Ismael Bojang: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}

Stender had the dominated hand but the board brought {j-Spades}{3-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}, giving a pair of tens on the turn to Stender as well as the double up.

Elharar Doubles Into the Lead

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Rafi Elharar
Rafi Elharar

There are four massive stacks at the same table and Rafi Elharar has just doubled into the lead with four tables remaining.

It was a flip with a twist when Ali Amelipour flopped top pair and top kicker with the {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} only to find himself down to needing runner-runner, as Elharar held {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} for a set of queens on the {k-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{5-Hearts} flop. The {4-Hearts} turn and {6-Spades} river brought no upset.

Elharar then lost an all in with {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} against the {j-Spades}{j-Clubs} of Ofir Stender on a board of {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{j-Hearts}.

Marco Werz: {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Michal Kral: {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

Streber From Hero to Zero

Level 24 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Benjamin Streber
Benjamin Streber

Not long ago Benjamin Streber was among the big stacks well above a million but he has just been eliminated after a rough few minutes.

The first crucial hand saw him raise and call the three-bet shove of Hafthor Hlynsson in the small blind for 605,000.

Hafthor Hlynsson: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Benjamin Streber: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

The board came {6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{q-Clubs} and the Icelander spiked the queen on the river.

Streber then doubled Alexandre Viard when he raised from under the gun with {k-Hearts}{9-Hearts} and flopped top two pair only for Viard to turn the nut straight with {j-}{10-}. Streber was forced all in from the big blind after and could not mount a miracle comeback.
