Level 27 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Peter Zarriello opened to 170,000 from the cutoff and Arie Praisman then three-bet to 425,000. Zarriello thought for a moment but in the end, he fired ina four-bet of 1,700,000.

Praisman hit the tank and counted his chips. Ultimately he elected to foud and Zarriello said, "One time ok, but two times no good."

"Maybe three times though," laughed Zarriello as he pulled in the pot.

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Arie Praisman opened and Gary Gelman moved all in for 1,165,000. Praisman called and the two tabled their hands, revealing the same two cards.

Gary Gelman: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}
Arie Praisman: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}

The two players were almost guaranteed a split pot, but then the dealer spread out {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{6-Spades} on the flop and Gelman flopped a flush. A {k-Hearts} on the turn averted any possible straight flush outs and Gelman now had Praisman drawing dead to the {q-Hearts} river card. Gelman took down the pot for a complete double, moving him to the top of the leader board.
