Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Cherish Andrews opened to 16,000 from the button and was called by Nozomu Shimizu in the big blind.

Shimizu check-called a 20,000 bet from Andrews on the 10♥J♠A♣ flop and both players checked on the K♣ turn.

The 3♥ completed the board and Shimizu led out for 46,000.

Andrews decided to look Shimizu up and he revealed Q♠8♥ for broadway. Andrews couldn't beat it and mucked — conceding the pot to Shimizu.

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Nick Pupillo opened the action to 20,000 from under the gun and it folded around to Kristen Foxen in the big blind who made the call.

The flop fanned out 9♥2♥2♣ and Foxen check-called a bet of 25,000 from Pupillo. On the 8♣ turn play slowed down with both players checking to the 3♦ river.

Foxen cut out a bet of 65,000 and Pupillo went in the tank. After close to a minute of thought, Pupillo reluctantly folded his cards and the pot was sent to Foxen without showdown.

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

An early position player opened to 22,000 and it folded to Viliyan Petleshkov on the button who moved all in for 215,000. The small blind folded and Michael Rodrigues made the call in the big blind with a bigger stack. The initial raiser got out of the way and the cards were on their backs.

Viliyan Petleshkov: J♥J♣
Michael Rodrigues: A♠K♠

It was a classic flip situation, and when the board ran out 7♣6♥4♣J♠5♥, it was the jacks that held up to win the flip and score a massive double up for Petleshkov close to the money bubble.

Player	Chips	Progress
Viliyan Petleshkov	470,000 181,000	181,000
Michael Rodrigues	245,000 -263,000	-263,000

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Josh Arieh raised to 20,000 from early position and action folded around to Joshua Reichard in the small blind, who went all in.

Action folded back to Arieh, who said "I don't care about eight thousand (dollars)" as he called off for his remaining 258,000 to be put at risk.

Josh Arieh: 10♦10♥
Joshua Reichard: A♠7♠

Arieh was ahead, and the 2♥4♠J♥7♦K♣ runout kept his tens out in front for the double up.

Shiva Dudani raised from under-the-gun and action folded around to Cherish Andrews in the big blind, who went all in for her last 109,000. Dudani quickly called and hands were revealed.

Cherish Andrews: Q♦Q♠
Shiva Dudani: 5♣5♦

Andrews was well ahead with her pocket queens, but the 3♠4♣8♠2♣6♣ runout gave Dudani a runner-runner straight to KO Andrews and burst the money bubble.

The remaining field is now guaranteed a minimum payout of $8,011.
