Nível 16 : 1,500/3,000, 4,500 ante

Bjorn Geissert started building the pot that was to be Melissa Saphier's last with an initial raise to 7,000. Saphier called and her neighbour Yuval Bronshtein upped it to 27,000. Geissert let his hand go but Saphier made the call. Both players drew one. Bronshtein quickly moved all in when Saphier checked (he easily covered her stack). She called and was shown a hand that couldn't be beaten (only tied) - the wheel . She flashed her hand only briefly; there was a jack in it.

Richard Thomas moved all in under the gun for 19,100. Jameson Painter called (115,000 behind), then button Ajay Chabra moved all-in, putting Painter to the question for his tournament life. Painter folded. Thomas now went through the ringer, rubbing his eyes, shaking his head and considering his draw decision.

"God, dude. It's only the second time I've ever played this game. You wouldn't do that with a jack. Nine six?" He looked skywards then drew one.

Chabra tabled and Thomas . He too made a nine with his fifth card, but Chabra's was better.
