Paccone folded while Rankich made the call.

Myles Phago

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

Anatoly Zlotnikov raised from middle position to 24,000 only to be three-bet to 65,000 by Jordan Westmorland in late position. Justin Babiy in the cutoff then four-bet jammed all in for his last 175,000. Zlotnikov got out of the way, and Westmorland called.

Justin Babiy: A♣A♦ All in
Jordan Westmorland: A♠10♣

The flop came 5♠K♣J♣ and then Babiy's nightmare card, the Q♣ peeled off on the turn and gave Westmorland a gutshot straight. The Q♥ came on the river, and Babiy' aces had been cracked, and he was sent packing.

Player	Chips	Progress
Jordan Westmorland	650,000 563,000	563,000
Anatoly Zlotnikov	620,000 487,500	487,500

Joseph Berg

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

Romain Locquet raised to 27,000 from under the gun and was called by Gordon Hamilton on the button. Dario Paccone then went all-in from the small blind, risking roughly 450,000. Locquet made the call, and Hamilton folded.

Dario Paccone: Q♣Q♥ All in
Romain Locquet: A♠A♣

Paccone needed help to keep his hopes alive in Event #37. Unfortunately for him, the dealer did not assist, as the 2♣7♦9♥9♦4♣ runout sent Paccone to the rail.

Romain Locquet	2,100,000 665,000	665,000

Doyle Brunson Doesn't Work for Enselme

Myles Phago

Level 19 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Action was folded around to Arnaud Enselme in the small blind, who made up, and Stephen Foutty checked his option from the big blind.

The flop came A♣J♠2♥ and Enselme led out for 12,000, only for Foutty to raise to 35,000. Enselme called, and the players saw the 8♣ fall on the turn.

Enselme slowed down and checked now, but Foutty bet out for 75,000. Enselme called.

The K♦ came on the river, and Enselme checked again, only for Foutty to bet 300,000, which put Enselme all in. Enselme went into the tank and eventually called and tabled 10♣2♣ for a pair of deuces but was way behind Foutty's A♦2♦ for two pair!

Player	Chips	Progress
Stephen Foutty	1,400,000 1,330,000	1,330,000

Mir Gaskari moved all his chips to the middle of the table and got a call from Wenxin Huang.

Mir Gaskari: Q♠Q♦ All in
Wenxin Huang: A♠A♥

The run out of the board: K♦J♥5♠4♦9♠

The aces of Hung were too strong for the ladies of Gaskari, so she sent him to the rail.

Level 19 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Thanh Bui raised from middle position to 35,000 and was called by Michael Patterson who was next to act. From the cutoff, Josef Snejberg raised all-in to 260,000.

Bui called and Patterson folded.

Josef Snejberg: 10♣10♥ All in
Thanh Bui: A♥A♣

The board of K♠8♣6♥K♥2♣ could not save Snejberg, as he fell victim to the bullets.

Level 19 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

The action was picked up on a board of 6♦J♦7♥8♠ with roughly 450,000 in the pot. Last year's WSOP Ladies event Shiina Okamoto checked the turn from middle position, Laith Edris in the hijack bet 125,000 and Okamoto called.

The A♥ river was checked by Okamoto, who went deep into the tank after Edris jammed for approximately 175,000.

Okamoto eventually made the call, but immediately sent her cards into the muck when Edris flipped over A♠A♦ for a set. She was slightly covered, so she was eliminated.

Laith Edris	1,000,000 695,500	695,500
