Aram Oganyan opened to 100,000 in the cutoff and Galen Hall just called from the small blind. Krasimir Yankov shoved all in for 870,000 from the big blind which got a fold from Oganyan, but Hall snap-called to put him at risk.

Krasimir Yankov: K♦9♦ All in
Galen Hall: 8♠8♦

The flop came A♦K♣6♠ and Yankov hit a pair of kings to take the lead. The 10♠ and J♥ runout changed nothing, giving Yankov a double up.

Krasimir Yankov: 8♦8♣

Chris Moorman: J♣7♥

Level 16 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Matthew Sabia raised in the hijack to 115,000. Action folded to Darren Elias in the big blind, who only started the hand with 380,000 chips. Elias made the call and the two went off to a flop.

The flop came 6♣5♥5♠ and Elias bet all but one 5,000 chip. Sabia said "raise" in an overemphatic, joking manner, considering how few chips Elias had left. Elias eventually called and the cards were revealed.

Darren Elias: 10♣6♠ All in
Matthew Sabia: Q♣Q♥

The turn 7♣ and river 8♥ were no help to Elias, and he was eliminated.

Erick Torres

Level 16 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

The hand began with a raise on the button by Adrien Delma and a call by Fabian Gumz in the big blind.

Gumz checked the flop of 3♠8♥Q♠, which led to a 75,000 bet from Delma. Gumz called.

Both players checked the 5♥ turn.

Gumz opted to bet 325,000 on the 4♦ river and was called by Delma.

Gumz revealed Q♥7♣ for top pair, which was good enough to drag the pot.

Level 16 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Brian Rast raised from the cutoff to 110,000 only for David Coleman to three-bet all in from the big blind for his remaining 550,000. Rast snap called.

David Coleman: 8♠8♣ All in
Brian Rast: A♥10♣

A nasty flop of 4♥9♠10♥ came for Coleman, and he needed to hit an eight or runner-runner straight to stay alive. The turn brought the 4♦, and when no eight came on the 7♥ river, he was sent to the cage.

Level 16 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Pavels Spirins returned from the break with just 615,000 chips and pushed all in from the hijack. The action folded to Jared Bleznick in the big blind who asked for a count before making the call.

"It can't be that bad of a call," Bleznick said to himself as the chips went into the middle.

Pavels Spirins: A♥5♥ All in
Jared Bleznick: Q♥J♥

The flop came Q♦J♠8♦ and Bleznick took control of the pot with two pair. The 6♥ and K♥ runout was no help for Spirins who was bounced from the tournament.

"Not bad?" Bleznick questioned David Peters after the hand, looking for confirmation, which he received.
