Ausmus and Arends's Stacks Annihilated

Level 13 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Jeremy Ausmus
Jeremy Ausmus

Teun Mulder had made it 80,000 in early position when Jeremy Ausmus bumped it up to 200,000 in the next seat over. It folded back to Mulder, who put his neighbor at risk for 1,000,000, and Ausmus quickly called.

Jeremy Ausmus: 88 All in
Teun Mulder: AQ

Ausmus filmed as he remained ahead on the 934 flop. The Q turn was in Mulder's favor, however, and he earned the check mark on the K river to score a knockout.

On another table, Jans Arends' cards were already in the muck as he had not been able to beat Ryuta Nakai's AJ on the 6A37Q runout.

Aerts Pays $100,000 for a Single Hand

Level 13 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Pieter Aerts
Pieter Aerts

Martin Kabrhel opened on the button with a stack of T-100,000 chips, enough to cover both blinds, who sat with starting stacks. Pieter Aerts, who had just taken his seat after max-late registering during the break, called off his entire 560,000 stack from the big blind.

Pieter Aerts: A9All in
Martin Kabrhel: 85

Although Aerts was ahead pre-flop, Kabrhel immediately picked up the lead as the dealer fanned the K48 flop.

Aerts' time in the tournament was over in just a single hand after seeing the 7 turn and 7 river complete the runout, and Kabrhel added more to his towering stack.

After standing from the table Kabrhel joked "You have a free afternoon now... you are supposed to say thank you."

Manuel Fritz: A9 All in
Stephen Chidwick: A10

Chidwick flopped two pair on 5A1054, so Fritz was eliminated just before the break.

Level 12 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Daniel Rezaei
Daniel Rezaei

Daniel Rezaei open-jammed for his remaining 370,000 from the cutoff and was called and covered by Artur Martirosian in the big blind.

Daniel Rezaei: 66All in
Artur Martirosian: A7

It was a painful runout for Rezaei as he looked like he was going to hold on the 342 flop and J turn. His time came to an unfortunate end on the A river and he was the latest player to hit the rail in the $100,000 High Roller event.
