David Salituro

Level 24 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Mo Xu raised to 120,000 in middle position before Andre Winkler three-bet to 260,000 in the hijack. Salih Atac four-bet to 600,000 on the button and Xu folded, but Winkler called off 350,000 more.

Andre Winkler: K♦Q♣ All in
Salih Atac: A♥K♠

Atac had Winkler dominated and took an even bigger lead when the A♠9♦3♣ flop gave him top pair. The rest of the board ran out 2♥K♥ and Atac improved to two pair to send Winkler to the rail.

Level 24 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

From the button, Axel Bayout jammed for 400,000 and Francesco Zappala made the call out of the small blind.

Axel Bayout: A♣J♠ All in
Francesco Zappala: 8♣8♠

It was a flip that Bayout needed to win to stay alive.

Bayout picked up a lot of additional outs on the Q♣10♥10♠ flop. However, the 2♣ turn and 7♠ river didn't help him, and Zappala's pocket eights held up, sending Bayout to the rail.

Level 24 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Algirdas Saveikis in the cutoff opened to 400,000 and was called by Hicham Aouraghe in the small blind.

The dealer fanned a flop of 8♥5♣2♥ and Aouraghe led out for 80,000. Saveikis had this exact amount left, but waited for almost two minutes to make the call.

Algirdas Saveikis: J♣10♣ All in
Hicham Aouraghe: K♦Q♣

Saveikis found a flush draw with the A♣ turn, but the Q♥ river didn't complete this flush and he was eliminated.

Martin Qvist: A♠2♣ All in
Rene Majed: 8♥8♠

Majed was able to avoid an ace on the 9♦10♥4♣7♣6♥ runout, as he improved to a straight to send Qvist to the rail.

Level 23 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Dorde Jovanovic moved all in for 190,000 from the small blind and Fabio Peluso called in the cutoff.

Dorde Jovanovic: 10♦10♠ All in
Fabio Peluso: A♦4♠

It turned out not to be Peluso's ace that Jovanovic needed to worry about, as the 6♣4♥4♣ flop gave Peluso trips and the lead. Jovanovic was left looking for just two outs, and no miracles arrived on the 8♠ turn or K♥ river as he was sent to the rail.
