Level 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Mohamed Aissaoui in the small blind and Carlos Egea in the hijack had created a pot of 450,000 when Aissaoui moved all in for 260,000 on the 3J2 flop.

Egea made the call to put his opponent at risk and the cards were tabled.

Mohamed Aissaoui: KK All in
Carlos Egea: 88

Aissaoui's kings faced no threat on the 3 turn or 6 river, doubling him up to a seven-figure stack. Egea, meanwhile, remained the chip leader at the table with over 40 big blinds.

Putz’s Back-and-Forth Battle

Level 23 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

In the first hand, Andreas Putz raised to 55,000 and faced an all-in from Jaison Cardoso, which he called.

Jaison Cardoso: J10All in
Andreas Putz: AK

Cardoso hit a ten on the 3Q10 flop, but Putz improved to a pair of kings with the K turn. However, the 9 river gave Cardoso a straight, securing the double-up for him.

With only 85,000 left, Putz went all-in again in the very next hand, this time against Gabriel Cunha. Putz held QQ, while Cunha had AJ.

The board came 1085610, and Putz’s pocket queens held up, allowing him to double up.

Senol Ardic

Renato Hysenbelli raised to 50,000 in early position, after which the action folded to Senol Ardic in the small blind. He put Hysenbelli all-in for 380,000 and received a quick call.

Renato Hysenbelli: AK All in
Senol Ardic: JJ

Hysenbelli added some outs on the 10Q2 flop, but the 3 turn was no good for him. The J river was, however, as his Broadway straight bested the three jacks of Ardic.
