Niveau 15 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Wing Po Liu moved all in for 495,000 from the cutoff before Martin Kabrhel reshoved from the button. Gab Yong Kim and Orpen Kisacikoglu folded in the blinds.

Wing Po Liu: Q♣9♣
Martin Kabrhel: A♣10♥

Liu was behind but had some hope with his flush draw on the 6♣5♣2♥ flop, and he leapfrogged Kabrhel on the 10♣ turn. However, the 2♣ river gave Kabrhel the nut flush to send Liu to the rail.

frankvisser

Niveau 15 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Santhosh Suvarna opened for 100,000 chips from middle position and the action folded to Leon Sturm on the button, who went all in for 570,000. Suvarna then made the call once it was his turn and the cards were tabled.

Leon Sturm: K♣Q♠
Santhosh Suvarna: A♠7♠

Santhosh took away some of Sturm's outs when he flopped a flush draw on [3s2h6s5]. The 5♣ turn and 6♣ river did not help Sturm either, and he exited from the Diamond High Roller after having played roughly one level.

Niveau 15 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Hyunsup Kim was all in 950,000 after Daniel Dvoress raised. The latter called the shove for the cards to go on their back.

Hyunsup Kim: Ax9x
Daniel Dvoress: AxKx

Dvoress remained best as the board ran out with the 6♣Q♠7♠XxA♠ runout.

The following hand, Nacho Barbero moved jammed from the cutoff for 445,000 and Emil Bise called from the small blind.

Nacho Barbero: J♦10♦
Emil Bise: K♠9♠

Barbero called for diamonds but only one appeared on the K♣5♠3♦ flop, which gave Bise a pair of kings. A second diamond appeared on the 2♦ turn but the 2♥ river confirmed Barbero's exit.

Elsewhere, Stephen Chidwick was eliminated.

frankvisser

Niveau 15 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Ren Lin and Leonard Maue got all of the chips in the middle on a board of 6♣5♠K♦K♠. A huge pot was created, but Maue was the one at risk.

Leonard Maue: 8♠7♠
Ren Lin: A♣Kx

Lin was ahead with his trips, but Maue had a plethora of outs with his open-ender and flush draw. However, the 3♦ river was a brick and Lin scooped the pot, elevating his stack to more than five million chips.

Maue's elimination left the field with 15 players left, and they are now spread across two tables.

Timothy Adams: 10♥10♠
Ben Heath: A♥J♦

Orpen Kisacikoglu moved all in for 790,000 from the cutoff. Santhosh Suvarna called from the button and the blinds folded.

Orpen Kisacikoglu: A♣Q♥
Santhosh Suvarna: 5♥5♣

Kisacikoglu remained ahead on the 10♣6♦10♥ flop and 3♥ turn but the 6♥ river counterfeited his hand for Suvarna to seal the pot and knockout.

Kabrhel threw out a little needle to Kisacikoglu as the latter left the table.

"I have never seen anything like it," said Kabrhel. "It really wasn't his day," he added.

Niveau 18 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

In the cutoff, Francisco Benitez opened to 1,000,000, leaving 60,000 behind. Dvoress put him all in, and Benitez put in his last few chips.

Francisco Benitez: A♠K♣
Daniel Dvoress: A♣5♥

Benitez was ahead and remained so after the K♦6♠5♣ flop, but the 5♦ turn and 5♠ river saw Dvoress improve to quads to seal the knockout.

"Wow," gasped Ren Lin. "That's how you win a tournament."
