Brian Ng Eliminated in 16th Place ($10,780), Yuval Bronshtein Eliminated in 15th Place ($13,369)

Ryan Lashmar

Level 25 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Brian Ng shoved for 60,000 from the cutoff and Yuval Bronshtein raised to 155,000 from the button. Caleb Furth four-bet to 520,000 from the big blind and Bronshtein made the call.

The flop came 9♥10♣A♣. Furth bet 700,000, Bronshtein moved all in for about 1,100,000 and Furth called to put both players at risk.

Brian Ng: A♠J♦8♥6♦
Yuval Bronshtein: A♥9♦4♥3♣ All in
Caleb Furth: A♦Q♥J♠4♣

The rest of the board ran out 2♦10♦. No low was possible and Furth was good at showdown with aces up and a queen kicker after Bronshtein's flopped two pair had been counterfeited two eliminate both players, drag in another colossal pot and extend his lead over the rest of the field in one of the final hands of the night.

Level 24 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

In a heads-up pot on a flop of K♥Q♠5♠, Yuval Bronshtein bet 150,000 and Jonathan Lewis called. Bronshtein sized up to 340,000 on the 9♦ turn and Lewis again called.

The 9♣ river checked through and Bronshtein showed A♦A♠7♣3♥ for aces up as Lewis mucked in defeat.

Around the same time, Kyna England joined the rail to cheer on her fellow PokerNews Podcast co-host Mike Holtz.

"Oh look, Mike Holtz going deep again!" cheered England.

"Said no woman ever!" jabbed one of Holtz's table mates.

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Tyler Brown opened to 60,000 in the hijack and Jacob Perry three-bet to 210,000 on the button. Brian Ng then four-bet to 640,000 in the small blind before Brown five-bet jammed to bring calls from both opponents.

Tyler Brown: A♦Q♥Q♦4♠ All in
Jacob Perry: A♥J♠5♦2♠ All in
Brian Ng: A♠Q♠6♦2♦

The board ran out 4♣K♠3♣7♥7♣ and Brown's queens miraculously stayed ahead to earn him half the pot as his opponents split the low.

"I liked the flop. I didn't like the rest of it!" Perry said about his busted wrap.

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Nathan Gamble opened in early position and Mike Holtz three-bet to 260,000 in the small blind. Gamble then four-bet jammed for 630,000 and quickly stopped the dealer who was about to deal a flop. Holtz mulled it over and called with a bigger stack.

Nathan Gamble: A♦A♣6♥2♠ All in
Mike Holtz: A♠K♥4♥4♠

Gamble told Holtz that his hand was a "snap-fold" and Gamble's aces held up as the board ran out K♣9♥6♣7♦10♦ to earn him a big double through the chip leader.

"I was just talking about this on break," Holtz said about the hand.
