It was a classic preflop flip and Troyanovskiy pulled ahead on the 10♥6♣2♥ flop. The 9♥ turn gave Troyanovskiy a flush draw to remove some of Achille's outs but the A♣ river gave Achille top pair and marked the end of Troyanovskiy's run.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Miguel Abad bet 50,000 from middle position and was met with a 210,000 shove from Arturo Paduano in the cutoff. Abad quickly made the call.

Arturo Paduano: A♥5♥
Miguel Abad: A♣K♥

Abad was ahead, but the flop of 9♦8♥5♣ gave Paduano a pair of fives and started to sit back down in his chair. However, this proved to be bad juju as the K♦ hit the turn to give Abad back the lead. The J♠ completed the board and Paduano headed to the pay cage.

Just Desset's Chips and Sare's Bounty for Armbrust

Chris Bean

Level 20 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Ridvan Sare went all in blind for 16,000 from under the gun. John Armbrust bet 47,000 from the hijack to isolate, but Andrej Desset shoved all in and covered all the remaining players left in the hand.

Action folded to Armbrust who made the call for 369,000 to the disgust of Desset.

Ridvan Sare: A♥Q♠
John Armbrust: K♥K♣
Andrej Desset: 7♦7♣

An amazing set of circumstances for Armbrust who more than doubled up and claimed Sare's bounty. The American had a top 20 finish at the WSOP Main Event in 2007 and has been a runner-up in the Lucky 7's tournament at the 2015 WSOP. Could this be the year he claims his first WSOP Bracelet?

Andrej Desset would bust shortly afterwards.
