Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Nguyen Tung kicked off the action with a raise to 40,000 from under the gun. Nicholas Yezzo, sitting in the hijack, responded with a three-bet to 60,000. Tung then pushed all in, and Yezzo called.

Nicholas Yezzo: A♥A♣ All in
Nguyen Tung: A♦10♣

The board 2♠4♣Q♠6♣4♠ offered no assistance to Tung, and Yezzo celebrated a successful double-up.

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Imagine finding A♥K♥ in the big blind and someone pushes all in. That's what happened to Rick Marting as James Keller went all in with his last few chips on the button with A♠9♦.

The board ran out 5♣K♣3♠6♠Q♥, offering no help to Keller. Marting easily sent him to the rail, adding a significant portion to his growing stack.

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Down to mere crumbs, Aaron Thivyanathan was all in on a J♥6♦4♥ flop holding J♣4♣. Across the dealer, Steffen Grove flicked in the few extra chips to call it off with K♠7♠.

To Thivyanathan's dismay, the dealer dropped a picture-perfect 8♣ turn and 5♣ river to hand Grove the unlikely straight and the elimination.

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

In a classic race between pocket tens and ace-jack, a Barry Greenstein-esque Ace (of Spades) on the river ended it for Adrien Guyader against Matias Nieto. At another table, Roy Salter was spotted packing his bags as well.
