Sam Soverel made it 20,000 from the button with only Brad Ruben calling from the small blind.

Two checks followed the K♣8♦A♣ flop to see the 9♦ hit the turn. Ruben bet 42,000, which Soverel called.

Ruben opted to check the 5♠ river, prompting Soverel to bet 136,000. Ruben thought for around two minutes, counted out the calling chips, but then, decided to fold. Soverel slid his cards face down to the dealer and added some more chips to his stack.

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Four players saw the flop come down A♦6♥8♣. Evgeni Tourevski checked the small blind, and John Richards led out for 15,000 from the big blind. Corel Theuma called from the hijack, and Tourevski also flicked in the call.

Tourevski checked the 8♦ turn, prompting Richards to bet 30,000. Theuma called, but Tourevski folded.

Heads-up now to the 10♣ river. Richards jammed for roughly 55,000, which Theuma instantly called.

Theuma turned over A♣8♠7♦7♣5♠ for a full house, with an eight-seven low. Much to Theuma's surprise, Richards showed A♠8♥3♣2♦2♠ for the same full house, but a better low, meaning Richards got three-quarters of the pot.

Huck Seed bet 25,000 from the hijack on a flop of 5♠2♥A♠ before George Alexander raised to 100,000 on the button. Matthew Wantman then put in his last 150,000 from the small blind and Nicolas Milgrom reshoved for 250,000.

"Okay, I'm out," Seed said as he folded, but Alexander put both opponents at risk.

Matthew Wantman: 7♦5♣5♦4♣3♠ All in
Nicolas Milgrom: A♥8♠6♦4♦3♥ All in
George Alexander: Q♠6♠5♥4♦3♦

All three players had flopped a wheel, while Alexander had a redraw to a flush that would give him most of the pot. The turn was the 10♥, while the 8♦ fell on the river and all three players chopped the pot.

"That was absurd. I'm so lucky to still be in this tournament," Wantman said as they took their chips back.

Tyler Brown made it 11,000 under the gun with Richard Green calling from the next seat, and Yevgeniy Timoshenko calling from the hijack. Richard Green squeezed to roughly 60,000 from the small blind, which got Brown to fold, but Monnette back-jammed for 84,000. Timoshenko called with a stack that covered both players, after which Green committed his remaining 17,000.

Richard Green: K♣K♥Q♥8♠4♥ All in
John Monnette: A♦J♥10♦3♣2♠ All in
Yevgeniy Timoshenko: A♣A♥9♥8♦7♣

Timoshenko had the chance to send two players to the rail. However, the board came Q♠9♦Q♣3♥7♥ to give Green the winner with trip queens. Green tripled up, and Timoshenko won the small side pot, eliminating Monnette.

As Monnette was leaving the table, he accused Timoshenko of slow rolling with his aces. After a little back and forth between the two, Timoshenko got the final words of "Go f#$k yourself" in as Monnette exited the tournament area.
