Nível 15 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Straight after the break, Jean-Noel Thorel opened to 30,000 from under the gun, but nobody called him. Smiling, he revealed A♦A♠.

On the next hand, Pablo Brito raised from middle position, and Thorel defended from the big blind.

The dealer fanned a flop of 6♦9♥5♣ that both players checked. Then on the turn K♦, Brito bet 35,000. Thorel decided to check-call.

Both players checked again on the river 3♥. Thorel showed K♥10♥ for a pair and won the pot after Brito mucked his cards.

Nível 14 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Timothy Adams opened 20,000 in the cutoff, and Hyun Kim defended the big blind.

When the J♥4♠2♠ flop hit the felt, Kim check-called a bet of 15,000.

The 4♥ hit the turn and both players checked to the 6♠ river.

Kim checked once more before Adams pushed a bet of 60,000 across the line. Kim only took a few seconds before making the call to see the bad news as Adams tabled A♠J♦. Kim mucked his hand and the dealer pushed the pot to Adams.

Nível 14 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Hyun Kim opened to 22,000 in the middle position before David Yan jammed his stack of 140,000 across the line. The action folded to Sergio Agüero in the big blind who sighed called off his remaining stack of 44,000 and Kim mucked his hand.

Sergio Agüero: Q♦3♥
David Yan: J♣J♥

Agüero had one overcard as he cheered for 'Lady Gaga' as the dealer fanned a flop of A♥J♠10♦. Yan flopped a set of jacks but Agüero was still live as he needed a gutshot straight draw. The 4♠ turn and Q♥ river were no help though, sending him out of the tournament.

Nível 14 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Jean-Noel Thorel raised 30,000 and Kayhan Mokri jammed for about 155,000 in the big blind. Thorel made the call and both hands were turned on their backs.

Kayhan Mokri: A♠J♦
Jean-Noel Thorel: 9♠9♥

It was a classic race but the K♣9♦6♦ flop left Mokri drawing nearly dead. The 5♥ turn sealed Mokri's fate and the 3♥ river was just a formality as Mokri left the table, bubbling the final table.

Nível 14 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Thomas Eychenne moved all in a first time from under the gun for 41,000 chips. He was called by Hyun Kim in the small blind and by Sergio Agüero in the big blind.

Sergio Agüero: K♦4♣
Thomas Eychenne: K♥4♦
Hyun Kim: J♠8♠

The board Q♥5♣7♦10♣A♥ didn't change anything, so Agüero and Eychenne split the pot.

On the very next hand, Kim shoved directly from the button to put pressure on the two short stacks in the blinds. Agüero hoped for a good hand but folded. In the big blind, Eychenne eventually called.

Thomas Eychenne: Q♦9♠
Hyun Kim: A♥5♦

This time, Kim hit a pair on 8♦J♣7♠A♦7♦ and won the pot, sending Eychenne to the rail.

Kayhan Mokri raised 20,000 in the cutoff and Jean-Noel Thorel, Biao Ding, and Ren Lin all made the call.

The dealer fanned a flop of 10♣8♥5♠ before Ding and Lin checked to Mokri who continued for 22,000. Thorel wasted no time putting his entire stack of about 200,000 across the line, forcing all three opponents out of the pot.
