Tom Orpaz was down to just 395,000 chips and moved all in from under the gun. Marco Regonaschi was next to act and flicked in a call. The rest of the table folded and the two hands were tabled.

Tom Orpaz: 10♣9♣
Marco Regonaschi: A♠6♠

Orpaz stood up from his chair and grabbed his bag with his tournament on the line. The flop came J♥9♥3♦ and Orpaz picked up the only pair. The K♣ on the turn and the 9♦ on the river secured the double up for Orpaz.

Tom Orpaz open-raised to 100,000 from middle position and Alan Goasdoue defended his big blind. The flop fell J♥6♣8♣ and all the chips went in the middle. Goasdoue played 345,000 and was at risk.

Alan Goasdoue: A♣A♠
Tom Orpaz: K♣Q♣

Goasdoue went for the trap preflop but was in a precarious situation with his opponent having flopped a flush draw. Even more outs arrived on the K♥ turn, but the 8♠ river gave Gaosdoue the better two pair to double up.

Meanwhile Orpaz was left with only 275,000 chips, equating to five and a half big blinds in this stage of the tournament.

Tinay Aksoy opened to 80,000 in the hijack and Dan Djorno shoved all in for 680,000 in the small blind. Weiran Pu reshoved all in from the big blind and Aksoy was forced to fold.

Dan Djorno: A♠7♠
Weiran Pu: 8♥8♣

Nível 25 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

A 250,000 pot was brewing between Demosthenes Kiriopoulos and Samiyel Duzgun. The flop read 4♥4♦9♦ and Kiriopoulos checked out of the big blind to Samiyel Duzgun on the button. Duzgun bet the minimum of 40,000, which Kiriopoulos raised to 125,000. Duzgun called and the 3♥ turn was dealt.

This time, Kiriopoulos put out a bet worth 200,000 chips and again Duzgun obliged. Kiriopoulos completed the triple barrel on the Q♠ river by putting 275,000 chips in the middle. Duzgun thought for a minute before relinquishing the pot to Kiriopoulos.

This pot made Kiriopoulos tip the two million mark, while Duzgun dove back down to under a million.
