Level 10 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

While Koray Aldemir was eliminated and leaving the Horseshoe, Muskan Sethi three-bet to 10,000 after an open by a player in early position. But in the cutoff, a player reraised all-in to 40,000. The initial raiser folded, and Sethi called.

Cutoff: J♦J♠
Muskan Sethi: A♥K♣

Sethi took the pot thanks to a king on the flop on 7♦9♦K♥7♥10♣. Her stack is now above 100,000 chips. However, she is still far from Claude Nganga Codru at her table, as he is one of the chipleaders of the room with 330,000 chips.

Early position raised to 2,600 with both the mid and late position players having called to the flop.

The flop came J♥3♦A♠ and the early position player led out for 4,200. Only Mikael Guenni from the middle position made the call.

With the J♣ having peeled off on the flop, both players were quick to check.

The river was the 7♠ and the early position player was quick to check. Guenni fired for 7,800 and received a call from his opponent. He revealed A♥A♦ to take down the pot after perfectly slow playing his aces.

From the hijack, Jon Pardy opened to 3,600. The button called, as well as the big blind.

On 10♥6♥3♠, the ACR Team Pro continued to 4,200. But this time, only the big blind completed to see the turn 8♥.

Pardy fired 8,200 more on this street. And once again, his bet was called. The river 4♦ was checked by both players, and Pardy showed 10♣9♣ for a pair. His hand was better than his opponent's, who had "a pair of sevens with the seven of hearts."
