Niveau 28 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Siegfried Kapeller made it 160,000 from early position and Danut Chisu called with 6♥5♥ from middle position. Siarhei Alontsau then shoved the button for 3,265,000, and Kapeller called off his stack of 1,530,000. Chisu quickly folded.

Siegfried Kapeller: J♦J♣ All in
Siarhei Alontsau: K♥K♦

Kapeller was way behind to the Cowboys of Alontsau and was at serious risk of being the first player eliminated on the final table. The dealer put out a flop of 7♥3♠Q♦ was about as dry as it gets for Kapeller, who needed to find a jack to stay alive. The turn brought his wishes, though, as the J♥ rolled off and improved him to a set, which left Alontsau with just two outs. Alontsau couldn't return the favor as the 10♠ completed the board, and Kapeller can thank the poker gods for that one.

Barak Oz made it 160,000 from early position and Siarhei Alontsau shoved for 1,735,000 in middle position. When the action got back to Oz, he made the call.

Siarhei Alontsau: J♠J♣ All in
Barak Oz: 10♥10♣

Alontsau was in the same position moments ago and was two-outed on the turn, but luckily for him, lightning didn't strike twice as the K♥9♦A♦K♦7♥ runout kept his pocket jacks in the lead, and earned him a double-up.
