of more than 100,000. His opponents were left to play for the 15,000 side pot, which Opponent #1 took down when 5♣ landed on the river.
