Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

The seat of Maria Konnikova was empty and Josip Simunic confirmed that he had taken the remaining chips of the PokerStars ambassador. "I three-bet to 7,000 and she shoved for 17,000. I called with ace-ten, she had jacks and I got there," the Austrian said. Simunic moved to a comfortable stack well above the average.

Even more chips currently belong to Aleksandr Sheshukov and Claudio Di Giacomo, who clashed in a bigger pot.

Di Giacomo's raise in the cutoff was three-bet to 8,500 by Sheshukov on the button and the small blind called, as did Di Giacomo. On the {J-Spades}{5-Clubs}{4-Clubs} flop, the small blind bet 12,000 and picked up two calls before checking the {4-Spades} turn. Di Giacomo called as well and Sheshukov made it 20,000 to go, which only the Italian called.

On the {5-Diamonds} river the board paired for the second time and Di Giacomo moved all in. Sheshukov shook his head, added some words in Russian and folded.
