The table folded around to the blinds where Dori Yacoub and Tom Marchese got to see a cheap heads-up flop.
It came down , and Yacoub check-called a bet of 35,000.
The paired the board on fourth street, and Yacoub knocked the table again. Marchese loaded the gun and fired another bullet, a big bet of 110,000. Yacoub thought it over for a moment before smooth calling once again.
The on the river put four to the flush on board, and both players check-checked. Yacoub flipped up for the trip fives, but it was no good against Marchese's rivered flush. His wasn't much to start with, but it turned out rather nicely for the American pro.

Allen Bari - 7th Place
Tobias Renkemeier opened to 45,000 before Allen Bari put in a small 3-bet to 98,000. Renkemeier slid out what looked to be a 4-bet to just over 200,000 but before the dealer could count it out, Bari had moved all-in.
Equally quickly though, was the call from the German as we found ourselves with a bit of a cold deck.
Bari:
Renkemeier:
The board was an aceless meaning Allen Bari was eliminated in 7th place and Renkemeier took over the chip lead from Dori Yacoub.

Mr. Bari smirking at his neighbor Mizzi
Under the gun, Allen Bari raised to 42,000, and the action passed all the way around to the big blind. Sorel Mizzi announced an all in for 363,000 from that spot, and Bari snap-called to put him at risk. Cards up, gents:
Bari:
Mizzi:
Hm, not so much drama then. Mizzi was amused. "That snap-call was a little disrespectful," he said, poking at Bari. The dealer ran out an uninteresting board of (X), and everyone gets there money back, plus a bit.
Mizzi kept jabbing. "I still can't believe you snap-called. I think five seconds at least is in order. Out of respect for my shove."
Bari smirked and fired right back, "I would have called even quicker. It only took me that long because I had to double-check and make sure I had ace-queen. I would have Hellmuth-called you if I was sure!"
