Frank Visser

Level 30 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Chipleader Frederic Marechal raised to 500,000 in the cutoff. Candido Cappiello then jammed all in for 4,025,000 in the small blind and was quickly called by Marechal.

Candido Cappiello: A♦9♣ All in
Frederic Marechal: A♥J♠

While the 5♦7♠4♦8♠ runout gave Cappiello some extra outs, the J♥ river paired up Marechal for the win.

He eliminated Cappiello in 17th, leaving the remaining 16 players to redraw across two tables.

Level 30 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Adrian Cazacu raised to 500,000 under the gun and Xiaohua Yang called from the cutoff.

Cazacu bet 375,000 on the Q♣10♥Q♦ flop and Yang called.

The 9♠ turn saw Cazacu check-call a bet of 500,000 from Yang.

After Cazacu checked the 10♠ river, Yang bet 1,600,000 and was met by a check-shove from Cazacu. Yang quickly folded and Cazacu dragged in the pot.

Level 30 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

On one of the first hands after the two-table redraw, Arturo Paduano raised to 550,000 in middle position and Frederik Thiemer moved all in for 6,000,000 in the cutoff. Action then folded to Andreas Krause in the big blind.

He had only taken around 30 seconds to think about the decision before Luigi Pignataro called the clock. That caused Krause to erupt.

"Is it not right to think for one minute about six million? I can't concentrate," Krause yelled at the tournament official who came over to the table.

"You take a minute every decision," Pignataro replied. The floor hadn't yet started the countdown when Krause folded, and Paduano quickly folded behind.

Player	Chips	Progress
Arturo Paduano	7,500,000 700,000	700,000

Level 30 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Gary Tatavarti limped in from middle position, after which the action folded to Iman Ghashayar in the big blind, who checked.

The K♥9♥J♥ flop was checked through, as was the K♦ turn. Ghashayar then bet for 375,000 on the 8♣ river and received a snap call.

Ghashayar played the board with his 7♣2♥ and consequently lost the pot to Tavarti's J♦9♦.

Level 30 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Christopher Campisano raised to 500,000 under the gun before Gary Tatavarti three-bet to 1,600,000 in early position. Xiaohua Yang then moved all in for 6,550,000 in the big blind and Campisano folded, while Tatavarti took around two minutes before calling. "Huge hand here, guys. Huge hand," a player at the other table yelled out as several came over to watch.

Xiaohua Yang: A♥10♥ All in
Gary Tatavarti: A♦Q♣

Tatavarti slammed down his cards when he found out he had Yang dominated. The flop, though, was 10♦4♥3♥ and Yang not only made top pair but picked up the nut flush draw. The turn was the 6♠, while the 9♥ river improved Yang to a flush and earned him the massive double up.

"Nice hand," Tatavarti said as he handed over the chips.

Level 30 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Dimitrios Anastasakis shoved from the small blind for roughly 2,000,000, and Vazha Kometiani made the call from the big blind after he saw just one of his cards.

Dimitrios Anastasakis: A♣10♣ All in
Vazha Kometiani: A♦5♥

Anastasakis had Kometiani dominated and was in the perfect spot to double up. The board ran out 3♠2♠7♦2♦8♦, which meant Anastasakis' ace-ten high stayed in front and won him the pot.

Player	Chips	Progress
Vazha Kometiani	5,600,000 2,100,000	2,100,000

Level 30 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Claudio Di Giacomo raised to 500,000 in middle position and Gary Tatavarti called in the big blind.

Di Giacomo continued for 400,000 on the A♥8♦6♣ flop and Tatavarti called. Both players then checked the 9♦ turn.

The river was the 2♠ and Tatavarti moved all in for 3,000,000. Di Giacomo pondered the decision for around two minutes before folding as players headed off on break.
