Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

James Romero raised and picked up four callers including Sidney Hasson in the blinds. Hasson shoved the flop for 30,000 into a pot of 50,000 and Romero called. After a fold, Rania Nasreddine then shoved over the top and Romero was the only caller.

Hasson:
Nasreddine:
Romero:

The on the turn improved nasreddine to a straight, but it was no good as Romero had both opponents drawing dead with a full house. Hasson even made a meaningless flush with the river before heading to the payout desk. There are less than 90 players remaining and they will head into the dinner break at the end of this level.

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

David Niedringhaus moved all in for his last 26,000 and Marvin Karlins called from the small blind with a stack of around 100,000 in total. Jonathan Abdellatif moved all in out of the big blind and Karlins called.

Niedringhaus:
Karlins:
Abdellatif:

The flop fell and Niedringhaus was excited about having a straight flush draw. Abdellatif replied, "We all have," and Niedringhaus indeed had just one out for the straight flush or running outs for a full house to avoid elimination. The turn improved Abdellatif to the best hand and the river was of no help for either player at risk.
