Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

With a pot of 130,000 in the middle, three players looked as a board of A♣4♥A♠K♦7♣ on the river after action had fully checked around on the turn.

From the big blind, Petar Kalev fired 87,000. Sean Ragozzini folded quickly from early position. Action was then on Davidi Kitai on the button.

Kitai went into a deep tank. After a few minutes, the clock was called. The countdown was given and it hit zero before Kitai acted soo his hand was declared dead.

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Action picked up on the river with a board of A♦2♠9♦5♣5♦ and a pot of about 200,000. This was a battle of the blinds and Jeff Madsen was in the big blind and had just raised his opponent's bet of 140,000 on the river to 325,000. The small blind went into the think tank for awhile and finally folded.

He queried Madsen, "Did you have 4-2 of diamonds"?

Madsen replied, "I don't know what I had, I blacked out during the hand".

Madsen raked in a very sizeable pot.

An opponent moved all in with 17,000 from the hijack and action folded around to Bogdan Munteanu who defended the big blind.

Hijack: A♦Q♦All in
Bogdan Munteanu: 10♦2♣

The hijack was looking strong but the J♠J♦10♠ flop swayed things in Munteanu's favor.

The 5♠ 8♠ runout kept Munteanu ahead with two pair, and the hijack was eliminated from the tournament with around 280 players remaining.
