Level 25
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
On a heads-up flop of 4♣10♣4♥, the pot had around 450,000 in it when Jesse Jones check-called a bet of 150,000 from Andre Allen.
The turn came out the 5♠ and both players decided to check and saw the 4♠ fall on the river.
Jones then bombed 540,000 into the pot, putting the pressure on Allen who went deep into the tank.
After a good minute or so of deliberation, he set out a stack of chips and made the call. He was then shown 10♦5♦ by Jones for a full house (fours full of tens), and Allen quickly mucked.
"I had pocket sevens, I thought you just had a five," Allen admitted as Jones was pushed the sizeable pot.
"I'm done messing with you on your big blind," Allen continued, which got a smile from Jones.

: 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
On a heads-up completed board of 5♦A♥Q♦2♣2♦, there was around 500,000 in the pot when Matthew Snook moved all in for 550,000.
The action was then on Andre Allen, who went deep into the tank. After a good while, he finally flicked in a chip to put Snook at risk.
Snook rolled over 8♥5♥ for two-pair, fives and deuces, but then Allen rolled over K♠K♦ for a much bigger two pair to win the hand, eliminating Snook in 8th place.

Level 25
: 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Short-stacked Joseph McCaig moved all in preflop and was called by Jason Brin to put him at risk of elimination.
Joseph McCaig: Q♦8♦
Jason Brin: K♠K♣
McCaig was going to need a lot of help to stay alive, but on the turn board of 5♠3♥2♣10♥ he was left drawing dead and the meaningless 10♣ on the river sealed his fate as he exited in 9th place as the first final table casualty.

Level 24
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Mark Punzalan open-jammed for 830,000 and Casey Henry went into the tank before making the call to put him at risk.
Mark Punzalan: A♠J♣
Casey Henry: A♥Q♦
Punzaln needed some help to catch up to Henry's superior holding, but the board of 6♠5♦8♠Q♠10♦ did not do him any favors and he was eliminated from the tournament in 10th place.

Level 24
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Jesse Jones opened to 125,000 under-the-gun and was called by Andre Allen in the cutoff.
The flop came out 4♠5♥5♦ and Jones continued for 60,000. Allen then raised him to 200,000 but Jones decided to click back to 340,000. Allen thought about it for a second before making the call and the two went to the turn Q♠.
Both players decided to check and went to the river 3♣. Jones checked once more, to which Allen responded by moving all in for his remaining 300,000 and Jones promptly folded to award him the pot.
