Ryan Lashmar

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

With two players seeing a board of 9♥8♥3♣ and roughly 60,000 already in the middle, Chadi Akremi checked from the small blind blind, Mykyta Andrusiak bet 50,000 from the big blind, Kai Fuong folded from the button and Akremi made the call.

Both players checked the 10♣ turn leading to the 3♠ river. Akremi moved all in, covering Andrusiak who had 83,000 behind. Andrusiak made the call and showed K♠9♣ for second pair. Akremi tabled Q♦10♠ for top pair to send the Day 1c chip leader to the rail and take down a nice pot.

Level 19 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

At nearly the same time as Fernando Santa Maria was eliminated at the other table, Ahmed Abdella was also eliminated from the tournament.

Abdella got the last of his chips in with Q♦10♥ on a queen-high flop but was out-kicked by Fernando Celdran, who called holding K♥Q♣ for a better top pair. Abdella failed to improve and was sent to the rail while Celdran continued to add chips to his stack.

The tournament is now briefly being paused to set up a full two-table redraw.

Level 19 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Chadi Akremi opened to 32,000 from under the gun and received a call from Javier Romero in the hijack before Rigu Martin moved all in for 204,000 from the cutoff. Akremi made the call with a covering stack and Romero got out of the way leaving Martin at risk.

Rigu Martin: 2♥2♠

Martin pulled way ahead with a set on the A♦2♦8♣ flop but the 3♠ turn gave Akremi some more outs in the form of a gutshot straight draw. The straight came in on the 4♦ river and Martin was sent to the rail in brutal fashion while Akremi surpassed one million chips.

Adrian Lipe: 10x4x
Kai Fuong: KxKx
