Level 10
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Danny Hannawa bet the Q♥J♦9♣Q♣3♥ river for 100,000 from under the gun. Eelis Pärssinen was the only opponent left from the next seat and tank-folded with a short stack behind.
One hand later, both players clashed for the 67,000 Pärssinen had behind.
Eelis Pärssinen: K♣10♣9♦7♥ 
Danny Hannawa: A♠A♣J♦3♥
The aces were cracked on the 10♠7♠2♦Q♣6♦ runout for Pärssinen to survive.

Level 10
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Joni Jouhkimainen had raised his button before Robert Cowen made it 70,000 to go in the big blind. Jouhkimainen made the call for the A♠9♠7♠ flop to roll off.
Cowen continued for 50,000 and Jouhkimainen called. The 4♠ turn was then checked by both before the A♣ hit the river.
Cowen checked once more but Joukimainen fired 150,000 into the pot, enough to put Cowen all in.
Cowen quickly folded his cards as he left himself with less than 15 big blinds.

Level 10
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
With three players seeing a board of K♣8♠5♣ and about 27,000 in the middle, Phil Ivey bet 25,000 from the small blind. Jordan Spurlin folded from the big blind while Arthur Morris made the call from the hijack.
Ivey fired another barrel for 60,000 on the J♦ turn and was once again called by Morris.
On the 8♦ river Ivey bet enough to put Morris all in and Morris called off with his remaining stack of about 45,000.
Ivey had kings up with K♦Q♥10♣7♥ but Morris had a better two pair with A♦A♠A♥4♠ to take the pot.

Down to just 44,000, Tyler Stafman was all in and at risk with the J♣J♥10♠3♦ against Tom-Aksel Bedell, who revealed the 10♦9♣7♥6♥.
The board ran out J♠6♣5♠2♦A♥ and Stafman doubled with a set.
"Nice hand," Bedell said.
Stafman replied, "nothing much I can do."
One table over, Najeem Ajez lost the vast majority of his stack in a clash with Santhosh Suvarna with the latter hitting trips on a board of 7♥5♦2♠7♦K♣ holding the J♠9♠8♣7♣.

: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Michael Duek raised to 28,000 under the gun and Jared Bleznick called in the seat next to him. Martin Dam then spent two time banks before defending his big blind, and the trio saw a flop of 9♠10♦3♦.
Dam led out with an all-in of 99,000, after which Michael Duek tossed in a raise to 300,000 or so. Bleznick then jammed all in and Duek called off for roughly 550,000 chips.
Martin Dam: J♦8♠7♠5♠
Michael Duek: Q♦Q♠8♣5♦
Jared Bleznick: K♥K♦9♦3♠
The 10♠4♠ runout meant that Dam made a flush for the main pot, while Bleznick's kings and tens were good for the huge side pot. Duek's queens and tens left him with nothing, and he swiftly departed from the table.

Najeem Ajez opened from early position and received calls from Daniel Aharoni in middle position and David Benyamine in the cutoff before Dylan Smith raised to 50,000 from the small blind. Ajez moved all in for around 100,000, Aharoni and Benyamine folded and Smith made the call with a covering stack to put Ajez at risk.
Najeem Ajez: A♣9♦9♠2♣
Dylan Smith: A♦K♠6♦4♦
The board ran out Q♥J♠K♣7♥7♣. Smith's pair of kings were good at showdown and he took the pot while Ajez made his exit from the tournament area.

Level 10
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Not long ago, Eelis "EEE27" Pärssinen was left with a mere ten blinds but doubled these up. Since then, things have gone far better as the Finn chipped up while Ren Lin vanished from his table and re-entered.
In the latest hand, Pärssinen bet the heads-up flop of A♥J♦3♣ for 22,000 out of the small blind. Danny Hannawa called on the button but folded the 6♠ turn when Pärssinen bet another 70,000.
