Mustapha Kanit limped in from under the gun and Darius Samual raised to 1,700,000 in middle position. Kanit called and they went heads-up to the Q♦10♣9♠ flop. Samual then moved all in and Kanit called for 2,800,000.

Darius Samual: A♣Q♥

Level 25 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Roeland Peeks raised to 1,000,000 in early position and Rainer Kempe just called from the big blind. The flop came 6♥4♥2♠ and Kempe checked to Peeks who slid out a stack of chips for a bet of 7,000,000. That is when things got interesting.

Kempe noticed that there were still two extra cards beside his stack of chips that were left from the previous hand in which he shoved all in preflop and received no action.

"I'm pretty sure my hand is dead," Kempe said. "But you should call the floor."

The floor was called over and Kempe's hand was ruled dead since essentially he was deemed to have four cards.

"I've never seen this before, but it's the right ruling. I had a call, too."

Player	Chips	Progress
Roeland Peeks	22,400,000 -1,800,000	-1,800,000
Rainer Kempe	3,150,000 -4,050,000	-4,050,000

Level 25 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Heads-up on a flop of K♦Q♣3♦, Vlad Lache bet 900,000 from middle position and Mustapha Kanit called in the big blind.

Lache bet another 2,400,000 on the 5♣ turn, but this time Kanit came back with an all-in shove. Lache burned through multiple time banks and took several minutes before committing his last 7,200,000.

Lache showed A♦A♥, but he had been outdrawn by Kanit's K♠Q♦ for top two pair. "Five," Lache pleaded, but the 3♠ was just as good as Lache made a better two pair to double up.

Vlad Lache	19,200,000 14,975,000	14,975,000
