Level 34 : 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Andreas Kniep
Andreas Kniep

Andreas Kniep limped in from the small blind and Alejandro Lococo raised to 1,700,000 in the big blind. Kniep responded by shoving all in for 16,100,000. Lococo asked for a count and then made the call.

Andreas Kniep: {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}
Alejandro Lococo: {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}

It was a coin flip for a huge pot and the flop of {a-Spades}{10-Hearts}{4-Spades} gave Lococo the lead with a pair of aces. The {q-Spades} on the turn improved Lococo to two pair and the {3-Hearts} on the river sent Kniep home in 18th place.

Jung Woo open-shoved for 9,000,000 and Koray Aldemir three-bet to 14,600,000. The rest of the table got out of the way and Woo was at risk.

Jung Woo: {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}
Koray Aldemir: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

The board ran out {6-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{9-Hearts}{3-Clubs} and the flopped jack was enough to spell the end of Woo's Main Event journey as he hit the rail in nineteenth place.

Level 34 : 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
George Holmes
George Holmes

George Holmes completed his small blind and Alejandro Lococo opted to check in the big blind.

The flop came {7-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}, Holmes bet 500,000 and Lococo called.

They both checked through the {5-Diamonds} on the turn to the {3-Spades} on the river. Holmes bet 2,300,000 for Lococo to raise it up to 8,000,000 after a minute of thinking it through. Now it was Holmes' turn to consider his options. He called to see Lococo table the {a-}{8-} to show his own {a-Spades}{7-Clubs} for two pair and the pot.

Ragozzini Gets a Big Bluff Through

Level 34 : 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Sean Ragozzini
Sean Ragozzini

Jareth East opened to 1,000,000 on the button and Jack Oliver in the small blind and Sean Ragozzini in the big blind both called.

Ragozzini led out with a bet on the {5-Spades}{6-Spades}{8-Clubs} flop and East raised to 1,800,000. Oliver folded and Ragozzini called.

Ragozzini led out again on the {6-Diamonds} turn with a bet of 2,600,000. East called.

The river brought the {5-Clubs} and Ragozzini shuffled his large yellow chips before betting 7,000,000 to be nearly all-in with just 25,000 behind. East thought for a few minutes and then held up {a-}{a-} and sent his cards into the muck.

Ragozzini asked if his opponent wanted to see and showed {4-Spades}{2-Spades} for four-high.

Kniep Makes the Right Call

Level 34 : 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Andreas Kniep
Andreas Kniep

After missing the first few hands of the level after the dinner break, including his blinds, Andreas Kniep was back and in a hurry to collect some chips. He first shoved all in from under the gun and the action folded around.

On the next hand, Jareth East raised to 1,000,000 from under the gun and Kniep defended his big blind. The flop came {10-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} and the action checked around to the {8-Clubs} on the turn.

Kniep led out for 2,000,000 and East called to see the {3-Clubs} on the river. Kniep checked this time and East shoved all in, putting Kniep to the test for his remaining 5,550,000 chips.

It took over six minutes in the tank, along with some talking to himself, for Kniep to come to the conclusion of making the call. East turned over {a-Spades}{5-Hearts} but Kniep held {k-Spades}{10-Diamonds} for the better two pair.
