Nível 14
: 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
From the cutoff seat, Benny Spindler raised to 14,000. Daniel Cates reraised all in from the small blind for 45,500. Spindler made the call with the 
, and Cates had the .
The 
flop missed Cates, as did the 
on the turn, but he did have plenty of outs going to the river with a flush draw, a straight draw, and two live over cards to make a better pair than Spindler.
Unfortunately for Cates, the 
wasn't any of the outs he was hoping for, and he was eliminated.

O'Dwyer Retakes The Lead With Force
Nível 14
: 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
We just picked up the action with a board showing 
when Steve O'Dwyer checked from the hijack to Benny Spindler on the button. The German former EPT London winner put out a bet of 32,500 and O'Dwyer made the call.
On the river the hit and O'Dwyer checked again almost right away.
Spindler went into the tank for quite some time before betting 90,000 and the action was back on O'Dwyer.
"All in," O'Dwyer announced after about 30 seconds, and immediately Spindler starte counting down the remainder of his chips.
A minute went by before Spindler folded, and O'Dwyer has now retaken the chip lead.

Cates Extremely Short After Folding a Straight
Nível 13
: 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Daniel Cates opened for 12,500 under the gun and got a call on his immediate left from Yaxi Zhu. Phanlert Sukonthachartnant came along from the big blind and the three took a flop of 
. Sukonthachartnant checked and Cates fired 16,000. Zhu made the call and Sukonthachartnant folded.
The two of them checked the on the turn and the hit the river. Cates checked again and Zhu carefully cut out 40,000 and moved them in. Cates tanked for a bit, counted out 40,000, and then started to grab some more chips. He eventually moved forward 152,000 with just under 50,000 behind. Zhu didn't waste much time shoving all in and Cates let out a big sigh before flashing 
off suit (we believe with no diamonds) and folding.
