Level 6 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Aliaksandr Shylko opened from under the gun and then called when Dai Ishibashi three-bet to 12,000 from middle position.

The J♣9♠7♣ flop checked through to the J♥ turn when Shylko opted to lead for 12,000, and Ishibashi made the call.

The river brought the 7♠. Shylko led once again, this time for 28,000. Ishibashi contemplated for a while before he tossed in a single chip to call. He got the bad news as Skylko revealed 7♥7♦ for quad sevens as he raked in a sizeable pot.

Patrick Cole

Level 6 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Action was picked up with Kyosuke Nagami all in and at risk against the covering stack of Kenan Taylor.

Kyosuke Nagami: A♥K♠ All in
Kenan Taylor: K♣K♥

Taylor was in good shape to send Nagami to the rail after the 9♣J♠5♦ flop. His hopes were dashed as the A♠ put Nagami in a commanding position to secure the double up. The 4♠ river confirmed that Nagami would stay in the tournament and take most of Taylor's chips in the process.

Player	Chips	Progress
Kyosuke Nagami	245,000 150,000	150,000
Kenan Taylor	15,000 -80,000	-80,000

Action was picked up on a flop of A♦9♥A♥. Kenan Taylor checked from the big blind to Jean-Noel Thorel who opted to bet 5,500 into a pot of 12,000. Taylor made the call.

The 2♣ turn was checked around before Taylor led the 4♠ river for 24,000. Thorel took little time before flicking in a 25,000 chip to make the call. Taylor tabled A♣6♠ for flopped trips and scooped the pot.

Level 5 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Choon Tong Siow opened to 5,000 from under the gun. Dean Lyall reraised in early position to 12,000. Action folded around to Elias Gutierrez on the button who called. Both blinds folded but Siow called.

Siow checked the 2♣J♦10♠ flop to Lyall, who moved all in for around 65,000. Gutierrez folded and Siow snap-called Lyall's bet. The players showed down.

Choon Tong Siow: 2♠2♥ All in
Dean Lyall: A♣K♥

Lyall was behind but had outs to improve to broadway. He found the Q♠ on the turn, but the river Q♣ provided Siow with a full house and most of Lyall's chips.

Player	Chips	Progress
Choon Tong Siow	125,000 25,000	25,000
Elias Gutierrez	95,000 -75,000	-75,000

Level 5 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Tom Vogelsang opened to 3,500 and Elias Gutierrez three-bet to 9,000 from the hijack, which Vogelsang called.

On the 9♦5♠4♦ flop, Vogelsang check-called a bet of 12,000 from Gutierrez.

The turn brought the 2♣ and the action checked through.

The 3♦ peeled off on the river and Vogelsang checked for a third time. Gutierrez thought for a while before he tossed out a 25,000 chip. Vogelsang responded with a check-jam for 63,000 and Gutierrez snapped it off.

Elias Gutierrez: 7♠6♠ All in
Tom Vogelsang: A♦Q♥

Gutierrez rivered the nut straight to find the full double while Vogelsang had a lesser wheel.
