The pot stood at approximately 1,500,000 with two players looking at a full board of A♥5♣10♠9♣K♠.

Lukas Hafner, who was under the gun, emptied the clip, moving all in for 1,750,000. The player in middle position went deep into the tank, contemplating the decision for his effective stack of 930,000.

After several minutes in the tank, Hafner's opponent sent his cards into the muck.

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

A player in early position open jammed all in for 820,000 and was called by a player in the hijack. Then Bernardo Neves three-bet all in from the cutoff, which got the player in the hijack to fold.

Early Position: A♣Q♣ All in
Bernardo Neves: A♦K♦

Neves had his opponent dominated, and the 10♦10♥7♦ flop improved his situation, giving him a flush draw to take away one of his opponent's outs. However, the turn brought the Q♥ to put him behind. But Neves was quickly saved by the K♠ on the river and eliminate his opponent with a pair of kings.

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

The hijack raised to 180,000, Greg Raymer three-bet to 540,000 from the small blind and the hijack called.

The 2♦7♠2♣ saw Raymer continue for 300,000. The hijack didn't back down.

The 8♥ turn prompted Raymer to move all in, emptying the clip for approximately 1,350,000. The hijack went deep into the tank, agonizing over their decision.

"Next time," said the hijack as they pitched their cards into the muck.

Both the remaining players folded for Mazet to take the pot.

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

William Wilkinson had a short-stacked player at risk that saw a wild runout.

Middle Position: 3♠3♥ All in
William Wilkinson: A♠A♣

Neither player connected with the 8♥6♠J♥ flop but a 3♣ on the turn gave the short-stacked player hope. That hope didn't last too long as Wilkinson hit his set on the A♥ river to snatch the pot away at the last opportunity.

Macias Takes Big Pot

Tyler Boyer

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Action was picked up after a player was all in with two callers.

After the flop came A♦4♠K♦, the small blind checked to Marivel Macias in early position, who announced all in. The small blind quickly folded 10♥10♦ face up, and it was Macias and the all-in player heads up.

Opponent: A♠Q♠ All in
Marivel Macias: A♣K♣

Macias had her opponent dominated by her top two pair, but when the turn was the J♠ it gave him a flush draw and a Broadway straight draw. However, the 6♦ river was a safe one, and it gave her the pot, knocking out her opponent.
