Tyler Foran

Level 21 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Daniel Negreanu opened to 240,000 in the cutoff before Christoph Vogelsang three-bet to 500,000 next to act. Gergely Kulcsár put in a four-bet to 850,000, forcing Negreanu out of the pot and Vogelsang called off his remaining 60,000.

Christoph Vogelsang: K♥J♣
Gergely Kulcsár: J♥10♥

Vogelsang was in great shape to nearly triple his stack until the Q♥8♥7♥ flop hit the board, giving Kulcsár a flush. Vogelsang wasn't drawing dead but couldn't find another heart as the board completed with the 9♠ turn and 4♠ river, sending him to the payout desk in 18th place.

Level 21 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Everybody crowded around Sergio Aguero when [Removed:554] asked him for his last 700,000 chips on a K♥A♦7♠10♦5♥ board.

At the beginning of the hand, [Removed:555] opened from the hijack, and Aguero defended in the big blind.

On the flop, Aguero called a continuation bet of 150,000, then a second barrel of 300,000 on the turn. On the river, [Removed:555] bet more than Aguero's stack, putting the soccer player into the tank.

Aguero thought about his decision for 4 minutes. He seemed like he didn't know what to do. But in the last seconds, his decision was made, and he called.

Sergio Aguero: K♠2♣
[Removed:554]: A♣8♣

Aguero tried to hero call with a pair of kings. However, [Removed:555] had the ace and won the hand. Aguero joined his emphatic rail and left in 19th place for $88,506.

Level 21 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

With a flop of A♠10♥6♦ and about 750,000 chips already in the middle, Jake Schindler check-raised a bet of 200,000 to 500,000 from Brandon Wittmeyer. Wittmeyer made the call.

The Q♦ peeled off on the turn, and Schindler slowed down with a check. Wittmeyer fired a bet of 800,000 and Schindler called.

When the 9♣ completed the board, Schindler checked once again before Wittmeyer pushed forward two stacks of greens for a bet of 1,000,000. Schindler went deep into the tank, using seven time banks, and eventually pitched his cards into the muck.

Player	Chips	Progress
Brandon Wittmeyer	5,800,000 2,140,000	2,140,000

Jake Schindler	3,000,000 1,560,000	1,560,000

Level 20 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Jeremy Ausmus shoved 740,000 in the cutoff and Henrik Hecklen called in the big blind,

Jeremy Ausmus: 5♣5♠
Henrik Hecklen: 4♥4♣

Ausmus was in great shape and the K♥7♦2♥ flop was looking promising. The J♠ turn left Ausmus only to dodge two cards in the deck but the 4♦ landed on the river, eliminating Ausmus in 21st place.
