Level 21 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Shortly after Nikolay Fal was eliminated in 19th place, Dmitry Vitkind was next to hit the rail in 18th for $6,550.

Laurent Polito was then heads up with Artur Adelberg to the 10♥6♦K♣ flop, where all of Polito's chips found the middle of the table.

Laurent Polito: K♠10♣ All in
Artur Adelberg: 10♠10♦

Polito's two pair were no good against Adelberg's set of tens, with the rest of the 9♥J♣ runout changing nothing. Polito was knocked out in 17th place, leaving the final two tables.

Action was three-way with Edgar Yamin and Mahmod Hanif both all in against Karzan Hamarash.

Mahmod Hanif: 5♠5♦ All in
Edgar Yamin: A♠A♥ All in

Artur Adelberg opened from under the gun and Julien Liarte defended his big blind to the 3♠2♥7♦ flop.

Liarte checked and made the call after Adelberg continued for 35,000. The 2♣ turn saw another check from Liarte, calling when Adelberg fired 90,000.

The dealer turned over the 3♣ river and both players checked it down. Liarte showed 4♠4♣, while Adelberg tabled 10♣10♥ for a better two pair to claim the pot.

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Yassin Mahmoud opened to 70,000 in early position and action folded around to Nikolay Fal in the big blind. Fal used a time bank before making the call.

Fal then checked the 3♥2♣3♣ flop, folding quickly when Mahmoud slid out a continuation bet.
