Level 15 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

With about 500,000 in the middle on the 9♠6♦2♠6♠ turn, Fedor Holz checked to Alejandro Lococo who used a time bank before betting 125,000. Holz made the call.

The 2♦ completed the board on the river, and Holz checked to Lococo as he tossed three time bank chips into the middle. After about a minute, Locooco pushed forward a bet of 560,000. Holz went into the tank, this time he was the one to throw in a time bank chip. Eventually, Holz mucked his hand and the dealer pushed the pot to Lococo.

Level 14 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Everyone folded to Matthias Eibinger in the small blind, who decided to limp. In the big blind, Jeremy Ausmus checked his option, and both of them discovered the flop 9♦J♦2♦.

Eibinger checked at this point and then called Ausmus's bet of 30,000. On the turn K♠, he check-called a second barrel of 105,000.

The 9♠ came on the river, and Eibinger checked for the third time. Ausmus fired out a bet of 345,000, which was almost his entire stack as he only kept a single red chip worth 5,000.

Eibinger used a time bank to make his decision. And after a minute, he called. Ausmus showed 6♦3♦ for a flush hit on the flop. Eibinger mucked his cards and let Ausmus double up.

The dealer fanned a flop of K♣8♥4♠, and Jensen continued for 200,000, which was enough for Smiljkovic to surrender the pot.

Level 14 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Andrew Pacheco shoved under the gun for about 360,000 and John Hennigan called off his stack of 325,000 from a couple of spots to his left.

Andrew Pacheco: K♥10♥
John Hennigan: A♦K♦

The flop of A♥Q♥2♠ connected with both players, giving Hennigan top pair, and Pacheco a royal flush draw. The 9♥ turn completed Pacheco's flush, leaving Hennigan drawing dead and the 4♠ river was just a formality.
