Nível 20 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Conor Beresford raised to 80,000 in the hijack and Sam Grafton defended from the big blind. The flop came A♠6♣2♠ and Grafton check-called a bet of 55,000 from Beresford.

The turn brought the 4♣ and both players checked to the 6♥ on the river. Grafton announced a bet of 130,000 and Beresford sighed in misery.

"Alright," Beresford blurted as he dropped in the chips to call. Grafton flipped over A♥8♠ for aces and sixes. "Yeahhhh," Beresford moaned as his cards went into the muck.

Nível 20 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Sam Greenwood raised to 80,000 from the cutoff and Nacho Barbero responded with a three-bet worth over half his stack. The action folded back to Greenwood who announced ''all-in'', and Barbero quickly called to put himself at risk.

Nacho Barbero: A♥Q♦
Sam Greenwood: A♣K♥

Barbero tried to do the stand-up trick in jest, but to no avail. The board ran out an inconspicuous J♠J♥9♠5♣7♦ and Barbero was headed to the payout desk.

Julien Sitbon raised to 100,000 on the button and Maksim Vaskresenski called from the big blind. The flop came 6♦2♠2♦ and Vaskresenski open-shoved all in for 285,000. Sitbon asked for a count before dropping in some chips to call.

Maksim Vaskresenski: 8♦5♦
Julien Sitbon: A♦K♥

The turn was the 4♦ and Vaskresenski made his flush to jump out front. The 6♠ on the river changed nothing and Vaskresenski doubled up to stay alive.

Nível 19 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Sam Greenwood opened to 60,000 from middle position and received calls from Julien Sitbon on the button and Guram Andronikashvili in the big blind. The trio saw a flop of K♦2♣7♠, which they all checked.

The turn was the 4♣ and saw Andronikashvili lead for 75,000. Greenwood got out of the way, but Sitbon obliged with a call. On the 2♦ river Andronikashvili fired out another bet, worth 130,000 this time. Sitbon consequently went all in, covering Andronikashvili's 150,000 chips that he had left himself behind.

Andronikashvili used one time extension before he ultimately made the call.

Guram Andronikashvili: 4♦3♥
Julien Sitbon: 7♠7♥

Andronikashvili tried to hero call, but Sitbon had the goods with a flopped set that the river made a full house.

Paul Newey: A♠Q♦
Sam Grafton: 6♥6♦

The flop came 10♣9♠6♠ and Grafton hit a set of sixes to leave Newey drawing slim. The 5♣ on the turn sealed the deal as the 4♥ completed the board.
