Level 7 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Ren Lin, Anton Suarez and Filip Lovric were all-in preflop with Johansson having both players covered and Lin having the shortest stack.

Ren Lin: A♠A♥Q♠3♣
Filip Lovric: J♦10♦8♥6♥
Anton Suarez: K♦K♣Q♥9♥

Lin held the best of it with his aces, but the 3♠Q♦5♥6♣K♥ runout spiked Suarez’s kings on the river — providing him with a winning set as he celebrated his good fortune.

Lin was eliminated following the hand and Lovric was left with just 12,000.

Level 7 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Aibek Lekerov opened to 3,000 from early position and was called by Arturo Paduano in the cutoff and Jakob Madsen on the button. Duarte Baptista then squeezed to 16,200 from the small blind, which got a fold from Lekerov, but a call from both Paduano and Madsen for a three-way pot.

Baptista checked to Paduano on the 9♦J♣9♣ flop and he bet 15,000. Madsen called and Baptista folded.

The 6♠ came on the turn and Paduano shoved for a bit over 70,000. Madsen quickly folded and Paduano added the sizable pot to his stack.

Level 8 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Jose Manuel Planells opened to 3,500 from under the gun and Ren Lin, now on his fourth bullet, called from middle position. Omar Eljach three-bet to 13,800 from the cutoff and Planells made the call. Lin declared pot, Eljach five-bet shoved, Planells got out of the way and Lin called off with a total stack of 107,200 to put himself at risk.

Ren Lin: 10♠8♠7♦4♦
Omar Eljach: A♣Q♣J♥10♦

The flop came 10♣6♠5♠ giving Lin both straight and flush outs. The flush came in on the 4♠ turn and after the J♦ river Lin collected a full double up at Eljach's expense.

Meanwhile at another table, Vivian Saliba was recently sent to the rail.

Level 8 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Jakob Madsen opened to 4,500 from early position and was called by Aibek Lekerov in the small blind and Jerry Odeen in the big blind.

All three players checked on the 3♦8♠3♠ flop and then Lekerov led out for 5,000 on the J♦ turn. Only Madsen called.

Lekerov wasn’t done betting and fired 8,000 into the middle when the 3♥ completed the board. Madsen wanted no part of it and quickly folded — sending the pot Lekerov’s way.
