Niveau 19 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Back-to-back hands have seen Jeffrey Kurtz shoot up the counts with a stack of around 850,000.

In the first hand, a board of J♣4♦8♥3♣Q♦ had around 300,000 chips in it and Kurtz had shoved the river into Nicolas Vayssieres. After around two minutes, Kurtz called the clock on his opponent and during the 30-second countdown, Vayssieres folded.

The next hand that was dealt, John Szczypka raised to 31,000 from early position and Kurtz three-bet the button to 70,000, Szczypka called.

A flop of K♥K♣4♥ was fanned and Szczypka check-shoved all in for around 200,000 over Kurtz's bet, which Kurtz quickly called.

John Szczypka: A♣Q♠ All in
Jeffrey Kurtz: K♦9♦

Szczypka was drawing dead by the turn as the 7♦2♥ runout confirmed his elimination and Kurtz was pushed the pot.

Niveau 19 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Yun Choi and John Parke were involved in back to back hands with each other, with Choi coming out on top.

In the first hand, Choi got it all in preflop with Q♥Q♦ versus Parke's A♦K♥. Choi got the double up when the board ran out QxJx8x6x8x.

The next hand, Choi min-raised from middle position and Parke moved all in for his last 60,000 from the small blind. Choi made the call.

John Parke: A♦9♣ All in
Yun Choi: K♣J♣

Choi improved to trips on the K♦K♥9♥ flop. The 3♣ turn and 10♦ river sent Parke to the rail.
