Two Pairs of Bullets; Two Players Shot Down
Hand #1:
An all in and call were overheard from Table 4 as Tobias Heinsdorf had shoved his last 400,000 or so in from the cutoff and received action from Lior Tal in the small blind.
Tobias Heinsdorf: 
Lior Tal: 
Heinsdorf picked up a pair of kings on the flop 
but that was as close as he would come to cracking Tal's aces as the turn 
and river 
completed the runout with Tal sending Heinsdorf to the payout line just a few minutes after returning from break.
Hand #2:
Another all-in and call was then heard on an adjacent table, with Dmitry Yurasov all in on the button against Jan-Eric Schwippert, who was in the cutoff.
Dmitry Yurasov: 
Jan-Eric Schwippert: 
Much like the hand prior, Yurasov also flopped top pair as the board came 
but would fail to improve any further on the turn 
and river 
to result in his elimination just moments after Heinsdorf's.
Meanwhile, both Tal and Schwippert now find themselves with over 2 million in chips and are among the largest stacks in the room with 30 players remaining.
