All three players checked to the 6553A river, where Gebow checked once more. Velasevic dropped a bet of 50,000 across the line, and Eibinger called before Gebow mucked his hand.

Sposato Sets the Trap

Level 10 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Gaspare Sposato limped in from under the gun which invited Brek Schutten to come along on his left and Tommy Nguyen in the small blind. Fabian Niederreiter raised to 150,000 from the big blind and Sposato jammed all in for 360,000. Schutten and Nguyen quickly folded and Niederreiter called.

Gaspare Sposato: KQAll in
Fabian Niederreiter: AJ

"I have a good feeling," Sposato said as the QQ8 flop hit the felt. The K on the turn improved him to a full house and Niderreiter was drawing dead to the 9 on the river.

Not Even Two More Cards Could Save Parssinen

Level 10 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Eelis Paerssinen
Eelis Paerssinen

Paul Esau raised it up from early position and Eelis Parssinen called from the cutoff. They went heads-up to a flop of A86 and Esau started with a check. Parssinen tossed in a bet of 65,000 and Esau just called.

The 8 paired the board on the turn and Esau checked again. Parssinen slid in a bet of 100,000 and Esau still called. The K completed the board and Esau checked for the third time. Parssinen moved all in as the bigger stack and Esau snapped him off for his last 455,000.

Parssinen went to muck his cards but they were turned over as the players were all-in. Parssinen held 43 for complete air while Esau showed AA for a full house. Moments later, the four-card specialist from Finland was eliminated in the last level of the night.

Brewer Jams for Over Pot

Waikiat Lee raised it up to 50,000 from the cutoff and Chris Brewer defended from the big blind. The flop came J84 and both players checked to the 5 on the turn.
