Both checked the turn 9♦ and on the last street 10♦, Gomes took the initiative and bet 90,000 which was enough for Vanmoorsel to fold.

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

Charles Lee opened to 40,000 in hijack and got a 110,000 three-bet from Kohei Arai on the button. Lee called to see a flop.

The dealer unfurled 6♠7♠4♣. Lee check-called Arai's bet of 110,000 again. After action was passed a second time, Arai fired 250,000 keeping the pressure high.

The high pressure put Lee in a difficult situation. He was visibly struggling to make a decision, especially since he only had around 450,000 behind. Frustrated he threw his hand in the muck pile.

Arai claimed that he had pocket tens as he added the pot to his significant stack.

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

Raymond Langbraaten raised to 40,000 under the gun before Don Carrillo three-bet to 125,000 in the cutoff. Simon Levy then four-bet to 250,000 in the small blind, Langbraaten folded, while Carrillo called.

The flop came 8♦8♣6♠ and Levy continued for 200,000. Carrillo then moved all in for 525,000 and Levy instantly called.

Don Carrillo: 9♠9♣ All in
Simon Levy: A♠A♦

Carrillo flung his cards into the middle of the table and was already getting up to leave after finding out he had run into Levy's aces, but the 9♥ turn gave him a reprieve with a full house. The river was the Q♠ and Levy let out a loud sigh as he counted out the chips to pay off Carrillo.

"God, that's tilting," Levy said.

Nick Pupillo raised to 40,000 in the cutoff, after which Zarvan Tumboli three-bet all in for 360,000 in the big blind. Pupillo spent some time in the tank before he eventually called off.

Zarvan Tumboli: 10♣10♦ All in
Nick Pupillo: 7♠7♦

Tumboli's Tens faced no issue on the 9♠3♥9♦9♣4♥ runout, securing his double-up.

Carmona's Main Event Comes to an End

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

Luis Carmona made it 40,000 from the hijack, and Paul Gibbons called from the cutoff before Marc Fiorentino three-bet to 125,000 from the button. Carmona four-bet jammed for 565,000, which prompted Gibbons to move in over the top for around a million. Fiorentino agonized over the decision for quite some time before folding and showing Big Slick to some of his tablemates.

Luis Carmona: A♠Q♠ All in
Paul Gibbons: K♥K♣

Since Fiorentino had folded an ace, it looked even more likely that Gibbons' Cowboys were going to hold and eliminate Carmona. The board ran out 10♣10♦6♦5♣J♠, providing no help to Carmona, and he headed to the exit earlier than he had hoped.

Player	Chips	Progress
Paul Gibbons	1,800,000 1,285,000	1,285,000
Marc Fiorentino	1,050,000 235,000	235,000
Luis Carmona	Busted

Will Kassouf opened to 55,000 from early position and Joseph Altman three-bet shoved for 310,000 from the button. Kassouf called with a covering stack to put Altman at risk.

Joseph Altman: A♣Q♠ All in

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

Wagner Wysotchanski and David Alvarez saw a flop of K♦2♣10♠ where David Alvarez had a bet of 500,000 in front of him from early position. Wysotchanski then moved all in for 1,275,000 in the hijack, and Alvarez snap-called.

Wagner Wysotchanski: K♥K♠ All in
David Alvarez: 2♥2♠

Nearly 3,000,000 was at stake as Alvarez showed a flopped set of deuces, but Wysotchanski had top set of kings. Alvarez had just one out, and it failed to arrive on the 7♣ turn or 10♣ river as Wysotchanski earned the massive double up.

"Thank God it wasn't tens," Wysotchanski said after the hand.

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

On a pot of 180,000 and a flop of Q♦8♣7♥, Yngve Steen bet 60,000 after action was passed to him in late position. Shane Klasnimi in cutoff folded but Vytautas Semaska in the big blind called to see a turn.

Both players checked the turn 4♥. Semaska fired 35,000 on the river 7♦ and got called by Steen. Semaska's turned two pair with 8♦4♦ was counterfeited when the board paired, giving Steen the higher two pair with K♠Q♥.
