Niveau 30 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Jamie Kerstetter was able to pick up a few pots on the short stack, but was again down to 3,600,000 for a five-to-one chip deficit on her final hand.

Kerstetter limped on the button and Shiina Okamoto checked her option.

The flop came 10♠A♣9♦. Okamoto check-called a bet of 200,000 chips by Kerstetter.

The turn was the 5♥. Okamoto checked again and Kerstetter bet 550,000. Okamoto took a moment and then went all in. Kerstetter fairly quickly called.

Jamie Kerstetter: A♦7♥ All in
Shiina Okamoto: 9♠5♦

Kerstetter limped with an ace and flopped top pair, while Okamoto flopped bottom pair and turned two. Kerstetter could still improve to better two pair or trips on some rivers, but it was not meant to be, as the 2♥ rolled off instead, ending her impressive deep run in the tournament in second place.

Niveau 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

After being down under six big blinds and then doubling up, Ceci Liao was able to chip up to over 2,000,000 with a few preflop pick-ups and a hand she played against Shiina Okamoto.

On her final hand, she had 2,240,000 to start. Jamie Kerstetter opened to 200,000 from the button. Liao was in the small blind and three-bet to 850,000. Shiina Okamoto was in the big blind and shoved all in. Kerstetter folded and Liao called.

Ceci Liao: Q♥Q♠ All in
Shiina Okamoto: K♦K♣

Liao was at the wrong end of a cooler, and the flop K♠7♥4♥ left her with very little hope. She would need running queens or hearts to win the hand, but the 3♠ on the turn had her drawing dead.

Niveau 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Linda Durden has been eliminated in the following three hands:

According to her husband and biggest fan Don, Durden is a die-hard poker fan and watches every PokerGO stream she can. She vocally spoke about more women entering the field and is determined to play more poker in the future.

On the first hand competitor Ceci Liao doubled up through Durden with almost equal stacks but Liao was at risk. Liao raised on the button to 210,000 and Durden flat called from the big blind. The flop came out with 9♠4♥8♦ and Durden announced all in and Liao made the quick call.

Ceci Liao: K♥K♠ All in
Linda Durden: K♣J♣

Although most of the rail cheered for a ten for the gut shot straight, the board did not give it and Liao doubled her stack. This left Durden with 1 big blind. The turn Q♦ and A♥ on the river did not change the result.
On the second hand:

Durden was all in with 1bb and the crowd shouted, "Linda, Linda, Linda, chip and a chair", the loudest one being her husband.

Linda Durden: 6♥3♠ All in
Jamie Kerstetter: A♠5♦

The board came out with 9♣7♥Q♣3♣K♠ and Durden doubled up and stayed alive with her pair of threes.

On the final hand Durden was eliminated by Kerstetter.

Linda Durden: 9♥9♦ All in
Jamie Kerstetter: A♦7♦

Durden called for a nine but it did not come and a massive boo was heard on the rail when the flop opened up with an ace. The official board was 3♠A♣6♠K♥2♠ and Durden made her exit with a positive handshake for all the ladies.

After Linda's exit and many hands later, the rail were still cheering, "We want Linda".

Niveau 27 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Action folded to Cecile Ticherfatine sitting on the button. She only had 910,000 chips, a bit over 11 big blinds, to start the hand and decided to go all in.

Jamie Kerstetter was in the small blind and asked for a count. She then decided to reraise all in. The big blind folded and Ticherfatine was at risk.

Cecile Ticherfatine: K♣J♠ All in
Jamie Kerstetter: K♥Q♦

The flop came 10♠3♦8♦, changing nothing. However, the turn J♦ was one of the most dramatic cards that could have come, giving Ticherfatine the advantage with a pair of jacks and Kerstetter a flush draw and the open-ender to go along with her queen.

The river came the K♦, completing Kerstetter's flush and Ticherfatine was eliminated.
