Calum Grant

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

Abdullah Al-Shanti opened to 100,000 from under the gun before Jonathan Tamayo three-bet to 375,000 from middle position.

James Reid moved all in for his last 865,000 on Tamayo's direct left. Action folded to Al-Shanti, who opted to fold after some brief thought. Tamayo put in calling chips for the cards to go on their backs.

James Reid: Q♦Q♥ All in
Jonathan Tamayo: A♥10♥

Tamayo paired up on the K♣10♠3♣ flop but Reid remained ahead. However, the A♦ turn gave Tamayo the lead.

Reid called for a jack but the 3♦ river confirmed his exit instead. Reid passed on his trusty shot glass to Tamayo.

Tamayo told the the table that he doesn't drink but would do shots of apple juice out of it instead.

Bruno Porto opened to 110,000 from middle position with 10♠10♣ and Daniel Wendorf called from the hijack with J♦J♣. Charles Alex-Barton three-bet to 460,000 from the cutoff with A♦K♥ and both the blinds folded. Porto took some time but folded his tens and Wendorf called Alex-Barton the raise.

The flop came 8♣7♣K♦. Wendorf checked to Alex-Barton who bet 250,000. Wendorf called.

The K♣ turn brought a flush draw for Wendorf, but the trip kings for Alex-Barton. Wendorf checked and Alex-Barton moved all in for 1,530,000, sending Wendorf into the tank.

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

Kevin Ordet three-bet jammed for the last 280,000 out of the small blind and was looked up only by Sami Bechahed in the under-the-gun position.

Kevin Ordet: 7♥7♠ All in
Sami Bechahed: K♦J♦

The pocket pair remained ahead all the way on the Q♠4♥2♥5♠3♣ runout as Ordet survived to extend his deep run.

Boris Kolev was not as fortunate and bowed out recently, as did David Prociak and Yiannis Liperis.

Dan O'Hair

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

Diogo Coelho opened to 100,000 on the button and Troy Quenneville defended his big blind.

Quenneville check-called a 90,000 bet from Coelho on the 9♦Q♣K♣ flop and a hefty 725,000 bet from Coelho on the 8♠ turn.

The 10♥ completed the board and Quenneville checked a final time, prompting Coelho to shove, which was enough to put Quenneville all in for approximately 2,600,000.

Quenneville tanked for some time, but eventually thought better of it and laid his hand down.

"Show one?" Quenneville asked.

"No," Coelho responded with a grin.

Orson Young opened to 105,000 from middle position before Jimmy Gorham made it 275,000 on his direct left. Yegor Moroz four-bet to 620,000 from the cutoff, folding out the button, the blinds and Young. Gorham then moved all in for around 1,500,000 and was snap-called by Moroz.

Jimmy Gorham: A♥K♣ All in
Yegor Moroz: A♣A♠

Moroz's rockets sent Gorham to the rail after the J♥5♦5♠6♦7♦ runout.

David Salituro

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

Tasuku Maruo was all in for around 1,500,000 from early position as Kevin Davis put him at risk from the hijack.

Tasuku Maruo: A♣A♥ All in
Kevin Davis: K♣K♠

Maruo had woken up with aces in a massive cooler as the 7♠6♠3♦ flop left him poised for a double up. The turn, though, was the K♥ and Davis hit a set to take the lead.

The river was the J♠ and Davis took the pot to send Maruo to the rail following a brutal bad beat.
