Level 21 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Mehrzad Askari got his stack of around 20 big blinds into the middle preflop and was hoping for a coin flip according to the table chat right before he flipped over the A♥K♠.

However, that was crushed by the A♠A♦ of Angelo Lucchese and there was no escape on a board of J♠8♠7♥A♣2♥.

The cards of Joseph Floyd III were already in the muck as Emil Bise was busy rebuilding his tower of chips on a new table.

On a board of 10♥9♦5♥10♣6♣, the 8♣7♣ of Bise made a straight that was good for the knockout.

Hilberts Eliminated by Kunicnikov

Christian Zetzsche

Level 20 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

The floor was called over as apparently there had been some confusion what card had been the burn and what the flop. By then, Thijs Hilberts had already been all-in and at risk against Artur Kunicnikov, the latter of which was in the big blind.

Hilberts' A♥K♣ was up against the K♠5♥ of his table neighbour and he was behind on a board of 8♠5♠3♦4♦Q♠. It was confirmed that the K♦ had been exposed as part of the flop, giving Hilberts the top pair.

It was decided to reshuffle a four-card flop which brought the king and five, sending Hilberts to the payout desk.
