Silver Makes the Right Call on Friedrich

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Tony Dunst raised to 250,000 from under the gun and Nate Silver called in the cutoff. Stephen Friedrich then shoved all in for 1,990,000 from the button and Dunst folded.

Silver spent several minutes agonizing over the call before he put in the chips.

Stephen Friedrich: A10
Nate Silver: AJ

"Good luck. Actually, not good luck," Silver joked as the two opponents stood up and shook hands prior to the 98Q flop. The board ran out 46 and Friedrich was sent to the rail.

"Now I got to go back to work. Engineering's tough," Friedrich said on his way to collect his payout.

Metalidi Makes a Payneful Exit

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Picking up the action at the end of the hand, Artem Metalidi had just called off his stack on a board reading Q6754 against Joshua Payne. His call was no good, as Payne held AA to send his opponent to the rail and send his own chip count soaring up the leaderboard.

Elsewhere, Alejandro Perez also was seen heading to the exits.

Dea Gets Three-Bet Respect; Cohuet Confirmed as Last Woman Standing

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Estelle Cohuet
Estelle Cohuet

Sachin Joshi opened to 220,000 from under the gun before Andrew Dea made it 650,000. Mark Teltscher asked Dea how much he had behind and after it was confirmed, the Brit opted to fold.

Action folded back to Joshi, who decided to give his opponent some respect and open-folded his A10.

"Pretty hand," said Joshi as he tossed his cards in the muck.

As the hand was playing out, Dea asked Estelle Cohuet if she was the last woman standing. Joshi pointed out Nikita Luther was also still in. However, as he finished his sentence, the elimination of Luther was confirmed over the loudspeaker.

The table congratulated Cohuet on being the final remaining woman in the Main Event. However, she noted that she didn't just want to be the last woman standing, but the last player standing.

Cohuet is a force to be reckoned with as she was one of the winners in Winamax's Top Shark event.

Hulme Spikes the Turn to Take Out Luther

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Nikita Luther
Nikita Luther

Nikita Luther was all in for her last 2,285,000 in the small blind and up against Andrew Hulme in middle position.

Nikita Luther: AK
Andrew Hulme: AQ

Luther had Hulme dominated and was a favorite to double up as the flop came 552. The turn, though, brought the Q and Hulme came from behind to leave Luther a card away from elimination.

The 9 fell on the river and Luther was sent to the rail, leaving Estelle Cohuet as the last woman remaining.

Bengozi Falls to Liu

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Vitor Bengozi moved all in for his last 1,330,000 from middle position before Ping Liu re-jammed on the button. The blinds got out of the way to put Bengozi officially at risk.

Vitor Bengozi: 99
Ping Liu: JJ

Bengozi was in rough shape and found no help on the 2410 flop. The J turn ended things abruptly prior to the inconsequential Q river to bring Bengozi's deep run to a close.

Tim Van Loo raised to 225,000 with QQ and Masato Yokosawa called holding 109. Chris Lee, with JJ, then moved all in from the button for 1,440,000 and Daniel Weinman called with AK in the big blind. Van Loo also called with his queens, while Yokosawa folded.

The flop came 9AA and Weinman led out for 800,000. Van Loo called to create a side pot as the 6 fell on the turn, where Weinman bet another 1,250,000.

Van Loo folded this time, and Weinman's trip aces took out Lee's jacks once the 8 completed the board on the river.

This time, ace-king came out on top. With a board running out K33A9 Tosoc became one of the biggest stacks in the field.

Liran Betito
Liran Betito

"Let's goooo!" Liran Betito screamed from the top of his lungs after being heads up against Timothy Faro on a flop of 843 when the A fell on the turn.

Faro was all in with the Q7 for a flush, but Betito, with the K8, had the nuts. That made the 9 river a formality as Faro was sent to the payout desk.
