Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

William Summerfield opened to 120,000, which Grace Walsh, on the button, called. Katherene Lundgren saw an opportunity and elected to move all in for 295,000 from the small blind.

Summerfield called before Walsh folded, and the players turned their cards over.

Katherene Lundgren: A♣3♣ All in
William Summerfield: 7♠7♥

The flop shot Lundgren into the lead, coming down A♠8♦K♣, leaving Summerfield with just two outs.

The turn A♥ only served to improve Lundgren to trips, and the river 2♥ secured her the pot.

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Action started with David Fhima moving all in for 960,000 from under the gun. Stephen Brown made the call from the button, before the small blind, Paul Crumpbrooks, elected to move all in too, for 1,220,000.

Brown made the call, and the three players revealed their cards.

David Fhima: A♥J♠ All in
Paul Crumpbrooks: A♠K♣ All in
Stephen Brown: A♣Q♥

All three players held an ace, meaning it was their kickers that would come into play.

Crumpbrooks' king kicker kept him in the lead on the 4♣7♣9♦5♦7♦ runout, giving him the near triple up.

Brown was left with just 70,000 after the encounter, and Fhima was sent to the rail.

Paul Crumpbrooks	3,580,000 2,985,000	2,985,000
Stephen Brown	70,000 1,500,000	1,500,000

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Leonard Foley raised to 160,000 from under the gun, Arkadiusz Rusak then went all in and was at risk for 590,000. The rest of the table folded, and Foley quickly called with the best hand in poker.

Arkadiusz Rusak: J♠J♦ All in
Leonard Foley: A♠A♣

Things weren't looking good for Rusak as the dealer placed a 8♦3♠7♥6♦ board on the table. But the J♥ was one of the two cards Rusak needed to remain in Event #75, and he will look to keep things rolling as his chip stack grows.
