Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

A player was all in for 13,000 and at risk against Patrick Tardif.

Opponent: A♣8♦
Patrick Tardif: Q♠Q♣

The board ran out K♥J♦10♦5♥K♦ and Tardif held with the ladies to secure the pot.

On the next hand, an under the gun player opened to 4,000 and Tardif three-bet to 12,000 in early position. Sefora Pop moved all in for 54,500 and action folded back to Tardif who thought about it but folded.

Pop showed the A♣ as she took the pot, while Tardif nearly broke even between the two hands.

Michael Rodrigues raised the cutoff and action folded to Nikita Luther who was forced all in from the big blind.

Nikita Luther: XxXx
Michael Rodrigues: A♣4♠

Luther kept her cards hidden as the dealer put down the A♠5♣3♥8♥K♥ runout. Luther first flipped over the 8♣ for a sweat, but the other card was revealed to be the 9♦, and she was eliminated.

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Action folded to Doug Chen on the button who raised to 5,500 only to see Morten Norland jam a short stack from the small blind. Jacopo Achille entered the pot in a big way as well by jamming to offer some isolation to Norland's shove, but Chen had different ideas and called his stack off to set up a runout with Chen and Norland both at risk.

Morten Norland: 2♠2♣
Doug Chen: A♥Q♥
Jacopo Achille: 8♠8♥

The board ran out Q♣8♣5♦6♥10♦ with Achille flopping a set to bring an end to both Chen and Norland's Main Event.

Barbero Runs Into Kings

Brandon Bloom

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Nacho Barbero jammed for 41,500 from middle position and was at risk against Jacopo Achille in the cutoff.

Nacho Barbero: A♥9♥
Jacopo Achille: K♠K♦

"Perfect," Barbero said. "I'm winning this one for sure."

The dealer spread the 10♠10♦5♠ flop to keep the kings ahead.

"What?" Barbero said in disbelief as an ace somehow did not appear on the flop.

The K♣ turn left Barbero drawing dead, and the meaningless 8♦ confirmed the result to eliminate him.

Chris Land

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Action folded to Martin Pinxxeiro in the cutoff who raised to 6,000. Jeremy Dan was one seat to his left and opted to come in with a three-bet to 15,000 from the cutoff. The button and blinds folded back to Pinxxeiro who didn't waste much time in putting in the four-bet jam. Dan paused for a moment before deciding to call it off, setting up a runout and putting himself at risk.

Jeremy Dan: A♦J♦
Martin Pinxxeiro: A♣K♠

The board ran out 10♦8♦K♥7♣A♠, giving Dan a lot of outs on the flop but finding two bricks on the turn and river to bring an end to his Main Event as Pinxxeiro stacks a nice pot.

Level 13 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

With roughly 30,000 in the middle on a 7♦4♦4♥ flop, Martin Kabrhel led out for 6,000 in the big blind, and Shaun Deeb raised to 17,000 in early position. The button folded and Kabrhel called.

The 8♣ fell on the turn and Kabrhel checked. Deeb bet enough to cover his opponent and Kabrhel used two time extensions before he called all in for his remaining stack of about 22,000.

Martin Kabrhel: 10♣7♥
Shaun Deeb: 9♠9♦

Kabrhel needed a seven, but the 2♠ river bricked out and he was eliminated, while Deeb added to his huge stack.

Level 13 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Action folded to Barry Hutter who raised to 8,000 from the hijack and got two callers in Soenke Jahn from the small blind and the player in the big blind before seeing the flop come Q♣2♥6♠.

Both Jahn and the big blind checked over to Hutter who continued with a bet of 8,000. Jahn made the call and the big blind player got out of the way to bring out the A♦ on the turn.

Jahn checked it over to Hutter again who reached for chips and came back out with a big bet totaling 32,000. Jahn paused very briefly before putting in the call to head to the A♣ river.

Jahn checked once more and this time, Hutter checked it back to see Jahn turn over the A♠J♦. Hutter tossed his cards into the muck and the dealer pushed the pot in Jahn's direction.

Soenke Jahn	187,000 187,000	187,000
