Ghassan Gone, Sereika Chips Up

Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Ibrahim Ghassan
Ibrahim Ghassan

On a flop of QKQ, Ibrahim Ghassan got his remaining stack of around 45,000 into the middle and Karolis Sereika called.

Ibrahim Ghassan: KJ All in
Karolis Sereika: AK

It didn't look good for Ghassan as he didn't have much hope of winning the pot, but there were a few chop outs still in the deck. However, the 6 turn wasn't one of them, and neither was the A river as Sereika improved to aces up, which meant Ghassan was eliminated.

Stoyanov's Flopped Straight Sends Hutchinson's Cowboys Home

Level 13 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Radoslav Stoyanov
Radoslav Stoyanov

Dean Hutchinson had gotten in his last 20,000 chips on a board of 7910Q, Timo Kamphues folded, which left Radoslav Stoyanov to try and eliminate Hutchinson.

Dean Hutchinson: KK All in
Radoslav Stoyanov: 86

Hutchinson's pocket kings only had four outs to a jack as Stoyanov had flopped a straight. Unfortunately for Hutchinson, the river was a brick, which meant he hit the rail as the money bubble looms closer.

Nina Krasilnikova
Nina Krasilnikova

Nina Krasilnikova open-jammed for 35,500 from early position, prompting Bernhard Binder to move all in just north of 200,000. The rest of the table got out of the way, and the cards went on their backs.

Nina Krasilnikova: 88All in
Bernhard Binder: JJ

Krasilnikova asked for an eight, but the KJ9 flop rewarded Binder with a set of jacks instead. The K confirmed Krasilnikova's exit ahead of the Q river.
