Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Stoyan Madanzhiev opened to 120,000 from under the gun, then everybody folded to Michael Spiegel in the big blind who moved all in for 780,000. Madanzhiev asked for the count and called.

Michael Spiegel: 9♦8♦ All in
Stoyan Madanzhiev: A♠Q♥

Spiegel hit a pair on 10♥5♣A♣9♠7♠, but it wasn't enough to beat Madanzhiev's top pair.

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Sebastian Supper raised from early position to 120,000 only to face a three-bet from Santiago Montes in the small blind to 425,000. Supper went into the tank for a while before he announced all in. Montes snap called.

Sebastian Supper: 9♣9♠ All in
Santiago Montes: A♦A♥

The 10♦2♥7♠4♥10♥ board ran out cleanly for Montes, and he sent Supper to the rail and continued to build his stack. Apparently, he had aces in the hand before this one as well.

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Anders Karlsen limped from the button and Alex Faynshteyn moved all-in for 540,000 from the small blind. Karlsen snap called.

Alex Faynshteyn: 9♣9♦ All in
Anders Karlsen: J♥J♠

A magical door card for Faynshteyn when he saw the 9♠ but then the J♣ came on the flop as well and when the J♦ came on the turn and gave Karlsen quads Faynshteyn was drawing dead and sent to the rail.

Myles Phago

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Michael Hans raised to 160,000 from middle position and saw calls from Sergio Da Silva Veloso on the button and Kao Saechao in the big blind.

The flop came 10♥2♥6♣. Saechao checked, and Hans bet out for 200,000. Veloso called, and Saechao folded, and the players saw the A♠ come on the turn. Hans continued with the aggression and bet out for 575,000. Veloso called.

The river saw the 4♥ peel off, and now Hans went into the tank for a while before he announced all in. Veloso didn't think too long before he made the call and tabled 7♥8♥ for a rivered flush, he had Hans covered. Hans showed A♦10♠ for two pair but was sent to the rail.
