Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Mariusz Golinski opened to 55,000 from early position, and Alberti Sanaia called from the cutoff. Kazimieras Sileikis three-bet to 250,000 from the small blind, which folded out Golinksi.

"You want action?" asked Sanaia. Sileikis didn't give an answer but Sanaia called anyway.

Sileikis continued for 125,000 on the 10♥4♦3♥ flop, and after 30 seconds, Sanaia made it 425,000.

As Sileikis mulled over his options, Sanaia continued his speech play.

"You can only go all-in or fold," said Sanaia. "You cannot call."

Sileikies used two time banks, and each time his shot clock reset, Sanaia would say "time."

Sileikis, flustered, jammed for around 800,000 and was snapped off by the slightly bigger stack.

Kazimieras Sileikis: J♥J♠ All in
Alberti Sanaia: 10♣10♠

Sanaia had flopped a set and was ahead. The 9♥ turn gave Sileikis a flush draw, but the 9♠ confirmed his exit instead.

"Sorry bro," apologised Sanaia as the pair shared a fist bump.

As the victor scooped in the pot, he was very thankful to the dealer.

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Nearly 1,000,000 was already in the middle as Krasimir Yankov and Patrik Zidek went to the river on a board of J♣A♥5♣3♠2♥.

According to Zidek, Yankov bet 50,000 on the flop from the hijack and he raised to 155,000 on the button. Zidek then bet 275,000 on the turn and Yankov called once more.

Zidek moved all in on the river and Yankov, with around 450,000 remaining, burned through several time banks until he called. Zidek turned over 5♥5♦ for a set and Yankov tossed A♣10♣ into the muck before making his exit.

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Rachid El Yaacoubi opened to 50,000 from the hijack and Armin Aghaie three-bet to 225,000 from the small blind. El Yaacoubi made the call.

The flop came J♣8♦5♥ and El Yaacoubi called a 150,000 continuation bet from Aghaie.

Aghaie moved all in for 610,000 on the 8♣ turn and was once again called by El Yaacoubi who held a covering stack.

Armin Aghaie: A♣Q♠ All in
Rachid El Yaacoubi: A♦J♦

Aghaie was drawing to only three outs and couldn't find a queen on the 7♣ river, resulting in his elimination while El Yaacoubi took down another sizable pot.

Boris Angelov raised to 50,000 under the gun and Andrea Ricci three-bet to 150,000 in early position. Angelov then four-bet to 390,000 and Ricci five-bet to 650,000. Angelov moved all in for 1,200,000 and Ricci practically beat him into the pot.

Boris Angelov: A♣K♣ All in
Andrea Ricci: A♥A♦

Angelov had run into Ricci's aces and was already drawing dead by the turn as the board ran out 7♣8♦6♠6♥9♠. The massive pot was pushed over to Ricci, while Angelov was sent crashing to the rail.

Yannick Jobin raised to 40,000 from the hijack with Luka Bojovic three-bet shoving for 250,000 from the small blind. Luka Bojovic jammed over the top with the covering stack out of the big blind and Jobin folded.

Istvan Pilhofer: A♠7♠ All in
Luka Bojovic: 10♥10♠

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Shaun Deeb was back in action after taking his stack from 35,000 to 270,000 just moments ago.

Dietrich Fast limped in from the small blind and folded when Deeb made it 70,000 from the big blind.

On the next deal, Ran Shahar raised to 45,000 out of his stack of 185,000. Deeb jammed for 290,000 from the small blind. The big blind folded and then Shahar put in the rest of his stack.

Ran Shahar: K♦Q♥ All in
Shaun Deeb: A♦8♦

Deeb paired up on the A♥5♥2♦ flop to remain ahead. Shahar picked up a flush draw on the 9♥ turn, but the A♣ river gave Deeb trips and moved him above the 500,000 mark.
