Kuznetsov Doubles Through Smiljkovic

Blinds 2,500-5,000

Following a raise to 10,000 by Nikita "VSMPZD" Kuznetsov, it was Daniel Smiljkovic who defended the big blind and check-shoved the {k-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} flop. Kuznetsov quickly called and had the best of it with {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs} versus {k-Clubs}{10-Hearts}.

That didn't change on the {2-Hearts} turn and {5-Clubs} river to keep Kuznetsov in contention.

Higgs vs Ben Lulu Once More

Blinds 2,500-5,000

Sam "samsam81" Higgs check-raised the {j-Spades}{6-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} flop to 21,120 and Yosi "spartan1981" Ben Lulu came along to the {9-Clubs} turn. Higgs led for 40,680 and called a raise to 95,000 to then check-fold to a shove by Ben Lulu on the {2-Hearts} river.

Higgs then got it in a couple hands later when his bet of 15,000 on a four-way flop of {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{10-Hearts} only saw Ben Lulu come along. Higgs bet the {8-Clubs} turn and snap-called all-in when facing a shove.

Sam "samsam81" Higgs: {q-Clubs}{j-Hearts}
Yosi "spartan1981" Ben Lulu: {a-Spades}{6-Spades}

Higgs doubled right back, a meaningless {9-Hearts} on the river completed the board.

"MasterRoshi" Hits the Rail

Blinds 2,500-5,000

Just around 700 players remain as the eliminations keep on coming.

The latest casualty was Canada's "MasterRoshi" who open-jammed the last 81,430 with the {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts} and was called by "MasterRoshi" in the big blind with the {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs}. No face cards appeared on the {10-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{6-Hearts} board to keep jacks in the lead.

Lakemeier Earns Two Bounties

Blinds 2,500-5,000

Right before the blinds went up, another three-way showdown emerged with "Slambamiel" holding the {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} and "en_slo" tabling {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs} as the two players at risk.

Jens "Tankanza" Lakemeier held a pair with the {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} and the {j-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} board kept things in his favor.
