Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

A big heads-up pot brewed as Diogo Coelho bet 900,000 on the river with the board reading 8♥3♣J♥4♥5♦.

Daniel Zadok then raised to 3,500,000 and Coelho went in the tank before landing on a fold, leading Zadok to table A♥8♣ for just a pair of eights with the nut flush blocker.

"He's going for it!" someone at the table said.

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Mauro Juarez three-bet to 500,000 in the cutoff and Joe Tehan four-bet to 1,100,000 in early position. Juarez then moved all in and Tehan snap-called for 2,700,000.

Joe Tehan: Q♦Q♠ All in
Mauro Juarez: A♦K♣

Tehan remained in the lead with his queens as the board ran out 2♦9♦4♠10♦, leaving him one card away from a double up.

The river, though, was the A♣. "F**k," Tehan yelled out as Juarez spiked a pair of aces to win the pot and send Tehan to the rail.

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Orson Young opened to 220,000 from early position and was called by Toby Gibson in middle position and Peter Bloch in the big blind.

Action checked through on the 7♠7♣A♠ flop and Bloch led out for 450,000 on the 5♠ turn. Both Young and Gibson called.

The 9♦ completed the board and Bloch checked to Young, who bet 1,700,000. Gibson called, but then Bloch check-raised all in for 5,260,000. Young called and Gibson tanked for some time before folding what he claimed was K♠10♠ for the nut flush.

Bloch turned over J♥7♥ for trip sevens and Young tabled A♣A♦ for aces full of sevens to take down the monster pot and eliminate Bloch from contention.

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Rene Nezhoda moved all-in for 1,465,000 from under the gun and Arthur Morris then called with a few chips behind. Gary Dishongh in the big blind declared that he was all-in and the dealer announced a three-way all-in as the media and camera crews rushed towards the table to see what was happening.

Morris asked for the stack size of Dishongh, who happened to have called all-in for 1,135,000, and the showdown then proceeded.

Gary Dishongh: A♦A♣ All in
Rene Nezhoda: A♥K♥ All in
Arthur Morris: 8♥8♣

The board ran out Q♥10♠4♠Q♠Q♣ and the jovial Nezhoda was eliminated in the side pot whereas Dishongh tripled up. Morris took a hit to his stack and dropped to ten big blinds.

Heads-up on a flop of 4♥10♦K♣, Kyosuke Nagami bet 550,000 from the cutoff and Alex Keating called in the big blind.

The turn was the 9♣ and Nagami bet 1,700,000. Keating again called and checked to Nagami on the 2♥ river.

Nagami checked back this time. "Ten," Keating announced, but Nagami showed A♣K♦ for a pair of kings as he took the pot.

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Nazar Buhaiov opened under the gun to 200,000 and was called by Tomas Szwarcberg from middle position. Kenneth Kim then squeezed to 750,000 from the cutoff, and Sami Bechahed made it 1,800,000 from the button, leaving himself just 60,000 behind. Buhaiov and Szwarcberg both quickly folded, then Kim shoved and exposed his cards, without realizing that Bechahed hadn't yet called. Bechahed knew what he was up against and flicked in his last 60,000 chips.

Sami Bechahed: K♠K♥ All in
Kenneth Kim: K♦J♦

Kim didn't get any help from the 5♦3♣9♥A♥6♥ runout which meant Bechahed more than doubled up, and Kim's stack had a big hole in it.

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Alex Keating raised to 250,000 in early position before Nevan Chang moved all in for around 800,000 in the small blind. Keating called to put him at risk.

Nevan Chang: 9♠9♥ All in
Alex Keating: 10♥10♣

Chang was dominated by Keating's better pair as the board ran out Q♠6♦2♣4♦J♠, sending Chang to the rail.

The next hand at this table, Tobias Matuschek moved all in for 750,000 from the cutoff and Kyosuke Nagami called on the button.

Tobias Matuschek: K♣8♠ All in
Kyosuke Nagami: A♣7♣

The board ran out 3♠10♥3♦J♦2♥ and Nagami took the pot with his ace-high as Matuschek headed off to the payout desk.

Biao Ding and Arthur Morris were heads-up on a flop of K♠9♣8♠ when Ding bet 500,000 from middle position. Morris called in early position.

The turn was the 2♣ and Ding moved all in, having Morris' remaining 1,200,000 covered.

"Wow," Morris said as he spent several minutes muttering to himself the different possibilities of what Ding could have.

"Punish me, sir," he eventually said, tossing A♠K♥ into the muck. Ding didn't show as he took in the pot.

Griff Uses One Time to Crack Aces

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Nicholas Howard had raised and Jordan Griff then three-bet to 550,000 on the button. The blinds got out of the way and Howard in the cutoff four-bet to 1,100,000. Back on Griff, he moved all-in and was snapped off by Howard with the covering stack.

Jordan Griff: Q♣Q♦ All in
Nicholas Howard: A♣A♠

The A♦J♠7♣ flop seemingly sealed the fate of Griff but he pulled a rabbit out of the hat thanks to the 10♣ turn and K♦ river, as several players at the table gasped an "oh my god" and took out their phones to snap a picture.

Griff doubled for 3,470,000 and cut the stack of Howard in half, who paid off the double without any emotions and a "nice hand".

Several players at the table pointed out that Griff had used his one time with this fortunate escape.
