Kirk Adams Eliminated in 11th Place ($24,290)

Level 26 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Kirk Adams
Kirk Adams

Artur Rudziankov raised to 90,000 first to act, and Kirk Adams moved all in for what appeared to be 800,000 from one seat over. Once the action was back on Rudziankov, the Czech instantly called, and that was a bad sign for Adams.

Kirk Adams: {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}
Artur Rudziankov: {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}

Adams had cracked aces before to stay in contention, but this time, no miracle happened on a board of {J-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{9-Clubs}. Adams was eliminated in 11th place for $24,290, and the 10 remaining players combined to one table and moved to the secondary feature table.

Value for Prats

Level 26 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Picking up the action on the heads-up turn of a {K-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{2-Spades}{10-Diamonds} board, Lee Watkinson checked from under the gun and called a small bet from Mario Prats in the cutoff. Watkinson checked the {5-Hearts} river, and Prats bet 300,000. After some consideration, Watkinson called and mucked once Prats flashed {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds} for a pair of aces.

Asi Moshe Eliminated in 12th Place ($24,290)

Level 26 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Asi Moshe
Asi Moshe

For the second hand in a row, Artur Rudziankov raised it up to 90,000. This time, it was from the cutoff, and he found a caller in Asi Moshe from the big blind.

The flop of {10-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} went check-check, and the {7-Diamonds} appeared on the turn. Moshe moved all in for his last 225,000, and Rudziankov quickly called.

Asi Moshe: {8-Clubs}{6-Clubs}
Artur Rudziankov: {A-Clubs}{7-Clubs}

The {4-Spades} on the river was a blank, and Moshe was eliminated in 12th place for $24,290. After the next elimination, the field will combine to the unofficial ten-handed final table, and the event is scheduled to go on dinner break at the end of the current level.

Mario Prats Doubles Up

Level 26 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Martin Kabrhel opened the action, and Mario Prats moved all in from the small blind for 330,000. Kabrhel had him covered and said he was happy with any result, and he called.

Mario Prats: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Martin Kabrhel: {q-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}

“He has three outs,” Kabrhel said.

The board ran out {a-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}.

“He hit it!” Kabrhel told the rail before claiming he had a flush (or very near one, anyway).

Prats doubled up through Kabrhel.

A Grind for Rudziankov

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

Artur Rudziankov lost a bigger pot against Timothy Miles when the latter got value with {A-Clubs}{A-Spades} on a {9-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{6-Hearts} board. Right after, he raised to 65,000 from under the gun. John Esposito called in the big blind but quickly check-folded the {A-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{3-Hearts} flop. Rudziankov took some chips back but remains below one million.

Queens Are Good for Miles and Esposito

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

Hand 1

John Esposito raised to 75,000 first to act, and Asi Moshe moved all in from the small blind. Timothy Miles, in the big blind, peeked at his cards and called all in for less, and Esposito folded with the words, "I guess my hand is no good."

Timothy Miles: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}
Asi Moshe: {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}

Miles was miles ahead and had little to fear, and the board ran out {J-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{Q-Hearts} to give him a double-up for 640,000 with a set.

Hand 2

Arman Zolnoorian raised to 65,000, and Esposito just called in the big blind. Esposito checked and subsequently called a bet worth 90,000 on the {A-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} flop before the {A-Hearts} turn was checked through. After the {2-Spades} river, Esposito bet 100,000, and Zolnoorian called after some consideration. Esposito showed {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs}, and that was good enough to win the pot.

Watkinson Doubles Through Phan Again

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante
Lee Watkinson
Lee Watkinson

John Phan opened from under the gun, and Martin Kabrhel called from the small blind. Lee Watkinson then moved all in from the big blind. Kabrhel thought for some time, and the clock was called. The seconds ticked down, and he folded.

Lee Watkinson: {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}
John Phan: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}

The board ran out {q-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{2-Clubs}. Phan may have hit his king, but Watkinson made a flush.
