Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Georgrios Sotiropoulos raised to 60,000 from the hijack and Jamie Dwan shipped all in for almost 500,000 on the button. Once the blinds folded, Sotiropoulos made the call.

Jamie Dwan: 3♦3♠ All in
Georgios Sotiropoulos: J♥J♣

The flop of A♠7♣2♣ didn't offer much help to Dwan and the K♦ turn meant he was drawing to just two outs. Neither of those outs appeared on the river as the 5♠ completed the board which meant Dwan was eliminated.

A full board of 7♦2♠Q♦10♣4♠ was showing and with around 325,000 chips in the middle, Georgios Sotiropoulos had bet the pot on the river. Ihar Soika had the decision and, according to his tablemates, was taking too long so the clock was called on him.

Once the tournament director started the countdown, Soika shoved all in for 930,000. The action was back on Sotiropoulos, who after spending some time thinking, reluctantly made the call.

Soika tabled Q♥4♥ for a rivered two pair and Sotiropoulos flipped Q♣5♣ then mucked it.

On a board of 4♠9♥7♠6♦, Kharlin Sued had bet 150,000 on the turn, which Bogdan Munteanu called, and Pedro Madeira folded.

Sued seemed to accept defeat which prompted Munteanu to flip over 9♣8♥ for a pair of nines, which was good for the pot.

Bogdan Munteanu	3,100,000 700,000	700,000
