Level 29 : 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Suresh Doshi raised to 400,000 from early position, before Peter Walsworth moved all in from the small blind for 1,995,000. The action folded back to Doshi, who made the call.

Peter Walsworth: K♣Q♣ All in
Suresh Doshi: 10♥10♣

The flop came out 3♥A♦4♣, retaining Doshi's lead. However, the turn K♥ moved Walsworth ahead, and the river 9♠ kept it that way.

Walsworth's stack amount was confirmed before Doshi departed with nearly half of his stack.

Cao Milks Cho for a Boost

Level 29 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Jaegeol Cho in cutoff started the action with a 240,000 raise and got a three-bet from small blind Jimmy Young to 600,000. Big blind Yuanzhi Cao four-bet shove all-in for 670,000.

While Cho was considering his options and counting his chips, Young already separated the 70,000 he needed to call Cao's all-in. He was so surprised that Cho announced all-in for 1,850,000 that he exclaimed "M****rf****r!"

Young went into the tank so long that clock had to be called. Clock ran out with his hand considered dead leaving the other two players to head to showdown.

Yuanzhi Cao: 10♣10♦ All in
Jaegeol Cho: A♣J♣

The board ran 3♦4♠6♣5♥Q♥ with neither an ace or jack in sight. After watching the hand for 6 minutes, the table wondered if Young could have eliminated Cao by calling. Cao was quite happy Young didn't call as the dealer pushed the huge pot towards his direction.

Lambe's Sevens Help Kambov to the Rail

Level 29 : 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Viktor Kambov got his final 465,000 into the middle preflop with Dylan Lambe trying to send him to the cashier's desk.

Viktor Kambov: A♥K♠ All in
Dylan Lambe: 7♣7♦

Kambov found himself in a classic flip for his tournament life. The 8♦8♠10♦ flop gave Kambov some counterfeit outs, but Lambe was still in the lead. Kambov picked up some straight outs when the J♣ rolled off on the turn, but the 6♠ river was a brick, and all of Kambov's stack headed over to Lambe.

Ido Aboudi: 9♠9♥ All in
Suresh Doshi: A♠A♣

The board came out with Q♥4♦K♦Q♦J♦, and the higher two pair for Doshi would prevail.

Rania Nasreddine pushed her last 85,000 across the line from early position and Jeff Madsen jammed over the top from the next seat. After the rest of the table folded, the cards were flipped over.

Rania Nasreddine: 9♦3♦ All in
Jeff Madsen: Q♠10♠

Nasreddine commented that diamonds are a girl's best friend, so she was confident in her chances with five cards to come.

However, the dealer delivered a board of K♥4♣4♠4♦7♦, which helped neither player, and Madsen's queen-high won the pot. Madsen pulled in the pot, and Nasreddine was out.

Rania Nasreddine open-shoved all-in on the button for around 2,000,000 and got called by Douglas Lopes on the big blind, who was covered.

Douglas Lopes: Q♥Q♦ All in
Rania Nasreddine: 10♦10♥

Nasreddine groaned when she saw what she was up against and kept calling for a ten to drop on the board of 6♥8♣8♥4♠4♥. With no ten falling on the board, most of Nasreddine's chips went to Lopes leaving her crippled with less than a big blind.

Justin Grider: A♥5♣ All in
Barry Hutter: J♥J♣

The board was 10♦2♠8♥K♠3♣ and a pair of jacks for Hutter received the elimination.

In With the Worst, Out With the Best

Level 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Donald Casho moved all in from the hijack for 275,000, and after receiving a count of the bet, Chad Lipton moved all in too from the button. No other players called, and as Liptop had the bigger chip count, it was Casho at risk.

Donald Casho: K♥Q♠ All in
Chad Lipton: K♦8♦

It was bad news for Casho, as the dealer spread an all diamond 4♦10♦Q♦ flop, leaving him drawing extremely slim.

The turn A♥ wrapped it up for Lipton, before the 9♥ completed the board, sending Casho to the rail.
