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

With around 125,000 chips in the pot on a flop of A♠2♠2♥, Toby Joyce check-called a bet of 40,000 from Tyler Hatchel.

Both players checked the Q♠ turn to see the 9♠ fall on the river. With four spades on board, Joyce checked it over to Hatchel, who shoved all in. Joyce had around 265,000 chips behind and was taking so long with his decision that one of his tablemates called the clock. During the 30-second countdown, Joyce committed the rest of his stack.

Hatchel then tabled J♠J♥ for a flush, and Joyce launched his cards across the table in frustration, which revealed he made the call with A♦Q♥ for top two pair.

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

A player in early position raised to 22,000 before John Borges moved all in for 173,000 in middle position. Gabriel Moura called on the button, as did the original raiser.

Both players checked the 5♠2♦3♣ flop. The turn was the 6♦ and Moura bet 80,000. His opponent called to create a side pot and they both checked down the 5♣ river.

Borges showed 10♥10♣, but Moura turned over J♥J♠. "Oh, you do outpip me," Borges said before wishing the table good luck and making his way to the payout desk.

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

Picking up the action partway through the hand, Andreas Wagner in middle position was all in and at risk for his stack of 300,000 against Bojan Gledovic on the button.

Andreas Wagner: A♣A♠ All in
Bojan Gledovic: A♥J♦

Wagner had found pocket rockets at an opportune time and held on the 4♠9♣7♥2♦8♦ runout to secure the full double, leaving Gledovic with just 20,000.

Andy Spears opened to 20,000 from middle position and Andrew Rodgers moved all in for 150,000 from late position. Action folded back around to Spears, who called despite seeming unhappy with the situation.

Andy Spears: Q♦J♦

Spears would need to connect to win the pot and did just that after the board ran out A♦4♠J♠A♠7♦ to send Rodgers out of the tournament.

Frank Visser

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

UFC fighter Colby Covington and high roller Aleksejs Ponakovs had created a pot of 100,000 chips when they arrived on a turn of 2♠Q♦8♦9♠. After an unseen action from Ponakovs, Covington put out 125,000 chips.

Ponakovs then raised all in, covering Covington's stack of roughly 320,000 chips. Covington went into the tank but eventually slammed in a call for his tournament life.

Colby Covington: A♦Q♥ All in
Aleksejs Ponakovs: 9♣2♣

The 3♥ river did not counterfeit Ponakov's two pair as Covington was sent to the rail.
