Minko On a Heater, Cracks Dan's Aces

Kai Cocklin

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Jeremy Dan opened the hijack to 100,000 and Vladimir Minko three-bet to 275,000. Once the blinds folded, Dan shoved for around 1,500,000, and Minko snap-called.

Jeremy Dan: A♠A♦ All in
Vladimir Minko: Q♣Q♦

After just losing a chunk of chips, this was a great opportunity for Dan to double up but there was still a runout to sweat.

The dealer put out a flop of Q♠8♠8♥ which improved Minko to a set, much to the disbelief of Dan.

"Good game," muttered Dan as he tapped the table.

Dan clearly wasn't confident he could hit an ace and was eliminated as neither the 6♦ turn nor 4♥ river were what he needed.

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

In a battle between the blinds, Artem Kobylynskyi had put himself at risk for his stack of 725,000 and Andrei Konopelko was trying to claim his bounty.

Artem Kobylynskyi: A♦5♥ All in
Andrei Konopelko: A♥K♣

Kobylynskyi did pick up some chop outs on the J♦J♠2♣ flop and had a wheel draw on the 3♠ turn, but the 6♥ river was a brick which meant he was eliminated, and Konopelko extended his chip lead.

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Andrei Konopelko and David Coleman got it all in preflop, with Coleman at risk.

David Coleman: 8♣8♠ All in
Andrei Konopelko: 2♣2♠

The flop came J♦K♠4♠ and Coleman was still in great shape to double up. That was until the 2♥ came on the turn, improving Konopelko to a set. The K♦ offered no help to Coleman, and he was sent to the payout desk.

Kai Cocklin

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

Vladimir Minko opened to 60,000 from the hijack and Todd Belsick shoved from the button for 320,000. Viktor Blom was in the small blind and committed his stack of around 350,000, and Minko gladly took the opportunity to eliminate two opponents.

Todd Belsick: Q♠J♥ All in
Viktor Blom: 6♥6♦ All in
Vladimir Minko: A♣10♠

Belsick managed to hit a flush on the 7♠4♠K♠9♠10♥ runout which meant he tripled up and Minko won the side pot against Blom to claim another bounty.

Nick Becker

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

Action was caught on the flop of 4♠5♠3♣, with Matthew Beinner all in and at risk against Edward Jordan.

Matthew Beinner: 10♥10♦ All in
Edward Jordan: 4♦5♦

The turn landed the J♣ and the river brought the 7♦, and Jordan's two pair, four and fives took down the sizable pot. Beinner's impressive tournament run came to an end.
