Kelly Battles Out the Big Blind
Niveau 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
A player on the button raised to 100,000 and both blinds called, including Daniel Kelly in the big.
The flop came Q♠4♦8♥. Checked to the button, they continued for 80,000. The small blind flat-called while Kelly bumped the bet up to 280,000. The button stepped aside and the small blind called to see a turn.
On the 8♥, Kelly was checked to, allowing him to barrel for an additional 500,000, promoting a fold from his remaining opponent.

Hunichen Comes From Behind
Niveau 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
A player opened to 100,000 in middle position and was called by Chris Hunichen in late position. The player in the cutoff then moved all in, with the button, blinds and original raiser all getting out of the way. Hunichen quickly called with the covering stack to put his opponent at risk.
Cutoff: QxQx
Chris Hunichen: A♦Q♠
Though at risk, the cutoff was well ahead of Hunichen and remained so on the 10♣5♥K♣ flop and 4♥ turn. The J♦ river, however, improved Hunichen to Broadway, allowing him to claim the pot and bounty.

The player under the gun raised to 120,000, Joao Valli, seated directly on their left, called and both the players in middle position and the big blind came along to a board of 6♠10♦A♥.
It was checked to the original raiser, who continued for 175,000. After some time in the tank, Valli opted to raise to 450,000. All remaining players folded. This included the under-the-gun player who spent many minutes in the tank rechecking his cards before folding the A♣ face up.
