"ale kmkz" Eliminated in 4th Place ($41,384.36)

Level 39 : 250,000/500,000, 62,500 ante

Jorryt "TheCleaner11" van Hoof remained the dominating chip leader and further cemented that with the elimination of second-placed "ale kmkz" who entered the hand with a near identical stack as "0m3rta".

An open-shove for just shy of 20 big blinds from under the gun by "ale kmkz" saw van Hoof reshove the small blind to create the following showdown.

"ale kmkz": {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
Jorryt "TheCleaner11" van Hoof: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}

The board came {7-Clubs}{6-Spades}{2-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} and that sent the Brazilian to the rail in 4th place for $41,384.36.

"Play4livin" Scores a Double; van Hoof In Control

Level 39 : 250,000/500,000, 62,500 ante

"Play4livin" patiently waited for another spot to get his chips in and ended up at risk against "ale kmkz" in yet another duel between them.

"Play4livin": {a-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}
"ale kmkz": {k-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}

As if the final table needed another dramatic runout, it was certainly delivered on the {8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{a-Clubs} board. The king on the turn seemingly sealed the fate for "Play4livin" but he had the superior flush draw, instead the ace hit on the river.

With suddenly three even stacks at the bottom, it was Jorryt "TheCleaner11" van Hoof that ramped up the aggression and raked in several pots without showdown to cement his top spot until the next scheduled 5-minute break kicked off.

Van Hoof Doubles Twice and Takes Lead

Level 39 : 250,000/500,000, 62,500 ante

In a remarkable turn of events, Jorryt "TheCleaner11" van Hoof turned a mere four big blinds into the chip lead within a few minutes. He was first successful with a stop-and-go against "ale kmkz" when he just called a raise preflop and then successfully jammed a {a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{4-Hearts} flop.

"ale kmkz" then jammed his next button into the two shorter stacks and van Hoof made the call with {k-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}, which was ahead of {j-Clubs}{7-Spades}. The {8-Spades}{8-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{q-Spades} board kept king-high in the lead.

The next all-in proved to be a tough one for van Hoof, who jammed the button for 19 big blinds with the {a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} and was called instantly by "ale kmkz" in the big blind with the {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}. No ace from space in sight on the {j-Spades}{9-Clubs}{7-Clubs} flop and {2-Spades} turn ... but the {a-Clubs} struck on the river.

Level: 39

Blinds: 250,000/500,000

Ante: 62,500

"ale kmkz" Pulls Further Ahead; van Hoof now the Short Stack

Level 38 : 200,000/400,000, 50,000 ante

"0m3rta" limp-called a raise to 1.4 million by chip leader "ale kmkz" and they checked the {j-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds} flop, "0m3rta" bet the {6-Clubs} turn for 930,000 and the call of "ale kmkz" followed. The {q-Spades} river was checked and "ale kmkz" won the pot with {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} versus {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts},

"0m3rta" won the chips and more back when he took on Jorryt "TheCleaner11" van Hoof two hands later. He raised the cutoff to 840,000 and van Hoof came along out of the big blind. What followed was a check-call by van Hoof for 644,800 on the {q-Spades}{7-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} flop and 2,325,024 on the {j-Hearts} turn.

After the {8-Diamonds} river, van Hoof checked and used his time bank before folding to a shove of "0m3rta".

Disaster struck again the next hand for van Hoof when "Play4livin" jammed with {a-Spades}{j-Spades} and he isolated out of the small blind with {a-Clubs}{9-Hearts}. The kicker remained supreme on the below board to let "Play4livin escape once more when at risk.

Van Hoff Bests "0m3rta"; Loses to "ale kmkz"

Level 38 : 200,000/400,000, 50,000 ante

Jorryt "TheCleaner11" van Hoof lost some chips to "0m3rta" and then won them back when he raised to 1.4 million in the small blind and picked up a call out of the big blind.

On the {j-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{8-Clubs} flop, van Hoof's continuation bet of 990,000 received a call and the same applied for the second barrel worth 1,643,400 on the {a-Diamonds} turn. The {3-Spades} river brought no betting action and {j-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} for a pair of jacks was good enough for van Hoof.

"ale kmkz" then made two pair with {a-Spades}{6-Clubs} on a board of {9-Clubs}{8-Spades}{2-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{6-Spades} and picked up five big blinds in total from van Hoof.
