Maxime Taldir

Level 20 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Hon Cheong Lee opened to 35,000 from middle position and both Rodney Assous on the button and Mukul Pahuja in the big blind called.

On a flop of 9♦Q♠4♦, Lee continued for 45,000, but only Assous called.

The 2♦ came on the turn and Lee fired a second barrel of 100,000. It was too much for Assous, who folded.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Action picked up on the river in a hand between Ebony Kenney, in the small blind, and Mr Mcswiney in early position.

With over 100,000 in the pot, and the board reading 6♦8♦J♠4♠A♠, action went check-check, and Kenney tabled the winner with 9♠9♦, for a pair of nines.

The next hand, Jason Corbett raised in the hijack, and Kenney three-bet on the button, which prompted Corbett to fold.

The hand after that, Kenney opened in the cutoff, which got folds all around, and she tabled AxQx.

A board of 4♦K♣J♣7♦8♠ was on the table and Andres Gonzalez was raking in a pot that had all of Vitor De Souza Coutinho's chips in it.

Coutinho's hand was mucked but Gonzalez had J♦J♠ for a flopped set which was enough to eliminate his opponent.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Action picked up on the river in a hand between Nicolas Vayssieres, in the big blind, and Fahredin Mustafov, in the cutoff.

With about 275,000 in the pot and the board reading 2♠10♥5♣K♣K♥, Vayssieres checked and Mustafov put out a bet of 200,000. Vayssieres went into the tank and another player at the table called the clock.

Vayssieres eventually flicked in the call and was shown the bad news when Mustafov turned over K♠Q♦, for three of a kind, kings.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Damien Le Goff opened to 40,000 from under the gun and Stuart Fischbein shoved all in from middle position for over 400,000. When it got back to Goff, he made the call.

Stuart Fischbein: K♠K♦ All in
Damien Le Goff: Q♣Q♦

Goff was way behind but went way in front on the Q♥4♥10♦ flop as he hit his set.

Fischbein needed to catch a king but never managed as neither the 7♠ turn nor 9♠ river offered any help.

"Yup, that's how it always ends, but I had a lot of fun playing with you all," said Fischbein after he was eliminated.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Nick Maimone opened to 45,000 from the cutoff and was called by Damien Le Goff in the small blind, but David Jackson in the big blind squeezed to 160,000. Maimone called but Le Goff folded.

Jackson checked the K♦7♣2♣ flop then raised all in for 360,000 after Maimone bet 200,000. Maimone quickly called.

David Jackson: K♥8♣ All in
Nick Maimone: A♣9♣

Jackson hit top pair on the flop, but Maimone still had a flush draw. However the 9♦ turn and the 7♦ river didn't change anything so Jackson doubled up.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Action picked up on the flop in a hand between Abhinav Iyer, who was under the gun, and Fabrice Bigot, in the big blind.

With a large pot already brewing, the rest of the money went in on the 8♣7♥J♦ flop, with Iyer having Bigot covered.

Fabrice Bigot: K♠J♣ All in
Abhinav Iyer: Q♦10♦

Iyer picked up additional outs on the 2♦ turn, needing a queen, nine, or diamond to knock out Bigot.

The river brought the 5♥, and Bigot's pair of jacks held to earn him the double up.

Maxime Taldir

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Haiyang Yang opened to 45,000 from middle position and he was only called by Xuming Qi in the cutoff.

On a flop of 10♣7♠Q♣, Yang continued for 40,000 and Qi quickly called. But it was the last action of the hand, as both players checked the Q♦ turn and the 4♠ river.

First player to reveal his cards, Yang flipped over A♣J♠. Qi had A♦J♦ as well so they split the pot.
