Gumz Survives, Ditoto and Vaysman Eliminated on the Bubble

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

Three players were at risk after the second hand of the bubble.

The first was Fabian Gumz, who opened the action with a raise to 45,000. His only caller was Alexander Lynskey, who defended his big blind. Lynskey then check-jammed the J7K flop, and Gumz snapped him off. The two waited for the floor's signal before showdown.

Fabian Gumz: KK All in
Alexander Lynskey: 65

The A peeled off on the turn, which was on track to brutally send Gumz away with less than a mincash, but the J river denoted salvation, as his boat outdrew Lynskey's flush.

Isiah Ditoto was in danger from middle position, as he saw his 201,000-chip stack being called by Qiang Xu to his right.

Isiah Ditoto: QQ All in
Qiang Xu: KK

Ditoto ran into kings which improved into a set on J4K. Ditoto still had a flush draw but the 107 didn't complete it and he was eliminated.

On another table, it was a blind versus blind situation when Justin Vaysman went all in and Dominykas Karmazinas made the call in the big blind.

Justin Vaysman: KK All in
Dominykas Karmazinas: 108

It looked like a safe double-up for Vaysman, but the flop gave Karmazinas a few outs with 7J4 for a gutshot. The 9 on the turn completed the straight, the J river was just mandatory.

As both players busted in the same hand, they split the payout for the 122nd place.

Soft Bubble for Nikiforov

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Ilya Nikiforov
Ilya Nikiforov

With the tournament on the bubble, action folded to Ilya Nikiforov in the small blind, who moved all in for 190,000. In the big blind, Jeffrey Hong took some time to make a decision. After a little while in the tank, he apologised to the table, saying he really wasn't sure what to do. Ultimately, he decided to call, putting Nikiforov at risk.

Ilya Nikiforov: A4 All in
Jeffrey Hong: K4

It wasn't what Hong was hoping to see, as he didn't even have two live cards.

The deck took care of that for him, though, as the flop came down 3K7, moving him into the lead.

The 8 turn and 7 river couldn't provide a way back for Nikiforov, who vacated his seat and headed to the exit.

Death at Sea for Kolonias

Level 19 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Alexandros Kolonias open-shoved from early position for 86,000. Only Aleksandr Shevlyakov in the hijack gave him action.

Alexandros Kolonias: J10 All in
Aleksandr Shevlyakov: AK

Kolonias' clubs were covered, and the A998A runout gave him only small hope on the turn, and nothing more. He was eliminated by the boat of Shevlyakov. Despite his sizeable stack, it was his first bounty of the day.

Minko Sends Norris Home

Level 19 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Vladimir Minko min-raised from middle position with only Carl Norris calling from the small blind.

Norris check-called a bet of 13,000 from Minko on the A39 flop.

The turn came the 9 and both players checked to see the 8 appear on the river. Norris jammed for around 50,000, which Minko snap-called.

Norris showed 44 for a pair of fours and lost the pot to Minko's Q9 for trips.

Chong Hits Two Pair and Sends Winter Packing

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Sean Winter
Sean Winter

Davidi Kitai opened from under the gun, and Victor Chong in middle position made the call. Action folded to Sean Winter in the small blind, who decided it was time to go all in and he shoved his stack in the middle for around 173,000. Kitai got out of the way and Chong made the call.

Sean Winter: AQ
Victor Chong: AJ

Winter was slightly ahead even as the flop ran out KA9, giving both players top pair. But the tables were turned at the turn when it showed J for two pair for Chong. The 6 didn't change the outcome, sending Winter to the rail, and Chong added to his stack, plus collected the bounty.

Cikinas Flushes Harwood Away

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Loni Hui was forced all in from the small blind, with just 3,000 chips to her name. Robert Cowen flatted from late position, before Matas Cikinas then shoved, bounty hunting, from the cutoff. Everyone else folded, and Cikinas was in good shape to pick up his first bounty of the day.

Loni Hui: 85 All in
Matas Cikinas: K10

Despite not needing to improve, Cikinas rivered a flush on 72Q2J to send Harwood home.

Thyzel Doubles; Burns Eliminated

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Yuya Arito raised to 25,000 from early position. Kahle Burns threw in his final 3,000 in chips to go all-in and be at risk. Chad Thyzel decided to also go all-in, but for substantially more, as he jammed for 163,000. Yuya Arito called and had both covered as the cards went on their backs.

Kahle Burns: Q8All in
Chad Thyzel: QQ
Yuya Arito: J10

Thyzel led the pack at the start, and the 34A flop did nothing material to change that. The K turn gave Arito a straight draw, but the 4 river averted any danger for Thyzel's queens to lock up the double-up and the knockout.

Alex Kulev:A8All in
Brian Rast:88

Kulev needed to find an ace to stay alive, but the board ran out 10Q1055, offering no help. Rast’s pocket eights held strong, earning him another bounty and a boost to his growing stack.
