Level 27 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Rob Wazwaz raised to 175,000 from the button and was called by Matthew Davenport in the big blind.

Both players checked the 2♠10♥4♠ flop and saw the 7♠ drop on the turn. Davenport now bet out for 210,000, and Wazwaz called. The river brought the 10♠, and Davenport continued the aggression and bet out for 425,000.

Wazwaz called instantly and Davenport tabled K♠K♦ for the second nut flush, "No good" exclaimed Wazwaz as he turned over his A♠9♦ for the nut flush and was pushed the healthy pot.

Level 27 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Artur Martirosian raised to 160,000 preflop from the cutoff. Michael Bernstein made the call in the big blind.

The flop hit K♣A♣2♠ and Martirosian bet 220,000. Bernestein thought about it for a minute, then raised all in.

Martirosian made the call, risking his 600,000 chips.

Artur Martirosian: A♦2♣ All in
Michael Bernstein: 6♣3♣

Martirosian was ahead with two pair, but Bernstein had a flush draw. The turn of 10♣ got him there. The 4♠ on the river was irrelevant.

Level 27 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Michael Bernstein raised from the cutoff to 160,000 and action folded to Ricardo Martinez in the small blind who three-bet all in for 1,125,000.

This sent Bernstein deep into the tank for 3-4 minutes, and the clock was called. With under ten seconds remaining, he announced a call and pushed the chips forward.

Ricardo Martinez: 2♠2♣ All in
Michael Bernstein: A♠J♦

Not the door card Martinez wanted to see on the A♣8♠Q♣ flop, and he was looking to hit a deuce to stay alive. It didn't come with the J♠ turn, and when the 9♠ peeled off on the river, it was curtains for Martinez, and he was sent to the rail in 18th spot.

Player	Chips	Progress
Michael Bernstein	2,400,000 1,095,000	1,095,000

Jerome Solomon

Level 27 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

In the first hand after returning from dinner, Laksh Singh raised to 160,000 from middle position. When the action folded to Jimmy Kébé on the button, he pushed all in for just over a million chips.

While players were considering a call, the dealer mentioned that he didn't have an all-in button.

"If I knew we didn't have a button I would not have gone all-in," Kébé joked. “Floor!”

Everyone folded.
