Stewart Morrison

Level 32 : Blinds 120,000/240,000, 240,000 ante

Action folded to Tanupat Punjarojanakul in the hijack, who moved all in for 730,000. The action then folded all the way to Ignacio Sagra, in the big blind, who made the call.

Tanupat Punjarojanakul: Q♦9♠ All in
Ignacio Sagra: A♦4♠

Punjarojanakul needed to find some help to survive, but the 7♣A♠9♥ flop was a bad start.

The turn 10♥ was no help, and the 5♣ river sealed his fate.

Sagra pulled in the pot as Punjarojanakul headed for the exit.

Richard Langdon shoved his remaining 1,600,000 from the hijack, and action got all the way round to Xia Wang in the big blind. She thought for a while before reluctantly making the call, only just covering her adversary.

Richard Langdon: K♦10♠ All in
Xia Wang: 8♠8♣

The runout was a huge sweat for Wang, but she managed to hold on the 9♣A♦2♥J♠6♥ runout, to send Langdon home.

Level 32 : Blinds 120,000/240,000, 240,000 ante

Kelley Slay open-jammed all-in in the small blind to be called by Preston Willier in the big blind.

Kelley Slay: Q♦J♦ All in
Preston Willier: A♥4♦

Willier was ahead pre-flop but the board ran 10♥9♦7♣J♥2♦ giving Slay a pair on the turn for a double up leaving Willier with only 170,000 behind coming into the small blind.

The very next hand, Wilier shoved all-in with his remaining chips after Ruoxiao Shi opened for 400,000. Big blind Wei Chen called the raise creating a side pot of 460,000.

All players saw the flop drop 4♣6♦8♥. After a check, Shi continued with a 300,000 bet which was enough to take the side pot down and taking Willier to showdown.

Preston Willier: K♣6♥ All in
Ruoxiao Shi: A♦8♦

Shi had top pair against Willier's middle pair. The turn 3♣ didn't change anything but the river 8♣ improved Shi's hand to trips sending Willier to the payout counter.

Kelley Slay	2,860,000 1,130,000	1,130,000

Franco Tucci: 10♦6♥ All in
Jack Maskill: J♥10♠

Maskill became effectively invincible on the 6♠J♦J♠ flop, and the 9♦7♥ runout secured him his second elimination in quick succession.

Level 31 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Nicolas Sagra shoved for a remaining stack around 620,000 and Michael Mizrachi decided to put his last 375,000 in the middle in the small blind. Srivinay Irrinki looked at his cards and called with the bigger stack in the big blind for a three-way showdown:

Michael Mizrachi: 4♠3♥ All in
Nicolas Sagra: 10♠7♠ All in
Srivinay Irrinki: A♥J♠

The dealer fanned a board K♦A♦4♣J♣A♣ and Irrinki scooped the pot with a full house while busting two players at the same time.

Level 31 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Louis Seguin open shoved his remaining 1,235,000 from the cutoff, and was about to get it through until Jack Maskill peeled his cards from the big blind, and snap-called.

Louis Seguin: A♠K♣ All in
Jack Maskill: Q♥Q♣

Maskill held as the 8♥8♦4♣4♦5♥ board came all low, and Seguin had to hit the rail just after the redraw.

Yuefan Wang Eliminated in 27th Place ($10,909)

Gabrielle Barredo

Level 30 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Yuefan Wang open-shoved for 1,180,000 in middle position. Louis Seguin, with 905,000 behind, announced all in in cutoff pushing any remaining players off the hand and taking Wang and himself to showdown.

Louis Seguin: K♦K♥ All in
Yuefan Wang: 5♣5♥

The board ran 7♠10♠2♦3♥A♦ holding Seguin's kings up for a double-up and leaving Wang with only 275,000 behind.

A few hands later, Wang shoved all in with his remaining 275,000 under the gun. The player to his immediate left, Jeremy Becker, fired 700,000 leaving behind only 40,000. It was enough to isolate Wang into a heads-up showdown.

Yuefan Wang: J♦7♥ All in
Jeremy Becker: A♦Q♥

The flop came J♥8♠A♠ and although Wang caught himself mid-pair against Becker's top pair, he expected the worse and was resigned. He started collecting his things as the dealer completed the board with a 6♥ turn and K♣ river.

Wang left the table as Becker was awarded the pot.

Cooler Spells Disaster for De Almeida

Stewart Morrison

Level 29 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Srivinay Irrinki raised under the gun, and when action folded to Daniel De Almeida, he moved all in for roughly 850,000. Action came back around to Irrinki, who made the call.

Daniel De Almeida: A♦K♥ All in
Srivinay Irrinki: A♥A♣

De Almeida found himself at risk and a long way behind.

The flop 4♣9♦3♠ was no help and left him needing running cards to win or chop the pot.

The turn 8♥ sealed his fate, and by the time the dealer had revealed the inconsequential K♣ river, De Almeida had stood up from his seat and began his exit from the tournament area.

Level 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Kelley Slay started the action by raising to 225,000 in the cutoff and Allan Le three-bet next to him to 500,000. Richard Langdon, in the big blind, thought about his move and made the call. Slay let it go.

The flop came 6♣9♦10♦ and Langdon first checked. Le continued for 310,000 and Langdon announced all in, covering Le's stack. The latter didn't take long to fold and Langdon added another pot to his stack.
