Niveau 32 : Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante

Kemal Aslan moved all in for 1,125,000, from the cutoff. Dumitru Pora called, on the button.

Kemal Aslan: A♠10♦
Dumitru Pora: K♥K♣

The dealer brought some hope as the window card came the A♥. Unfortunately for Aslan, the K♦10♣ followed quickly behind. The 2♠ turn and 6♥ river landed; Pora's set of kings sent Aslan to the rail.

Mwarburton

Niveau 32 : Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante

Action folded around to Damir Zhugralin, who shoved all in from the small blind. Dylan DeStefano called in the big blind with slightly less chips and players flipped their cards.

Dylan DeStefano: K♥Q♥
Damir Zhugralin: A♠3♣

The board ran out J♦10♣3♦4♥Q♦. The flop gave Zhugralin a pair of threes and brought DeStefano a straight draw along with his overcards. DeStefano then hit a pair of queens on the river to win the pot, leaving Zhugralin with just over one big blind left behind.

The next hand, Dumitru Pora raised to 250,000 and Dmitrii Nazarov three-bet to 600,000 from late position. Zhugralin called all in for 115,000 and Pora moved all in over the top. Nazarov folded and two players turned over their cards.

Damir Zhugralin: 7♦2♦
Dumitru Pora: A♦Q♥

The board ran out 9♥J♣6♥8♦A♣. Zhugralin picked up a straight draw on the turn, but Pora paired his ace on the river to win the pot.

Zhugralin was eliminated from the tournament in ninth place for $27,600.

Hossien Taki Eliminated in 10th Place ($21,250)

OllieGarland

Niveau 31 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Manuel Fischer raised to 240,000 from the button. Hossien Taki, in the big blind, was short and chose to call the bet blind.

Taki still hadn't looked at his cards as he moved all in for 85,000 on the K♥10♣4♠. Fischer called.

Hossien Taki: 6♦5♠
Manuel Fischer: Q♣10♥

The turn and river fell the 8♠ and Q♠ respectively. Fischer's two pair was more than good enough to send Taki to the rail. The remaining nine players are now on the final table.
