Niveau 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

On a heads-up flop of 3♥6♠5♠, Tiffany Henize led out for 145,000 but then Vincent Laise moved all in for 375,000 total.

After some thought, Henize made the call to put him at risk and the cards were tabled.

Vincent Laise: 8♣8♥
Tiffany Henize: A♥6♥

Laise was ahead at the moment with his over pair of eights, but Henize could still catch any ace, six, or running hearts to win.

Fortunately for Laise, the board ran out 3♠J♦ to secure his victory for the double-up to 1,200,000.

Vincent Laise	1,200,000 535,000	535,000

Niveau 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Three players had all of their chips in the middle with Ashton Nikzad on the button with 320,000 and Karl Moris with 650,000 in the hijack at risk against Thomas Ratkovich in the cutoff who covered both players.

Ashton Nikzad: Q♦9♦
Karl Moris: A♥10♥
Thomas Ratkovich: A♠A♦

Ratkovich was in a dominant position, but the flop of 9♥7♣5♠ produced some light for Nikzad by pairing a nine.

The K♠ turn left Moris drawing dead, but the Q♠ river gave Nikzad two pair and completed a triple up. Moris headed to the exit and Ratkovich gathered in the 660,000 side pot.

Niveau 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

On a heads-up completed board of 2♣6♦J♣J♠A♦, there was around 450,000 in the middle when Chunlung Wong led out for 50,000 from late position.

His opponent in the hijack, Lester Edoc, then announced he was all in, covering Wong.

Wong then went deep into the tank for several minutes, at which point a player called the clock on him and he was given 30 seconds to act.

As his timer reached zero, Wong made the call and was shown K♦Q♠ for king-high by Edoc while he proudly turned over A♥Q♦ for top two-pair.

"Wow, 100% you're never folding there!" Tablemate Frederic Normand commented, "You have top pair!"

Chunlung Wong	1,250,000 875,000	875,000

Niveau 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Adam Kharman, whose 2,500,000 stack to Day 3 was the largest at his table, raised in middle position. He watched as Daniel Blum, who began the day as a short stack, moved all in to put his tournament life on the line.

Kharman quickly called when the action made its way back to him.

Daniel Blum: 9♠9♥
Adam Kharman: K♦J♦

The dealer fanned 3♦4♦3♣ on the flop and 4♣ on the turn, but J♣ arrived on the river to give Kharman the hand and send Blum to the rail.

Niveau 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Short-stacked Jason Acosto moved all in preflop for a little over 100,000 and was called by Andrew Brinkley to put him at risk.

Jason Acosta: K♥Q♠
Andrew Brinkley: J♠10♥

The turn of 3♣9♣6♠J♦ gave Brinkley the lead with his pair of jacks, and the river 10♣ improved him to two pair, but it also gave Acosta a straight to take down the pot for a double-up.

"Nice!" Brinkley congratulated his opponent, "I only wanted one pair, not two!"

Joueur	Jetons	Progression
Andrew Brinkley	775,000 320,000	320,000
Jason Acosta	240,000 75,000	75,000

Niveau 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

On a heads-up turn board of 8♦2♣9♠6♦, there was around 225,000 in the middle when Tony Miles in the small blind led out for 75,000. The action was then on Fausto Valdez in the cutoff who paused for a second before deciding to move all in, covering Miles.

Miles sat there and thought about it for a good 15 seconds before he decided the best option was to let it go and the pot was awarded to Valdez.
