Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

On the first of two big pots, Justin Zaki was on the button and three-bet an open from Brett Murray in the hijack. Murray four-bet all in for around 3,000,00 chips and Zaki called.

Brett Murray: A♥K♦ All in
Justin Zaki: A♦A♣

Aces held on 9♥10♦8♦9♠4♦ to knockout Murray and send a big pot Zaki’s way.

The very next hand, Zaki raised from the cutoff and faced an almost-all-in from Frank Lin in the small blind. Lin made it 1,815,000 and when action came back to Zaki, he called and flipped over 2♦2♠, unaware that Lin still has a 100,000 chip behind.

The dealer dealt out 10♥3♦8♦ and Lin took his time to try to catch the payout jump. Zaki asked Lin to tell him who was ahead, but Lin refused, jokingly pointing to the remaining chip he was playing for. After the clock ran out, he checked and Zaki put him all in. The waiting game repeated and after the clock ran out the second time, Lin called, flipping over K♥Q♠.

The turn and river were J♠ and 5♥, no help to Lin and he was out.

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Ilija Savevski opened 400,000 under the gun and Michael McNeil jammed for 2,900,000 on the button. Mike Allis was in the small blind and called off his last 725,000, and Savevski made the call.

Mike Allis: 9♥7♥ All in
Michael McNeil: A♠J♦ All in
Ilija Savevski: A♥Q♦

Allis confidently yelled, "I'm going to win this!"

But, unfortunately for him the 6♣4♥2♦3♣8♥ runout meant Savevski eliminated both him and McNeil from the tournament.

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Yongkyun Kim on the button moved all-in with his very small stack and faced Nan Hong in the small blind and Adam Levine in the big blind.

On a flop of 7♦4♠A♠, Hong bet 200,000 and he was called by Levine. But after Hong jammed for 820,000 on the Q♣ turn, Levine folded.

Yongkyun Kim: A♦K♦ All in
Nan Hong: 7♠5♠

Kim remained in the lead on the 4♦ river and scooped the pot.

On the next hand, Hong jammed for 1,580,000 from the button, and Levine called.

Nan Hong: K♦9♥ All in
Adam Levine: A♠J♦

Levine hit two pair on 2♣5♣Q♣A♦J♥ and eliminated Hong.

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Clark Kokich jammed in early position and the action folded around to Brett Murray in the big blind. He asked for a count, and once the dealer told him it was 885,000, he made the call.

Clark Kokich: A♦6♦ All in
Brett Murray: K♥7♥

The K♦Q♦6♣ flop connected with both players, giving Murray a pair of kings while Kokich flopped bottom pair and a flush draw. The J♠ turn gave Kokich some extra outs but the 9♥ river was not one of them.

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

Players were already all in and at the river. David Rivera was at risk from the cutoff. Dmytro Bystrovzorov was the only other player in the hand and sitting under the gun.

David Rivera: K♣K♥ All in
Dmytro Bystrovzorov: A♣10♣

The 6♦6♣6♥10♠7♠ runout gave Rivera sixes full of kings and he doubled through Bystrovzorov. Bystrovzorov was left with around 1,000,000 chips after the hand.

A few hands later Bystrovzorov was seen leaving the table after the floor called "payout" having lost his remaining chips.

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

Christopher Bangs jammed from the hijack for 1,235,000 and the action folded around to Jorge Postigo in the big blind. He asked for a count, and eventually tossed in a call.

Christopher Bangs: J♣J♦ All in
Jorge Postigo: A♦2♣

The 9♣6♠6♣ flop was safe for Bangs but the A♠ turn gave Postigo a pair of aces. The 10♦ river was no help, sending Bangs out of the tournament.
