"HemmingWai" Eliminated in 19th Place ($13,272.45)

Luis "luisnrd" Dorneles open-raised from the cutoff to 1,025,000 before the action folded to "HemmingWai" in the big blind. They made a reraise to 4,000,000 and Dorneles complied with some extra chips.

The flop saw 2♠6♣Q♥ being put on the table and "HemmingWai" continued for another 4,000,000. Once more, Dorneles made the call and the J♣ turn was dealt.

"HemmingWai" now put his last 7,068,774 chips in the middle and Dorneles followed suit, covering his opponent by a mere 41,490 chips.

"HemmingWai": A♦7♣
Luis "luisnrd" Dorneles: A♥A♠

Dorneles had slow-played his aces to perfection, resulting in his opponent bluffing off their stack while drawing dead on the turn. "HemmingWai" saw the river 5♥ fall as a formality before their avatar disappeared from the table.

"BOSStouche" Eliminated in 20th Place ($13,272.45)

The action folded to "IReadB00ks" in the small blind. They went all-in while covering the big blind "BOSStouche"s 5,245,925 stack, and "BOSStouche" made the call.

"BOSStouche": J♥9♠
"IReadB00ks": 5♣5♦

It was a flip, and "IReadB00ks" fives held on during the 4♦Q♣6♠K♦ runout. Now with some extra gutshot outs, "BOSStouche" needed to hit the river to stay in the tournament but they failed to do so when the 3♦ river was put on the virtual felt.

Thus, they were eliminated and took home a five-figure score for their efforts.

"Geigamascht" Eliminated in 21st Place ($13,272.45)

Arsenii "josef_shvejk" Karmatckii raised to 1,000,000 from middle position before "Geigamascht" put in the three-bet to 2,600,000 from the cutoff. The action folded back to Karmatckii, who four-bet jammed. He covered "Geigamascht"s stack of ten million and "Geigamascht" made the call.

"Geigamascht": A♣Q♣
Arsenii "josef_shvejk" Karmatckii: J♥J♣

A classic flip and it would be decided in Karmatckii's favor when the board ran out 7♦2♠3♠7♣2♣. Karmatckii's jacks gave him the higher two pair, and "Geigamascht" was the latest player to exit from the SCOOP Main Event.

Level 42 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 62,500 ante

"Grekzorba" Eliminated in 22nd Place ($13,272.45)

The action folded to "Geigamascht" in the small blind, and they opted to go all-in, covering "Grekzorba"s 3,270,723 stack. "Gregzorba" made the call for their tournament life and the cards were tabled.

"Grekzorba": K♥9♣
"Geigamascht": A♠7♦

"Geigamascht" had the better hand preflop and would crush "Grekzorba"s dreams once the 10♠A♦A♥ flop was dealt. The 9♥ turn officially resulted in the end of their tournament as no cards were left in the deck that could save them.

The inconsequential 10♦ river rolled off and "Grekzorba"s seat became unoccupied

Player	Chips	Progress
Geigamascht	11,296,951 7,021,337	7,021,337
Grekzorba	Busted

Level 42 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 62,500 ante

"FabioC.p.br" Eliminated in 23rd Place ($13,272.45)

"Bretera" started the action with a minraise of 1,000,000 from under the gun before "FabioC.p.br" made it 2,400,000 to go from middle position. "19Dan86" then came in with a cold four-bet jam from the button worth 18,455,200 and "Bretera" quickly folded. "FabioC.p.br" made the quick call while being covered by the jam and was flipping for his tournament life.

"FabioC.p.br": A♣K♥
"19Dan86": Q♥Q♣

"19Dan86" flopped a set on Q♠3♣J♣, and while the 7♣ turn brought a sweat, the K♠ river would mean the end of "FabioC.p.br"s Main Event run.

Bretera	36,005,980 -850,000	-850,000

Level 41 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 50,000 ante

"Alex Shepel" Eliminated in 24th Place ($9,384.84)

"Alex Shepel" entered the final three tables as the absolute short stack, and got his 1,377,952 remaining chips in from under the gun. "HemmingWai" then minraised from middle position and the rest of the table folded.

"Alex Shepel": Q♥J♥
"HemmingWai": Q♣K♠

"Alex Shepel" was dominated and "HemmingWai" immediately flopped top pair on 6♦K♣4♥. The 8♦ turn meant that "Alex Shepel" had no chance to win the hand, and he had to take his leave once the 6♣ river rolled off.

HemmingWai	25,731,274 500,000	500,000

Level 41 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 50,000 ante

PokerStars Ambassador Ramon "RamonColillas" Colillas was the last of his kind remaining in the tournament. He was sitting in the small blind when "FAPTOBblY_BACK" open-shoved for 6,931,294 chips. Colillas was the only one to make the call, with the lesser stack of 5,489,770, and all was now in fate's hands.

Ramon "RamonColillas" Colillas: A♣K♣
FAPTOBblY_BACK: A♠J♦

All was looking well for Colillas on the 6♣5♥Q♠ flop. However, the J♥ turn was dealt and it spelled disaster for the Spanish pro. No king came looking as the 6♠ river completed the hand, and Colillas took a sour exit from the SCOOP Main Event.

On outer tables, three more people took their leave to create the final three tables of eight players.

Dorneles Denies "3betwizkid" the Chip Lead

"magocapria27" made the first aggressive action with a raise to 630,000 from the cutoff. The button folded and "3betwizkid" shoved their massive stack of 23,447,009 in the middle, far and away covering the two other players left to act.

Luis "luisnrd" Dorneles was in the big blind and went deep into the tank. Eventually, he came up with a call to risk his 10,281,810 stack and tournament life. "magocapria27", meanwhile, had seen enough and let their hand go, leaving the other two players to fight for a humongous pot.

Luis "luisnrd" Dorneles: A♠J♠
"3betwizkid": A♦K♠

"3betwizkid" was in great shape to take a commanding chip lead over the field, and that remained the case once the 2♥5♣8♥ flop was dealt. However, the J♥ turn brought a role reversal, and Dorneles surely thanked his lucky stars when the safe 8♠ completed the board.

The 70 big blind pot headed towards Dorneles, while "3betwizkid" was relegated to the middle of the pack.

After the hand was over, the empty seats on the table filled up as "aferrao147" had busted on another table, leaving the field with 32 competitors and thus four tables.

Player	Chips	Progress
Luis "luisnrd" Dorneles	21,398,620 9,283,286	9,283,286

Level 39 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 37,500 ante

"aferrao147" made the minimum raise of 600,000 from middle position and the action folded to Anatoly "NL_Profit" Filatov in the big blind. Filatov was left with just shy of ten big blinds and decided to wager his entire 2,960,600 stack by clicking on the all-in button. "aferrao147" made the call and the players were off to the races.

Anatoly "NL_Profit" Filatov: A♥K♠
"aferrao147": 8♦8♥

Another flip in the Main Event, and, this time, the pocket pair held as the board ran out low cards with 6♣6♦4♣9♦2♣. That spelled the end for Filatov and one of online poker most recognizable names took his leave.

Level 37 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 25,000 ante

"fkiw" Quadruples His Stack in Four-Way Preflop All-In

The hand started very calmly when "DerRappler" raised from middle position to 400,000 and "IReadB00ks" flatted from the cuttoff. "Gogac sniper" was left short in the small blind and put their 534,666 chips in the middle, as did "fkiw" in the big blind for their stack of 857,223.

"DerRappler" made the call before "IReadB00ks" decided that all would be decided preflop, as they raised all-in themself, covering "DerRappler"s stack of 5,365,519. "DerRappler" called once more, and all four players had hopes of winning a bit pot.

"Gogac sniper": Q♠6♠
"fkiw": 8♦6♦
"DerRappler": K♦K♣
"IReadB00ks": A♥Q♦

The flop of 8♣4♠7♥ kept everyone alive in some capacity, but on the 8♥ turn "fkiw" took a gigantic lead. The 2♠ river would mean their trips remained best, and they scooped a big quadruple-up to over 9 million chips. Meanwhile, "DerRappler" won a big side pot as a consolation prize, while "Gogac sniper" was eliminated.
