Nível 13 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Sergi "srxakgirona" Reixach raised to 17,600 and "fichtner3000" was the only caller from the hijack. The K♥Q♣5♦ flop saw Reixach check and "fichtner3000" put out a bet of 24,000 in response. Reixach then raised to 72,000 and "fichtner3000" called.

On the 8♥ turn, Reixach continued betting, this time for 130,960. "fichtner3000" responded with a minimum raise to 261,920 before Reixach put in his entire stack of 392,103, which "fichtner3000" called.

Sergi "srxakgirona" Reixach: A♣K♣
"fichtner3000": K♠Q♠

Nível 10 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 625 ante

Felipe "ketzerfelipe" Ketzer started off with a raise to 10,000 from under the gun. Alejandro "[Papo]AR" Lococo then three-bet to 32,500 from the cutoff before Aliaksei "ale6ka" Boika came in with a cold four-bet to 67,500 from the button.

Ketzer folded, but Lococo clicked it back to 105,000 before Boika finally six-bet jammed for 255,910. Lococo made the call with the covering stack and the two were off to the races.

Aliaksei "ale6ka" Boika: J♠J♦
Alejandro "[Papo]AR" Lococo: A♦K♦

Parker "tonkaaaa" Talbot: 10♠10♦
Thiago "KKremate" Crema: K♥K♦

It was a bad situation for Talbot, which got even worse when Crema flopped a set on 3♦K♠9♥. The 9♣ turn left the PokerStars Ambassador with no outs, and he could start deciding whether to fire a reentry when the 8♠ river completed the board.

Grafton Like a Fish in the Water on His Second Bullet

Nível 9 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Sam "SamSquid" Grafton had already more than doubled his starting stack on his second bullet when raised to 8,800 from under the gun. Christoph "26071985" Vogelsang sat next to him and made the call before Connor "blanconegro" Drinan three-bet all-in for 114,198 from the big blind.

Grafton made the call and Vogelsang followed suit.

A flop of A♥3♠Q♠ was put on the virtual felt, and Grafton put out a relatively tiny bet of 36,000 chips, which was enough to let Vogelsang lay his hand down and take the pot to a heads-up showdown.

Connor "blanconegro" Drinan: 10♠10♣
Sam "SamSquid" Grafton: K♠K♥

Grafton had a massive lead with his kings, and they would remain the best cards on the 2♣6♠ runout. Drinan was forced to leave the table while Grafton surged to the top ranks of the leaderboard.

Sam "SamSquid" Grafton	843,312 701,113	701,113

Nível 9 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

In the final hand of the previous level, Andre "PTFisherman23" Marques raised to 7,350 from under the gun and faced a three-bet from Samuel "€urop€an" Vousden in the hijack. The amount was 24,500 chips and Marques made the call.

The flop fanned out 5♥6♦10♦ and Marques proceeded to check-call a 24,500 bet from Vousden. Vousden then upped the ante on the 2♥ turn to 105,000, close to a pot-sized bet. Marques opted to check-call again and the 2♠ river completed the board.

Marques checked for the third time and Vousden went all-in for 290,461. Marques dipped into his time bank, but eventually made the call, creating a pot of almost 900,000 chips.

Vousden showed K♣10♣ for two pair, but Marques' J♥J♦ narrowly beat it, resulting in Vousden's elimination and Marques securing the chip lead by a significant margin.
