Zajdner Shoves Into Kanakopoulos

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

Mark Zajdner opened to 45,000 from under the gun and Vuong Do made the call in middle position. It folded to Orestis Kanakopoulos in the big blind who came along as well.

The flop fanned out {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} and Kanakopoulos checked to Zajdner who continued for 35,000, which only Kanakopoulos made the call. On the {q-Diamonds} turn Kanakopoulos checked again and Zajdner sized to 135,000. Kanakopoulos took a moment before tossing in the chips for a call.

The {q-Spades} completed the board and Kanakopoulos elected to lead out for a small size of 50,000. Zajdner announced all in and tossed in a single chip. Kanakopoulos had headphones on and didn't realize he was faced with an all-in bet from Zajdner. Kanakopoulos opened his hand of {j-Spades}{9-Clubs} before knowing that it was roughly 500,000 more to call.

After the confusion, Kanakopoulos decided on a fold and the pot was shipped to Zajdner.

Yifrach Disposes of Lee in Blind vs Blind

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

The action folded around to Gal Yifrach and James Lee in the blinds and the two players got all of their chips in the middle with Lee being the player at risk for around 20 big blinds.

James Lee: {j-}{j-}
Gal Yifrach: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}

It was a coin flip and Yifrach took the lead on the {k-Spades}{q-Clubs}{6-Clubs} flop. Lee was down to just two outs and wasn't able to catch up on the turn or river as he headed to the payout desk.

Cliff Ziff
Cliff Ziff

Mark Seif and Cliff Ziff were heads-up in a pot with around 500,000 in the middle. A completed board of {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{6-Spades}{j-Diamonds} was spread across the felt and Seif made a pot-sized bet of 500,000 on the river.

Ziff jammed all in for 1,785,000 and Seif wasted little time calling, making it the pot of the tournament thus far. Ziff turned over {j-Spades}{j-Hearts} for a full house while Seif flashed his {k-}{k-} before they went into the muck.

After the hand, Seif was left with just 180,000 chips and was seen leaving the tournament area shortly after.

Zhigang Yang opened to 40,000 in the hijack and was called by Calvin Anderson on the button. Anderson Huang moved all in for 105,000 from the big blind and Yang responded with a four-bet to 225,000 which got Anderson to fold.

Anderson Huang: {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Zhigang Yang: {k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

The flop came {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{10-Diamonds} and Yang picked up a flush draw despite being in a big deficit preflop. The {a-Hearts} on the turn changed nothing but the {8-Diamonds} on the river gave Yang a flush to eliminate Huang.
