Sensoli checked on the 
flop to let his opponent shove. Sensoli put him at risk, calling.

stayed with Sensoli, but the river 
saved his opponent's spot in the tournament. While Sensoli lost this hand, he's still guarding about 50,000.

Three players were in contention on the 
flop with around 20,000 already in the pot.
Scott Bohlman was first to act and he bet small, making it only 3,000. Ismael Bojang thought for a moment and then called, but next to act was James Akenhead, who moved all in for 8,300 total.
Bohlman paused for about 30 seconds, and then reshoved. Bojang released his hand immediately.
James Akenhead: 
Scott Bohlman: 
Akenhead held the best hand at the moment, but Bohlman had a plethora of outs. The turn 
extended Bohlman's options to scoop the pot, giving him a flush draw. The 
river then completed Bohlman's runner-runner flush, forcing Akenhead out of his chair.

Brandon Shack-Harris had bombed the river for 15,000 and action was on Russian player Ivan Naumov.
Naumov was deep in the tank with 17,500 chips behind. Tough decision or not, another player decided he’d had enough time to make up his mind and clock was called. Naumov was given 30 seconds and, before the time hit zero, his cards hit the muck.

Approaching the second break of the day as level four draws to a close, there have now been 335 entries.
That is closing in on the 400 that this event attracted in 2016 with late registration open for another four levels, closing just before the start of Level 9.
Although no official figure has been announced, approximately 15 players have bust so far today,
All photos were taken by Jayne Furman.
Yevgeniy Timoshenko open-raised from the second position, evoking a three-bet from a player in a middle position. Timoshenko called the 4,800-bet.
The heads-up pot continued to the flop, but both players ceased fire.
The 
turn went check-check as well.
Timoshenko, however, led out 4,400 on the 
river, earning a fold from his opponent.
