Tim Baker

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

On a flop of 6♠3♣6♦ and with around 300,000 in the pot, Sascha Wilhelm bet 85,000 from the small blind and was met by a raise to 200,000 from Konstantin Razinkov on the button. Wilhelm called.

Wilhelm checked the J♥ turn, and Razinkov fired a bet of 250,000. Again, Wilhelm called.

A K♥ completed the board, and Wilhelm checked. Razinkov jammed, and Wilhelm called off his stack of 420,000.

Razinkov showed J♠8♦7x3x for a pair of jacks to go with the pair of sixes on the board, and lost the pot to Wilhelm's J♣9♦7♦6♣ for a boat (sixes full of jacks).

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Sharon Ben David was a larger stack for an extended period, but that has changed following a clash with Blaz Zivko.

On a board of 8♠5♦3♠4♦J♠, the A♠K♠10♦9♦ of Zivko had the best of it with the nut flush versus K♦Q♠10♠8♣ to leave Ben David in the danger zone.

Filippo Ragone made it 50,000 from the hijack and Dimitrios Gkatzas three-bet to 160,000 out of the big blind. Ragone called to see a flop.

Gkatzas jammed for 120,000 upon seeing the 6♣Q♥8♦ flop, and Ragone called.

Dimitrios Gkatzas: A♣K♥J♣5♠ All in
Filippo Ragone: A♥Q♠J♦9♠

Ragone had taken the lead by pairing his queen on the flop. The remainder of the board came 4♥7♥, and Gkatzas headed to the cashier's desk to collect his payout.

Massimiliano Zanasi, Volodymyr Kokoulin, and Quirin Zech were seen exiting the tournament area and have been eliminated.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Georgios Koliofotis raised to 40,000 and was called by Rifat Palevic, Ersin Kanik and Alexander Hepting. On the J♥7♥3♦ flop, it checked to Koliofotis and he bet 80,000. Only Palevic called to see the 3♠ on the turn with Koliofotis pushing all-in.

Palevic shook his head, picked the turn card and turned it back over before folding his Q♠J♦10♣9♦ face-up.

"I can show you my insurance," Koliofotis said and Palevic asked "you have hearts".

Koliofotis flashed the J♠10♥9♥ and then collected the pot.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Fabio Stange limped in and so did Salih Atac and Christoph Hillinger. Volodymyr Kokoulin then raised the pot in the big blind and Stange limp-shoved. Atac went all-in over the top for 320,000 and Kokoulin called to put two opponents at risk.

Fabio Stange: J♣10♣10♦9♠ All in
Salih Atac: K♠K♥2♦2♣ All in
Volodymyr Kokoulin: A♥Q♥J♦6♠

The Q♠3♦2♠ flop gave Atac the lead with bottom set and he improved to a full house with the Q♦ turn, leaving Stange on two outs to survive. Kokoulin still had outs to dispatch two opponents but the 5♥ river changed nothing. Stange bowed out in 36th place and Atac doubled through Kokoulin.

Player	Chips	Progress
Salih Atac	800,000 418,000	418,000

Volodymyr Kokoulin	425,000 250,000	250,000

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Grzegorz Derkowski got his last 135,000 into the middle from the button with Vitaliy Kryza, who was seated in the small blind, trying to bust him.

Grzegorz Derkowski: A♣K♦7♠5♦ All in
Vitaliy Kryza: A♠Q♠10♥4♥

Derkowski improved to top pair and a flush draw on the Q♦K♣6♦ flop. The 4♦ turn gave Derkowski a flush, while Kryza had outs to a full house. A 2♠ completed the board, and Derkowski doubled through Kryza.

Player	Chips	Progress
Vitaliy Kryza	700,000 100,000	100,000

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Picking up the action on the A♦J♥4♥ flop, Tobias Peters in the small blind check-raised a bet by Stanislav Koleno and then called the all-in of the Slovakian.

Stanislav Koleno: K♥Q♣5♥2♣ All in
Tobias Peters: A♥J♣7♦2♥

It was a cooler of sorts with the broadway and wheel draw along with the king-high flush draw of Koleno against top two pair and the ace-high flush draw of Peters. Nothing changed with the 9♠ turn and the 3♥ river completed the flush.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Three ways to a 3♦Q♣4♦ flop, where Konstantin Razinkov checked from the small blind and Sascha Wilhelm knuckled the table out of the big blind. Pablo Heredia bet 45,000 from under the gun, and was met by a check-raise to 125,000 by Razinkov. Wilhelm folded, but Heredia jammed for 310,000. Razinkov called.

Pablo Heredia: Q♥Q♠10♦9♦ All in
Konstantin Razinkov: A♦Q♦10♣6♠
