David Prociak: 10♦7♥6♦5♥ All in
Thomas Taylor: K♦K♥J♠2♥

Prociak flopped a wrap and the 4♦ turn gave him a flush draw to go with it but the A♠ river was a brick as Taylor pulled in the pot and Prociak left the table.

Level 30 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Christopher Vitch opened 350,000 in the cutoff and Jay Harwood defended the big blind.

When the J♥9♥9♣ flop hit the felt, Harwood check-called a continuation bet of 225,000 from Vitch.

The 5♣ fell on the turn and Harwood check-jammed over Vitch's bet of 650,000 for about 2,100,000 and Vitch wasted no time making the call.

Jay Harwood: A♥8♣7♥3♣ All in
Christopher Vitch: J♦9♠7♦4♦

Harwood yelled with disappointment to his rail, "I'm dead," as he saw the cards even though he had both flush draws, Vitch already made a full house and the K♠ river was just a formality.

Ioannis Angelou Konstas: K♥Q♣J♥7♥ All in
Christopher Vitch: K♦K♣J♦3♠

the Q♠8♦5♣ flop gave Konstas a pair of queens and the J♣ turn improved him to take the lead with two pair, but the K♠ river meant Vitch made a set of kings.

Level 29 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

David Prociak limped in early position, with Thomas Taylor doing the same in the cutoff. Kharlin Sued then raised to 600,000 from the small blind and Christopher Vitch called on his left in the big blind.

Prociak tossed in the call while Taylor folded, and the dealer fanned out the K♥5♦5♣ flop. Sued moved all in for his last 220,000, with both Vitch and Prociak making the call.

Vitch checked the 6♥ turn, sliding out a call after Prociak bet 700,000. Vitch then led out on the 7♥ river for 1,500,000 and was quickly called by Prociak. All three hands were then turned up.

Kharlin Sued: A♥A♦2♣2♦ All in
Christopher Vitch: 7♠6♦5♠4♦
David Prociak: K♠7♣6♠6♣

Vitch revealed fives full of sixes, but it was no good as Prociak made sixes full of fives. Both hands had Sued's aces beat, ending his run in seventh place.

Level 29 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Thomas Taylor opened 240,000 under the gun and the action folded around to Christopher Frank in the small blind as he called off his 240,000 to be all in, and Jay Harwood made the call from the big blind.

The dealer spread a flop of A♣K♠6♥ and Harwood quickly check-folded to a bet from Taylor.

Christopher Frank: 10♠9♠8♦4♣ All in
Thomas Taylor: A♠K♥Q♠Q♦

The 7♥ turn gave Frank a wrap straight draw but the J♥ river was no help as he headed to the payout desk.
