David Salituro

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Kyosuke Nagami three-bet to 350,000 in the hijack as action folded back to Ho Lee, who four-bet to 1,025,000 in middle position. Nagami then moved all in and Lee called for 1,245,000.

Ho Lee: K♠K♦ All in
Kyosuke Nagami: J♣10♣

Lee showed a pair of kings and was a big favorite to double up as the flop came Q♦4♥7♠. The K♣ turn gave him a set but Nagami also picked up a straight draw. The J♥ river was safe for Lee and he doubled up.

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

The action was followed from Aleksejs Ponakovs's three-bet to 360,000. Rakan Abusaleh then four-bet jammed for 930,000. Ponakovs, thought for a few seconds, before he found a call, and the players flip their hands.

Rakan Abusaleh: A♦J♠ All in
Aleksejs Ponakovs: Q♣9♣

Abusaleh was looking to stay ahead to stay alive in the tournament.

The 6♥3♣2♥ flop brought a club, giving Ponakovs a backdoor flush but not much else changed.

The 4♣ turn brought a further flush draw sweat for the table.

Abusaleh held strong on the 7♠ river, and got the double, with Ponakovs missing his outs.

Christian Zetzsche

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Coming off the stream table, Jesse Lonis had seen his stack decimated to around 1.6 million after he folded to a shove and further plummeted on the leaderboard. He then took on Giovanni Zanette and four-bet jammed when Zanette made it 315,000 to go.

The latter instantly called with the K♠K♥ and the ace-queen of Lonis found no help on the 6♠4♠3♣9♠9♣ runout.

At almost the same time, Ian O'Hara also departed after he could not beat the Q♦7♣ of Kenneth Kim in the big blind with the latter rivering two pair on a Q♠8♠3♦9♣7♥ board.

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Wai Kit Lo defended from the big blind after Ian O'Hara opened to 120,000 from the hijack.

Both players checked the 7♦8♣8♦ flop, and the 10♥ brought no action either. However on the 8♠ river, Lo decided to bet 200,000. O'Hara quickly called, but his cards into the muck when Lo revealed 7♥4♥ for a full house.
