Cary Katz moved all in from middle position for about 1,400,000 and action folded to Alex Foxen, on the button, who went deep into the tank.

"It's a tradition for you to bust me," muttered Katz, and a few seconds later Foxen called.

Alex Foxen: {a-Spades}{8-Spades}

The flop came {8-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} giving Foxen a pair of eights. The {a-Clubs} turn and {8-Diamonds} river completed the board and Foxen took down the pot with eights full of aces, eliminating Katz in 13th place for €37,275.

Level 20 : 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Christopher Frank: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}
Kahle Burns: {j-Clubs}{8-Clubs}

The flop came {5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{6-Clubs} which gave Burns some runner-runner outs but the {k-Hearts} on the turn meant Frank has secured the double-up already. The river completed the board with the {7-Diamonds} as a formality.

Level 20 : 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Hossein Ensan: {a-Hearts}{8-Hearts}
Kahle Burns: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
