Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

All the chips went in the middle preflop, with Alisa Baumann being at risk for a remaining stack around 220,000 against Julie Huynh.

Alisa Baumann: A♣3♦ All in
Julie Huynh: J♦J♠

Baumann was dominated but she first found a board 10♣2♠A♥6♦ to give her a pair of aces. However, a J♥ showed up on the river to give a set to Huynh and she made her way to the payout desk.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Action was followed from when Susan Faber was already all-in on the button for her remaining 200,000 and up against Tsz Liu from the hijack.

The players had just flipped their cards.

Susan Faber: K♦Q♣ All in
Tsz Liu: A♦A♣

Faber let out an "Oh really", after seeing she was up against pocket aces.

The Q♠4♥9♥ flop brought in a small sweat with the queen, and 10♣ turn also gave Faber more outs with a straight draw.

Faber bricked on the 2♥ river, and was eliminated from the tournament with around 45 players remaining.

Gabrielle Barredo

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Florence Mazet open-shoved in cutoff for 250,000 and Sonia Shashikhina announced all-in right after on the button sending Dorothy Ecaldre int he big blind to the tank. She counted her chips but ultimately decided to fold her hand, leaving the other two women to head to showdown.

Florence Mazet: K♦Q♥ All in
Sonia Shashikhina: A♠J♠

Shashikhina held an ace-high lead, and the flop of 10♥5♣J♥ strengthened her advantage. Mazet, however, had a bit of hope as she had an open-ended straight draw. Sadly, the runout 7♠5♠ didn't work to her favor ending her tournament life instantly.

Player	Chips	Progress
Sonia Shashikhina	630,000 300,000	300,000
Dorothy Ecaldre	410,000 60,000	60,000

According to the table, action folded to Maria Lampropulos, who open-shoved in the hijack for her last 230,000, holding AxKx offsuit. Julie Huynh called next to her, with nothing else than AxAx.

A dry board didn't bring any miracle to Lampropulos, who made her way to the exit.

Brewer Runs Hot

Laura Fryer

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

After a player recalled how Christine Brewer had just cracked aces in a previous hand with her queen-seven off suit, Brewer found herself all in again with two opponents just a few hands later.

Lang Yi had opened from early position and Yansong Kou moved all in from the hijack for her remaining 300,000. Christine Brewer jammed on the button for 325,000, and Lang Yi called.

Yansong Kou: 8♦8♣ All in
Christine Brewer: Q♥Q♣ All in
Lang Yi: A♣A♥

Yi was ahead, and Brewer stood to watch the runout.

The J♠A♦K♠ came on the flop, improving Yi but also giving Brewer outs with the straight draw.

Brewer hit on the 10♦ turn, and nothing changed on the 6♥ river, securing yet another huge pot for Brewer and eliminating Kou from the tournament.
