Jakob Miegel raised to 30,000 on the button, with Scott Bohlman making the call in the big blind.

Both players then checked down the 2♦ river. Bohlman turned over 10♥8♦ for two pair, nines and eights. That was good enough to claim the pot, as Miegel mucked.

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Ryan Stiner opened under the gun all-in, and got called after long hesitation by Nikola Gunchev in the big blind.

Ryan Stiner K♥K♠ All in
Nikola Gunchev A♠A♣

As the dealer ran out the board: Q♥6♥9♠10♠7♠, Stiner already stood up to get ready to hit the rail. The table told Stiner to wait, but he mentioned that his 430,000 chips were less than Gunchev his stack. Unfortunately for Stiner the Kings didn't hold up and the stack of Gunchev was bigger indeed.
