In two hands, Belgium's Triple Crown winner Davidi Kitai surged from short stack to above average, eliminating Scotland's Niall Farrell in the process.

Hand 1
Davidi Kitai open-shoved for 270,000 in middle position. Directly to his left, Niall Farrell reshoved for 309,000 total, covering Kitai slightly.

Davidi Kitai: {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades}
Niall Farrell: {A-Spades}{J-Spades}

Kitai's better ace high held up on {6-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}{5-Clubs}, leaving Farrell crippled behind.

Hand 2
In the next hand, Kitai opened to 55,000 and Farrell called all in for 35,000. Steve O'Dwyer three-bet to 170,000. Kitai took a while before four-bet shoving all in for 596,000. O'Dwyer gave it a quick thought, then called off the remainder of Kitai's stack, putting the Belgian once again at risk.

Davidi Kitai: {A-Hearts}{A-Spades}
Niall Farrell: {K-Spades}{8-Diamonds}
Steve O'Dwyer: {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}

The flop {A-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{2-Spades} couldn't be much better for Kitai, and he doubled up again after the {3-Hearts} turn and {10-Diamonds} river. Farrell was eliminated, O'Dwyer left short.
