Dominykas Karmazinas started off the action with a raise to 4,800 from the under the gun position. Elliot Smith called on the button and Kelly put in the extra chips from the big blinds.
The flop came down 
and it got checked to Smith who bet 5,400. Kelly was next to act and he threw in a check-raise to 20,400. Karmazinas gave up his hand after which Smith made the call.
The turn was the 
and Kelly put out a bet of 36,000. Smith couldn’t decided wether he wanted to call, raise or fold and it took him well over three minutes, and a lot of sighing, before he made the call.
On the river the 
hit and Kelly checked to Smith who pushed all-in for 71,900. Kelly made the call and mucked when Smith turned over 
. Kelly is knocked all the way down to just 32,000 while Smith is now firmly in second place behind the massive chip stack of Karmazinas.

: 1,200/2,400, 300 ante
Dan Kelly raised to 5,100 from the cutoff and Dan Kelly three-bet to 14,400 from the small blind. After a few moment's thought, Smith made the call and watched the flop fall 
. Kelly fired out 15,500, and Smith folded. Not too exciting, but indicative of what we've been seeing since the elimination of Tony G.
Dominykas Karmazinas raised from the cut-off to 4,800 and Elliot Smith called from the button. From the big blind Tony G also committed the chips after which the flop came down 
. Tony checked to Karmazinas who bet 5,900 and Smith folded his cards. Tony G threw his remaining chips into the pot, and just a couple of seconds later Karmazinas made the call.
