The 7♦ turn and Q♦ river checked through and Law revealed A♥J♠ for ace-high. Danias had that beat with K♠5♦ for a small flush.

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Byungeun Shin raised to 60,000 from under the gun and James Minghini three-bet to 165,000 from the next seat.

As Shin was thinking, someone on the feature table rail yelled "Let's f***ing go Steven! Whooo!" in the completely silent event center. Shin called after the disruption.

Shin checked on the flop of 8♦2♥J♦ and Minghini checked back. Shin then bet 300,000 on the 4♥ turn. Minghini folded.

Frank Visser

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Fabrice Bigot put in the minimum raise to 60,000 in early position. Joey Padron called in the cutoff, and Isaac Haxton defended his big blind.

Haxton checked to Bigot on the 7♣Q♠6♥ flop, and the Frenchman continued for 90,000. Padron and Haxton both called to the 7♦ turn, which was checked around.

The Q♥ river then completed the board. Three more checks followed, and Padron's 8♥8♦ took the pot when Haxton tabled 9♣8♣ and Bigot showed down K♥9♥.

Touitou Turns a Jack to Crack Viox's Big Slick

Kai Cocklin

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Rory Monahan made it 80,000 to go from middle position with 6♥6♣ and Greg Merson three-bet to 130,000 from the cutoff with A♠Q♦. Steven Touitou then shoved 335,000 from the small blind, Chris Viox shoved 1,085,000 from the big blind, and both Monahan and Merson folded.

Steven Touitou: A♦J♦ All in
Chris Viox: A♥K♦

Touitou had run into Big Slick and didn't get any help on the 4♣7♥10♣ flop. However, the J♠ on the turn paired his jack and left him one card away from a much healthier stack. Viox was looking for a king or a queen, but couldn't find it with the 6♦ river, meaning a portion of his stack was sent over to Touitou.

"Let's f****ing go, Steven!" shouted someone from the rail.

Double Knockout for Fukao After the Break

Christian Zetzsche

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Two short stacks were all-in and at risk over on table 620 moments after the action resumed and both Oystein Kristoffersen as well as Dianlei Zhang were looked up by Yaichi Fukao.

Oystein Kristoffersen: A♣J♣ All in
Dianlei Zhang: A♥K♠
Yaichi Fukao: 8♠8♥

The pocket pair fell behind on the K♥9♦7♣ flop but gained equity with the 6♦ turn. Any eight, six or ten would now help and the 5♣ river was among those outs to secure the double elimination for Fukao.

Camp Flips Ferreira Da Silva to the Rail; Perati Makes a Big Hero Call on Angelil

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

David Salituro

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

William Camp raised to 50,000 under the gun, Diogo Ferreira Da Silva moved all in for 230,000 in middle position, and Camp called.

Diogo Ferreira Da Silva: A♣Q♠ All in
William Camp: 6♣6♦

Ferreira Da Silva was racing for his tournament life, but the 8♣9♦3♥4♥4♠ board provided no help against Camp's sixes and he was sent to the rail.

At another table, a massive pot was brewing between Muhamet Perati and Rene-Charles Angelil as nearly 1,000,000 was in the middle on a board of 7♠2♠3♦4♦9♦. Angelil then bet 850,000 from the hijack.

Perati was in middle position and tanked for nearly five minutes before calling. Angelil could only show A♠10♠ for ace-high, while Perati had A♥7♥ for a pair of sevens to win the pot.
