Christian Zetzsche

Level 28 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

From under the gun, Joshua Adkins raised to 560,000 and the action then folded to Krzysztof Magott in the small blind. He announced a pot-sized reraise to 1,840,000 with Oshri Lahmani in the big blind having fewer than that behind. Lahmani folded and Adkins asked how much Magott was playing.

"Almost five," Magott replied and Adkins called a few seconds later. On the J♦8♦4♠ flop, Magott pushed all in and Adkins beat him into the pot.

Krzysztof Magott: A♠K♠K♦10♣ All in
Joshua Adkins: K♣Q♣J♣J♥

The 9♥ turn and 8♠ river further improved Adkins to a full house and he jumped to his rail, while a disappointed Magott walked off stage to Leonid Yanovski. He is the sixth place finisher for $231,101 and the final five bag up for the night.

Level 28 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Eelis Parssinen opened to 560,000 from early position, leaving 790,000 behind. Krzysztof Magott made a pot-sized raise from the big blind and Parssinen called off with his remaining stack to put himself at risk.

Eelis Parssinen: Q♣J♠J♣6♠ All in
Krzysztof Magott: A♣A♦10♥9♣

Parssinen made top set on the J♦8♥7♠ flop but was behind Magott who had flopped the nut-straight. The board did not pair on the 3♥K♦ runout and Magott took the pot while Parssinen's deep run came to an end in seventh place.

Level 27 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Manh Nguyen raised to 400,000 and David Benyamine called on the button.

On a flop of 8♥5♠3♥, Nguyen bet the pot and then called when Benyamine jammed for around 2.7 million.

Nguyen already exposed his A♣J♥5♥3♣ for the bottom two pair and jack-high flush draw while Benyamine took a few seconds to roll over his A♥J♣10♥8♣ for top pair and the nut flush draw.

Benyamine improved with the 9♥ turn but the 3♦ river gave Nguyen a full house. The phone of Benyamine fell off the side table when the Frenchman jumped up in disgust and he then headed to the payout desk.

Level 26 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Elie Nakache limped in and Mandy Calara raised to 300,000. Chip leader Joshua Adkins in the big blind potted to 1,050,000 and Calara was the only caller.

On a flop of 9♦3♦2♣, Adkins bet the pot and Calara called all-in for the rest of it with some 14 blinds behind.

Mandy Calara: A♦K♦J♥2♦ All in
Joshua Adkins: A♥A♠10♣6♥

The 6♣ turn and 9♥ river failed to improve Calara and he was eliminated in ninth place for $100,917.

Level 26 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

With two players seeing a board of 10♥6♣9♦3♠ and about 900,000 in the middle, Sonny Franco bet 350,000 from the big blind and Manh Nguyen called from early position.

Franco bet another 350,000 on the 4♠ river and was once again called by Nguyen. Franco tabled A♦8♠6♥4♦ for two pair but Nguyen turned over 5♠4♣3♥2♥ for a straight to take the pot, leaving Franco with 600,000 behind.

Two hands later, Franco opened to 350,000 from the button and was called by Nguyen in the small blind and Mandy Calara in the big blind.

The flop came A♦10♦9♠. Nguyen bet 200,000, Calara called and Franco folded, leaving just 150,000 behind. The two remaining players checked through the A♣ turn leading to the 7♥ river where Nguyen check-folded to a 400,000 bet from Calara.

Franco moved in for his last 150,000 from the cutoff in the next hand and was called by Nguyen on the button, Calara in the small blind and Oshri Lahmani in the big blind.

All players checked through the flop, turn and river leading to a final board of A♥K♠K♦6♠8♥.

Franco had Q♦9♦8♠6♣ for a small two pair. Nguyen tabled A♣J♠10♦3♠ for aces up and took the pot while Franco was sent to the rail one spot shy of making the unofficial final table.

Level 26 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

In a preflop raising war, table short stack Amit Ben Yacov was the player at risk just before the blinds had gone up and he was up against Jonathan Bowers.

Amit Ben Yacov: A♣K♦J♣8♦ All in
Jonathan Bowers: A♠A♦Q♠7♦

The J♠10♦5♠ flop kept Ben Yacov with some outs and he was not drawing dead yet on the K♠ turn when Bowers made broadway with the royal flush draw.

Ben Yacov already got up from his chair but could survive with a king or jack on the river. Instead, it was the 4♥ that followed and he bowed out in 11th place for $79,276.

Mandy Calara raised and then called the shove of table neighbour Kabeelan Rajamurthy from the next seat.

Kabeelan Rajamurthy: A♣K♣Q♣4♥ All in
Mandy Calara: A♥Q♦5♠2♠

The dominated ace hit the low kickers on the J♦J♣7♦5♣2♥ runout to send Rajamurthy to the rail in 12th place for $63,402.

Level 25 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

In a preflop confrontation, Yuriy Boyko was all in for around 700,000 and up against Oshri Lahmani who covered him.

Yuriy Boyko: Q♦Q♥9♥4♦
Oshri Lahmani: A♣K♣K♠2♦

The flop came 8♣9♠5♥ and Boyko requested a heart which arrived on the 7♥ turn. Boyko called for another heart but found no help on the J♣ river resulting in his elimination while Lahmani scooped a nice pot.

Level 25 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Jonathan Bowers opened to 200,000 from the button, Nino Pansier three-bet to 630,000 from the big blind and Bowers called.

The flop came 7♣4♠3♣ and the rest of the chips quickly got in the middle with Pansier having a bit under 1,000,000 and Bowers covering him.

Nino Pansier: A♥A♦Q♠7♦ All in
Jonathan Bowers: A♠Q♣10♣7♠

Bowers had top pair and a flush draw while Pansier had an overpair. The 10♠ turn brought in another flush draw for Bowers and the A♣ river improved Bowers to a flush to send Pansier to the rail and take down another healthy pot.
