Level 26 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Mark Marcellus moved all in for 155,000, and George Wolff, two seats to his left, was the only player to get involved.

Mark Marcellus: 9♥8♥ All in
George Wolff: A♦10♥

There was no help on the Q♥Q♠3♣ flop, nor the 5♦ turn.

Marcellus called for an eight to appear on the river, but the deck did not cooperate as it brought the J♣ river, sending Marcellus to the rail.

Michael Fohs: K♦Q♣ All in
Jeffrey Kimber: A♦8♣

Fohs was in bad shape at first with the 8♦2♣6♣3♠ board but a K♠ hit the river to give him a pair of kings and the double up.

Level 26 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Stephen Tolbert raised in middle position to 125,000, before seeing Mikhail Zavoloka move all in for 365,000. Action folded back to Tolbert, who made the call.

Mikhail Zavoloka: A♦K♦ All in
Stephen Tolbert: A♠8♣

Zavoloka was already ahead, but the 10♥3♥K♥ was certainly welcome.

The 6♣ turn and 2♥ river sealed the deal, and the dealer pushed the pot to Zavoloka.

Jacob Wilson

Level 26 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Action folded all the way round to Pat Mccoy on the button, and he shoved his remaining 75,000, good for just a big blind and a half. As there was no small blind, big blind Loris Corbelli was calling any two. He put in the chips blind, before peeling his cards to reveal he couldn't have picked up a worse combo.

Pat Mccoy: A♥3♣ All in
Loris Corbelli: 7♠2♣

Corbelli took the lead on the 4♠7♦Q♦ flop, and held it on the 5♣ turn. Mccoy called for a deuce, and the dealer obliged, giving Corbelli two pair on the 2♦ river, but Mccoy picked up a wheel.

Player	Chips	Progress
Loris Corbelli	575,000 255,000	255,000
Pat Mccoy	200,000

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

Sebastiaan de Jonge shoved from under the gun for his last 60,000, with Q♣3♦ in his hands, and only Tanupat Punjarojanakul made the call, holding A♣J♣.

de Jonge had the dominated hand but the board brought him trips with 8♥3♥3♠K♣6♣ to almost triple up.

Tanupat Punjarojanakul	1,970,000 395,000	395,000
Sebastiaan de Jonge	170,000 110,000	110,000

Gabrielle Barredo

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

Action was picked up with Lisa Teebagy all-in against Paulo Gini, at risk.

Paulo Gini: Q♠10♠ All in
Lisa Teebagy : 6♠6♥

Gini spiked a pair immediately on the flop Q♦K♦4♠ leaving Teebagy to hope for a miracle. That miracle didn't happen when the 2♣ turn and the J♠ river dropped.

Teebagy matched Gini's chips and was left with around 70,000, just a little bit more than a big blind.

Player	Chips	Progress
Paulo Gini	985,000 225,000	225,000
Lisa Teebagy	70,000 710,000	710,000
