Nível 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Uladzimir Zhyharau was seen vacating his seat and his chips went in the direction of Chakib M'hiri after the two moved all-in on a flop of A♦J♥10♣.

Uladzimir Zhyharau: J♣10♠ All in
Chakib M'hiri: A♣A♠

M'hiri had flopped top set and left the two pair of Zhyharua in dire need of a miracle. However, no such miracle occured as the Q♦5♠ runout sent Zhyharau to the rail.

Nível 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

There were already over 30,000 chips in the pot on a flop of 4♥Q♣J♥ when Maxime Chilaud had 27,000 chips out in front of him and Alisa Sibgatova shoved for around 136,000. When the action got back to Chilaud, he thought for some time before he tossed in a chip to make the call.

Alisa Sibgatova: Q♠Q♥ All in
Maxime Chilaud: A♥2♥

Sibgatova was ahead with her flopped set, but had to dodge hearts as Chilaud had the nut flush draw. The turn was red, but the 9♦ wasn't the right suit for Chilaud, which left him with one more chance to send Sibgatova out.

When the 2♣ hit the river, Sibgatova breathed a huge sigh of relief as her set held up, and she was pushed the pot.

Nível 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Danielle Noja had his stack of around 50,000 in the middle preflop with Uladzimir Zhyharau looking to score an elimination.

Danielle Noja: A♣Q♥ All in
Uladzimir Zhyharau: A♠10♠

Noja was in front and the runout of 7♠6♥3♥4♦3♠ brought no surprises, which meant the two players effectively swapped stacks.

Nível 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Aylar Lie shoved from the cutoff for a little under 20,000 and Razvan Belea, after careful consideration, made the call out of the big blind.

Aylar Lie: A♦Q♦ All in
Razvan Belea: A♥3♦

Lie was in the lead and stayed there after the A♣J♣4♦ flop, despite both players flopping top pair. Belea's best hope was a chop on the J♠ turn, however the 7♥ river was no help, and Lie doubled up.

Pora Finds a Three-Outer Against M'hiri

Nível 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Dumitru Pora had his entire stack of around 85,000 in the middle preflop, but was in a dominated position to the hand of Chakib M'hiri.

Dumitru Pora: A♣Q♥ All in
Chakib M'hiri: A♠K♣

M'hiri still had around 55,000 chips behind so wasn't in danger, but would certainly like to hold as the pot was worth around 175,000. Unfortunately for M'hiri, the Q♦5♠4♥ contained a queen, which turned the tables in Pora's favor.

A 4♣ on the turn changed nothing, and neither did the 5♥ river, which meant Pora doubled up, much to the annoyance of M'hiri.

Nível 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

There were already around 75,000 chips in the pot on a full board of 2♦Q♦7♣K♥5♥ when Andrei Spataru checked it over to Andrej Tekel, who was deciding how to proceed. After a long time thinking, Tekel finally put out a bet of 16,000, just as a player at the table called the clock.

Spataru didn't need to wait so long to make a decision, and almost immediately called. Tekel then flipped A♠K♦ for top pair, and Spataru mucked.

"What took you so long?" said one of the table.

"Sorry, next time I will try to be faster," replied Tekel.
