The last four minutes of the level brought three all ins on two different tables and all three players at risk would be sent to the rail.

Hand 1

Fedor Holz raised from the cutoff and Manig Loeser moved all in from the small blind for around 225,000. Holz called and the cards were turned over.

Manig Loeser: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}
Fedor Holz: {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs}

The flop of {A-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{2-Spades} improved Holz to a pair of aces, and neither the {2-Clubs} turn nor the {10-Hearts} river saw Loeser regain the lead.

Hand 2

Timothy Adams raised to 24,000 and David Peters three-bet to 75,000 before Adams four-bet all in for around 250,000. Peters called and immediately rolled over his cards for the showdown.

David Peters: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}
Timothy Adams: {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}

The board came {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}{3-Spades}{4-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} and Adams was eliminated.

Hand 3

Last but not least, Daniel Negreanu open-shoved from the small blind and into the big blind of short stack Dario Sammartino. The Italian called and had found a pocket pair.

Dario Sammartino: {5-Clubs}{5-Spades}
Daniel Negreanu: {10-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}

A cruel run out of {9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{7-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} saw Negreanu hit the better straight and Sammartino was the last casualty before the dinner break.
