Frank Visser

Level 18 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Stephen Chidwick and Michael Moncek were heads up on the 3♠9♠A♥ flop. Chidwick checked from the big blind to Moncek in middle position, who fired a pot-sized bet of 425,000.

Chidwick then put Moncek all in for about 810,000, and Moncek quickly called off.

Michael Moncek: 10♣9♦8♦6♣ All in
Stephen Chidwick: A♦K♣5♥3♥

Chidwick's two pair became a full house on the 3♣ turn, leaving Moncek drawing dead. The river came the meaningless J♠ as Moncek said his goodbyes and took his exit.

Shortly before, John Riordan was eliminated as the first player after the redraw in 23rd place.

Alex Foxen: Q♠Q♣J♥3♠ All in
Quan Zhou: 9♦8♥8♠7♠

The J♦ fell on the turn and the 2♠ hit the river, and Foxen had the bigger boat to score a double-up.

Level 19 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Santhosh Suvarna was under the gun and chose to limp. Action got to the small blind, who completed, before Frank Crivello raised to 250,000 from the big blind. Suvarna called, but the small blind folded.

Crivello immediately moved all in on the 5♠6♥6♦ flop, for Suvarna's effective stack of 475,000. Suvarna called straight away, and the cards were turned over.

Santhosh Suvarna: 9♦9♣7♦7♣ All in
Frank Crivello: K♠K♥Q♠10♦

Suvarna was behind and at risk, but the 7♥ turn changed everything, as Suvarna now had a full house.

The river A♦ didn't help Crivello retake the lead, and as his hand was moved into the muck, Suvarna raked in a full double-up.
