Level 29 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Brendon Kaufman opened 325,000 in middle position and John Sellars three-bet to 635,000 on the button, leaving just 25,000 behind. The blinds quickly folded and Kaufman moved all in. Sellars called off his 660,000 total and both hands were tossed on their backs.

John Sellars: Q♦Q♥ All in
Brendon Kaufman: A♦5♦

The K♣Q♠4♥ flop gave Sellars a set of queens to leave Kaufman drawing thin. The J♦ turn gave Kaufman a gutshot straight draw, but the A♥ river was no help, sending the double to Sellars.

Joseph Sefrna opened 350,000 in middle position and Jonathan Fhima clicked it to 580,000 on the button. The action folded back around to Sefrna and he took about 45 seconds before announcing all in. Fhima had about 1,600,000 total and snap-called as he rolled his hand face up.

Jonathan Fhima: A♥A♠ All in
Joseph Sefrna: K♥K♣

It was the ultimate preflop cooler and the J♣5♣4♥ flop changed nothing but the K♦ turn gave Sefrna a set to take the lead as Fhima let out a loud, "No!"

The 4♣ river improved Sefrna to a full house as Fhima waited for his payout slip.

Allen's Queens Reign Supreme

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Bryan Allen had an incredible run with two back-to-back hands. In the first, he went all in and was called by his neighbor, Michael Clacher. Allen revealed Q♦10♥, trailing Clacher’s K♣K♥.

The flop brought some hope for Allen with Q♥4♥6♠, giving him a pair of queens but still behind Clacher's kings. The 3♠ turn didn’t change the situation, leaving Clacher in the lead. However, the river delivered the 10♦, giving Allen two pair and knocking Clacher out of the tournament.

Immediately after, Allen found himself in another all-in situation, this time holding Q♦Q♥ against his opponent's A♠Q♠. The queens held strong, eliminating another player and allowing Allen to nearly quintuple his stack in just two hands.

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Jacob Gruny was sitting in late position and got it all in preflop against Renzo Monterio in the big blind. Monterio had Gruny slightly covered.

Jacob Gruny: 9♥9♦All in
Renzo Monterio: A♥J♥

The dealer opened the 9♣6♦2♦ flop to give Gruny a big advantage. Monterio was drawing dead on the 7♥ turn and the river was the Q♥. Gruny got the double-up while Monterio was left with just one big blind.

Monterio busted the next hand against John Mooney after Mooney’s Q♣J♠ held up against his 8♠3♣.

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Panagiotis Mavritsakis opened 240,000 under the gun and the action folded around to Michael Perret in the small blind as he went into the tank for about two minutes before making the call.

The dealer fanned a flop of K♠10♦4♥ and Perret snap-jammed his 1,105,000 in the middle. After asking for a count, Mavritsakis made the call.

Michael Perret: A♣K♣ All in
Panagiotis Mavritsakis: K♥J♠

Both players flopped top pair but Perret's ace-kicker was good as the board completed with the 10♣ turn and the Q♠ river.
