Level 32 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Maxwell Schrack opened in the hijack and Vladas Tamasauskas defended the big blind.

The dealer fanned a flop of 9♣8♠2♠ and Tamasauskas check-called a bet of 1,000,000.

The 8♣ paired the board on the turn and Tamasauskas took the lead, firing 1,275,000 and Schrack called.

When the 10♥ landed on the river, Tamasauskas checked and Schrack jammed all in, putting Tamasauskas at risk for all of his chips. After a deep tank of about two minutes, Tamasauskas mucked his hand.

Level 32 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Jay Bloom had exactly 1,000,000 in chips in early position and he exercised his right to go all in. Adam Kievman called in late position and he wasn't thrilled about it, saying, "I feel nervous any time cards are on their backs."

Jay Bloom: 10♣8♣
Adam Kievman: J♦J♥

Kievman winced when he saw the 9♣ window card, followed by the 7♥3♣ to giving Bloom the opened-ended straight draw and a flush draw. The turn left Kievman with his eyes rolling when the A♣ made the river inconsequential; Bloom had completed his flush.

Player	Chips	Progress
Adam Kievman	3,200,000 460,000	460,000
Jay Bloom	2,100,000 200,000	200,000

Level 32 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Rami Hammoud three bet Adam Kievman's under the gun open. Kievman called.

Heads up to a flop of 10♠7♦7♥, Kievman check-shoved against the bet of 300,000 from Hammoud. Hammoud quickly called.

Adam Kievman: Q♦10♦
Rami Hammoud: A♠7♠

Just as Kievman was airing his frustrations about catching the bad end of things, the 10♥ peeled off the deck and Kievman said he'd like an adult beverage when the 6♠ completed the board.

The last lady left in the field, Jennifer Sabuel, was seen heading to the payout window, still smiling from ear to ear.

Player	Chips	Progress
Rami Hammoud	8,100,000 100,000	100,000
Adam Kievman	5,875,000 2,675,000	2,675,000

Level 33 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Jean Coisy was all in for roughly 4,100,000 from the small blind and Rafael Takeda was looking for the knockout in the big blind as both hands were on their backs.

Jean Coisy: 7♠6♠ All in
Rafael Takeda: 5♥5♠

It was a race but Coisy couldn't connect on the K♦4♦3♥K♠8♦ run out as he exited the table.
