Nível 38 : Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 500,000 ante

Straight after the elimination of Rosen, Dorian Melchers raised to 3,800,000 from under the gun, keeping only 2,500,000 chips in his stack. In the small blind, Richard Smith just called.

But when the dealer fanned a flop of A♣7♣3♠, Smith moved directly all-in to put pressure on Melchers. Quickly, the Frenchman called.

Dorian Melchers: K♣J♠
Richard Smith: A♠10♣

The turn Q♠ opened a straight draw for Melchers. But he didn't find a ten on the river 2♠. This last card led to Melchers' elimination in 7th place for $54,408.

Nível 39 : Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante

Under the gun, Jason Johnson opened to 2,400,000. However, even though he shares the same last name as his opponent, Charles Johnson in the small blind had no mercy for him and moved all in for 12,000,000 chips.

Jason Johnson thought about his decision for more than two minutes and called with a bigger stack.

Charles Johnson: A♠5♠
Jason Johnson: 7♦7♣

"Let's go, CJ!" shouted Charles Johnson's friends to help him. And the supporters were heard, as "CJ" hit two pairs on 5♥6♠A♣. But on the turn, a terrible 7♥ gave Jason Johnson a set, overpowering Charles Johnson's two pairs. The situation did not change on the river J♦.

"The seven on the turn," repeated a desperate "CJ" while leaving the area in sixth place for $70,247.
