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

Yohan Rascar: Q♦Q♥ All in
David Funkhouser: A♦K♦

The board ran out J♠3♦4♠2♥7♦ and Rascar's pair of queens held to secure him the double up.

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

Tom Verbruggen raised 170,000 chips on a flop of 7♦Q♣10♠, and Lucas Langsweirdt called behind him, putting far too many chips into the pot. Maybe it should have been a hint.

When the 5♣ hit on the turn, Verbruggen went all in with his remaining 510,000 chips. Langsweirdt didn't hesitate to call.

Tom Verbruggen: K♣10♣ All in
Lucas Langsweirdt: A♠A♥

Unfortunately for Verbruggen, Langsweirdt was holding well-hidden pocket aces. The river 6♠ didn't deliver the flush or third 10 that Verbruggen needed to stay alive.

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

Yoann Rubele limped in the small blind and James Leonard checked his option taking both men to the flop of 10♦8♣2♦.

Leonard fired 60,000 after action was checked to him and Rubele called. Both players checked the 3♣ turn but on the river A♦, Rubele fired 100,000 which was enough to make Leonard fold.

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

Damarjai Davenport raised under the gun to 125,000, and David Funkhouser three-bet from the big blind to 875,000. Davenport moved all in, and Funkhouser snap called.

David Funkhouser: A♦J♥ All in
Damarjai Davenport: 9♠9♥

A flop of 9♦7♣2♦ gave Davenport a set, and when the 7♥ filled him up on the turn, Funkhouser was drawing dead. The inconsequential 5♣ fell on the river and Funkhouser was eliminated in 25th place.

On a flop of 7♣8♠Q♣ and a pot of around 600,000, Eshaan Bhalla, on the button, fired 150,000 after action passed to him. Oscar Johansson, the only other player in the hand, called to see a turn.

Eshaan Bhalla raised to 100,000 on the button and was three-bet by Ashton Nikzad in the small blind to 225,000. Bhalla made the call.
