Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

A player raised to 35,000 under the gun and the small blind called before Sangwon Ko moved all in for 225,000 in the big blind. The under-the-gun player reshoved and the small blind got out of the way.

Sangwon Ko: A♦A♣ All in
Opponent: J♦8♦

Ko was far ahead with his aces and his opponent found no help on the 4♣7♠Q♦K♥K♦ board as Ko doubled up.

Ko also moved all in the next two hands but got no takers this time as he took down the pots uncontested.

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Action picked up on the river with a large pot developing in a hand between Russell Rosenblum in late position and the player in middle position.

With the board reading 7♣3♣2♠K♦J♠, middle position checked and Rosenblum fired out a hefty bet of 450,000.

After taking some time to think through his decision, middle position eventually flicked in the call and saw the bad news Rosenblum tabled 3x3x for a set of threes.

Cottrell van Wingerden

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

The details of the hand were relayed to PokerNews by a player at the table not involved in the hand.

A player opened to 35,000 from middle position before Francisco Sanchez three-bet to 85,000 on the button. The middle position player responded with a four-bet to 185,000, which Sanchez flatted.

The middle position player moved all in for 340,000 following the 8♦9♣10♣ flop and Sanchez quickly called with the covering stack.

Middle Position Player: K♥10♦ All in
Francisco Sanchez: Q♣Jx

Sanchez had flopped a straight to leave his opponent drawing extremely thin. A blank on the turn gave Sanchez the tickmark prior to the Kx river to send the middle position player out of the tournament.

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Luis Vazquez just eliminated another player after a massive pot that catapulted him to the top of the chip counts, and the table filled in the details.

A player raised in early position and Vazquez called in middle position, as did the small blind. The flop came K♦10♦8♣ and Vazquez bet 35,000. The small blind raised to 120,000, Vazquez reraised to 260,000, and the small blind called.

The turn was the Q♣, and Vazquez bet another 340,000. His opponent tanked for several minutes, and Vazquez called the clock. The small blind eventually moved all in for around 1,000,000, and Vazquez called with 9♦7♦ for straight and flush draws.

His opponent had K♣10♣ for two pair and his own flush draw, but the river was the A♦ as Vazquez completed his draw to win the pot and climb past 4,000,000.
