Nível 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Aleksandr Chernikov raised to 60,000 from under the gun and Zhewen Hu shoved the button for 255,000. Zhen Chen called in the big blind, and Chernikov called.

They went to a flop of 10♣6♦A♦ where Chen led out for 100,000, and Chernikov folded.

Zhewen Hu: A♣9♠ All in
Zhen Chen: A♥J♠

Chen had his countrymate on the ropes and it was all over by the time the J♦ fell on the turn, as Hu was drawing dead. A meaningless 4♠ completed the board, and Hu made his way to the exit just shy of the final table.

Nível 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Eyal Eshkar shoved for 190,000 from under the gun and Angelos Michael called from the hijack.

Eyal Eshkar: Q♦10♠ All in
Angelos Michael: A♣K♣

"Look familiar?" said one of the table to Michael. The cards and suits were exactly the same as then ones Michael used to burst the bubble just a matter of minutes ago.

This time, Michael had the other cards and used them wisely as the 3♣A♥3♦K♥7♥ runout sent Eshkar to the rail.

Nível 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Fahredin Mustafov raised from under the gun and Jeremy Saderne called from the big blind with a short stack.

On the J♣5♠A♦ flop, Saderne shoved for 70,000, and Mustafov called.

Jeremy Saderne: 7♠5♣ All in
Fahredin Mustafov: A♠9♠

Saderne had flopped a pair and gone with it, however Mustafov had the goods. No help arrived on the K♣3♠ runout, and Saderne was out in 12th.

Nível 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Angelos Michael made it 60,000 from under the gun and Dmitry Yurasov shnoved from the small blind for almost 300,000. When it got back to Michael, he ran some calculations in his mind, then called.

Dmitry Yurasov: J♥J♦ All in
Angelos Michael: Q♥J♠

Yurasov was well in the lead but Michael had been running hot, which was evident on the A♠2♣Q♦ flop. A K♥ on the turn did give both players a straight draw, but the 5♥ river was a brick, which sent Yurasov out in 13th.

Nível 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Angelos Michael shoved his big stack from the button and Razvan Belea called off from the big blind for around 700,000.

Razvan Belea: A♣K♣ All in
Angelos Michael: Q♦10♠

Belea was ahead but at risk of being the bubble boy. Michael found the dream flop of 10♦4♦5♦, which gave him a pair and a flush draw, leaving Belea drawing slim. The 2♦ turn sealed the deal, as an inconsequential K♦ river put a flush on board.

Lachezar Petkov shoved for 125,000 from under the gun and Simone Andrian was priced in to call from the big blind.

Lachezar Petkov: K♥Q♦ All in
Simone Andrian: A♠4♦

Petkov was behind and stayed there throughout the hand's entirety as the 4♥3♠3♦7♦A♥ runout sent him to the rail in 15th, which brought around hand-for-hand play.

Nível 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Walid Bou Habib had his stack of around 400,000 in the middle preflop against Angelos Michael.

Walid Bou Habib: A♦K♠ All in
Angelos Michael: J♣J♦

Habib was at risk of falling short of the money and his situation didn't improve on the 8♦7♥5♣ flop. Neither the 10♠ turn or 9♣ river river offered Habib any help, and he was eliminated.

Nível 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Felipe Ketzer opened the hijack to 40,000 and Uladzimir Zhyharau shoved from the big blind for 255,000. Ketzer called.

Uladzimir Zhyharau: A♦6♣ All in
Felipe Ketzer: A♥10♠

Zhyharau was behind and fell further into the hole after the 10♥5♦3♠ flop. Only running cards could save Zhyharau, but the 8♠ turn left him drawing a dead. A meaningless 8♦ dropped on the river, and Ketzer raked in the pot.

On the other table, Zhen Chen just eliminated Alisa Sibgatova, which means 16 remain.

Nível 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Felipe Ketzer shoved his big stack from the button covering both the blinds, and Atilla Saracoglu in the big blind used some extra time before he called for around 200,000.

Atilla Saracoglu: A♣6♦ All in
Felipe Ketzer: 5♥5♣

Saracoglu found himself in a coinflip for his tournament life and briefly felt like he had got there when the 6♣ appeared on the flop, however it was followed by 5♦K♥, which gave Ketzer a set. The 4♣ turn and 7♣ river didn't change anything, and Saracoglu hit the rail.
