Dong Chen opened to 120,000 from under the gun and Jin Hoon Lee moved all in for his last 450,000 from the big blind. Chen made the call with a covering stack to put Lee at risk.

Jin Hoon Lee: K♦J♦
Dong Chen: A♣8♦

Chen was ahead preflop and remained so on the Q♣8♣7♦ flop. The 10♠ gave Lee some more outs but the 3♠ river was a blank and Lee was sent to the rail while Chen scored another final table knockout.

a_sad_goat

Niveau 18 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

With two players seeing a board of K♣10♣3♦ and roughly 100,000 in the middle, Ricardo Caridade checked in the big blind and Jean-Noel Thorel bet 50,000 from the button. Caridade raised to 195,000, leaving only 6,000 behind, and Jean-Noel Thorel moved all in with a covering stack.

Caridade stalled for several minutes while watching the other table as there was a pay jump that he would make should a bustout occur at the other table. After stalling for a few minutes a player called the clock and shortly after Caridade called off to put himself at risk.

Ricardo Caridade: 7♣3♣
Jean-Noel Thorel: K♠2♠

Caridade needed a club, three or seven to preserve his tournament life but none came on the 2♥ turn or A♥ river and he was sent to the rail without making the pay jump he was aiming for while Thorel collected the last of his chips.

Daan Mulders: Ax8x
Chinwei Lim: Kx2x

Niveau 17 : 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

In a preflop confrontation, Luis Faria found himself all in and at risk for roughly 200,000 against Thomas Santerne who covered.

Luis Faria: A♥K♥
Thomas Santerne: 7♣7♦

The board ran out 6♠8♣5♠9♠K♦. Faria's king on the river was meaningless as Santerne had turned a straight, leaving Faria drawing dead. Faria was sent to the rail while Santerne continued to add chips to his already sizable stack.

Niveau 16 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

With two players seeing a board of 10♠7♥6♥ and roughly 160,000 in the middle, Rui Ferreira checked from under the gun and Jean-Noel Thorel bet 100,000 from the cutoff. Ferreira made the call.

Thorel bet 100,000 again when checked to on the A♦ turn and once again Ferreira made the call.

The river was the 9♥. Ferreira lead out by going all in for 265,000. Thorel quickly called.

Ferreira tabled A♠9♠ for two pair but Thorel turned over A♥10♥ for a slightly better two pair to take down a colossal pot, surpassing two million chips in the process.

Niveau 16 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

With two players seeing a board of 4♥A♥8♣6♣K♠ and roughly 300,000 already in the middle, Brandon Wilson had bet 150,000 from the small blind only for Jean-Noel Thorel to move all in from the big blind, covering Wilson's remaining stack of roughly 110,000.

Wilson thought about his decision for about 90 seconds before making the call and tabling A♦9♦ for top pair. Thorel showed down A♣K♣ for two pair to take down a sizable pot and send Wilson to the rail.

Niveau 15 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

In a preflop confrontation Yuri Dzivielevski was all in for 102,000 on the button and called by Sergi Reixach from under the gun who held a covering stack.

Yuri Dzivielevski: K♣J♣
Sergi Reixach: 9♣9♦

The board ran out J♦9♥10♠J♥Q♠. Dzivielevski's king-high straight was no good against Reixach's full house and he was sent to the rail two spots away from making the money.
