Level 28 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Yehonatan Behor moved all in for 2,700,000 in early position and Oleh Okhotskyi called on the button.

Yehonatan Behor: A♥K♥ All in
Oleh Okhotskyi: 9♥9♦

Behor needed to improve against Okhotskyi's nines but didn't connect with the 10♠6♦2♥ flop. The 10♥ turn gave him a flush draw to go with his overcards, but Behor missed the 3♣ river and was sent to the rail in eighth place.

Level 27 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Zdenek Zizka raised from middle position and Daniel Knuth shoved 1,750,000 in the big blind. Zizka called.

Daniel Knuth: A♦10♠ All in
Zdenek Zizka: J♦10♦

Knuth was in a dominating position, but needed to fade a few more outs on the 8♦4♣7♣ flop as Zizka picked up a gutshot. An 8♠ on the turn changed nothing, and both paired their ten on the 10♥ river, but Knuth had a better kicker and doubled up.

Level 27 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Zdenek Zizka raised to 400,000 in the cutoff before Yehonatan Behor moved all in for 1,600,000 in the big blind with A♦4♠. Zizka folded Q♥3♣.

Behor shoved again the next hand from the small blind with J♣4♣, and Ratmir Kesidis gave up his big blind.

Zizka then opened to 400,000 in middle position, Kesidis shoved for 925,000 in the small blind, and Zizka called.

Ratmir Kesidis: 2♦2♣ All in
Zdenek Zizka: 7♦7♣

Both players showed down pocket pairs, but Zizka had Kesidis crushed with his sevens. The board ran out K♠J♣3♣8♥8♦ and Kesidis became the first casualty of the final table.

Level 27 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Giuliano Bendinelli raised from under the gun with A♠10♥ to 400,000 and Silviu Baltateanu called with K♠10♠ from middle position.

A flop of 6♣2♠A♦ hit the table and Bendinelli continued with a bet of 400,000. Baltateanu decided to let his hand go.

Oleh Okhotskyi then opened the cutoff with A♥6♠ and Bendinelli looked down at K♦10♠ in the big blind, which he defended.

On the 3♣A♣8♣ flop, Bendinelli checked and then folded when Okhotskyi bet 400,000.

Silviu Baltateanu raised to 400,000 in the cutoff and Oleh Okhotskyi called in the big blind.

Both players checked the Q♣6♥5♣ flop. Baltateanu then bet 300,000 on the A♥ turn, and Okhotskyi called.

The river was the 4♦ and Baltateanu bet another 1,300,000. Okhotskyi again called and Baltateanu showed K♦7♥ for king-high, Okhotskyi turned over A♦4♣ for two pair to win the pot.

Level 27 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Yehonatan Behor opened J♥10♥ from the cutoff to 475,000 and Silviu Baltateanu three-bet to 2,100,000 with A♦10♦ from the small blind, which earned him the pot.

Zdenek Zizka then raised with A♦Q♠ to 400,000 from early position and Ioannis Chorianopoulos called with 7♣6♣ from the big blind.

They saw a flop of 2♣3♣2♥, where Chorianopoulos checked his flush draw and Zizka continued for 200,000. Chorianopoulos called to see the 9♠ fall on the turn, which he checked again.

Zizka then fired another bet into the pot, this time for 375,000, and Chorianopoulos peeled once again. An 8♥ on the river missed both players, and Chorianopoulos decided not to bluff with his seven-high. Zizka checked back and took it down with ace-high.
