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

Daniel Yoshiba opened to 200,000 under the gun and with only around 80,000 behind, Edgaras Kausinis shoved all-in. When action folded to the big blind, Justin Shiao called, creating a side pot of 240,000

The dealer flopped A♦3♥K♦ and Yoshiba and Shiao checked all through the turn 3♠ and river J♠.

Shiao showed 8♣5♣ while Yoshiba tabled 7♥7♣. Kausinis got on his feet ready to leave and threw his hand towards the dealer face up showing Qx7x.

The hand was picked up with the board reading J♥4♦6♦5♦, with Edgaras Kausinis and Antonio Subire in a blind-on-blind heads-up, and Subire had the shorter stack.

Antonio Subire: 9♦7♦All in
Edgaras Kausinis: A♥A♣

Kausinis got the sobering news that Subire had turned a flush to crack his aces and do major damage to his tournament hopes. The 8♠ on the river was inconsequential.

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

Roman Berson open-shoved for 1,105,000 under the gun and when action folded around to the big blind, Zixuan Liu set aside the chips for a call but mulled over things before actually pushing it in.

Roman Berson: 2♣2♥ All in
Zixuan Liu: K♦Q♦

Berson got on his feet the moment the hands were tabled. He was safe on the first street when it fell 3♠5♦6♦ but it gave Liu more outs with the flush draw. Berson faded the 6♠ turn as Liu contunued to lurk ever so close to beating his hand.

Liu pounced and took Berson's lead away when the K♠ fell on the river, sending him out to claim his cashout prize.

Level 26 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Daniel Yoshiba raised to 120,000 from early position. The action folded to Satnam Sandhu in the small blind, who three-bet all in for 1,870,000 chips.

Justin Shiao, seated to Sandhu's immediate left in the big blind, thought about it for a second before four-betting all in as well.

Yoshiba let his hand go.

Satnam Sandhu: A♦K♣All in
Justin Shiao: Q♣Q♠

Sandhu got nothing he needed in the 3♣3♥J♠3♠7♣, and was knocked out in 25th place.

Level 26 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

After several hands where Satnam Sandhu had raised and folded due to being three-bet, this time he raised from early position to 125,000; Daniel Yoshiba called from the hijack, and Anastasios Pavlou three-bet to 325,000. Both Sandhu and Yoshiba called.

The flop was A♥5♠9♥ and Sandhu moved all in for 865,000. Yoshiba asked for a count and folded, and Pavlou folded.

Sandhu showed the 10♦.

In early position, Tyler Phillips opened to 120,000 and cutoff Don Bobeda called to see a flop.

The dealer flopped 2♣2♠5♥ and both players checked.

On the turn 7♠, Phillips resumed action with a 135,000 bet. Bobeda continued to tag along.

Phillips kept the pressure on the 4♦ river with a 340,000 which was enough to shake Bobeda off the hand.

Takayuki Akamatsu moved all in for 800,000 from middle position. Bruce Diamond raised all in over the top from the cutoff. The button and blinds folded.

Takayuki Akamatsu: A♣9♦All in
Bruce Diamond: A♠J♣

Akamatsu needed help to survive. He eventually got it in a runout K♥6♠6♣Q♥6♦ that allowed his ace to match Diamond's with three sixes and a king on the board for the split pot.

Level 26 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Dennis Hotz in the small blind shoved all-in for 505,000 and Zixuan Liu in the big blind called instantly.

Dennis Hotz: 6♥6♣ All in
Zixuan Liu: A♥10♥

Despite catching a set, Hotz was visibly nervous when the flop dropped 4♠6♦2♥. The dealer peeled a 10♠ which gave Liu a pair but was still nowhere near Hotz lead. Hotz let out a big sigh of relief when the Q♠ river secured his double up.
