Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Anton Wigg
Anton Wigg

Anton Wigg, Artsiom Lasouski, and Fahredin Mustafov checked to the turn on a board of Q?5?4?8?. Action then checked around to Wigg who bet 65,000 on the button.

Lasouski called in the small blind, while Mustafov raised to 220,000 in the big blind. Wigg called and Lasouski got out of the way.

The river was the 3? and Mustafov checked. Wigg then bet 340,000 and Mustafov quickly called.

Wigg showed Q?8? for two pair and Mustafov mucked as Wigg took the big pot to eclipse the 2,000,000-chip mark.

Another Case of Death by Quads

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Guillermo Gordo
Guillermo Gordo

Damir Zhugralin opened to 40,000 from under the gun before Guillermo Gordo three-bet to 140,000 from the small blind. Zhugralin used up a time bank before jamming as the big stack. Gordo, who started with 560,000, called for his tournament life.

Guillermo Gordo: A?K?All in
Damir Zhugralin: J?J?

The coin flip landed in Zhugralin's favor as the J?J?9? flop gave the Kazakh player quads to leave Gordo drawing dead. The 3? turn and 4? river completed the board and Gordo departed.

Andrea Dato
Andrea Dato

Chakib Mhiri raised to 30,000 in the cutoff and Andrea Dato three-bet to 90,000 on the button. Mhiri then four-bet to 280,000 and Dato moved all in for 625,000.

Mhiri took a minute before folding as Dato took the last pot before break.

At the same time at another table, Artem Kotkovskyi was all in for 225,000 from the hijack and up against Fahredin Mustafov in the cutoff.

Artem Kotkovskyi: 9?9? All in
Fahredin Mustafov: Q?Q?

Ivan Zabiiakin
Ivan Zabiiakin

Ranno Sootla was all-in for 550,000 from the small blind and up against Ivan Zabiiakin in the cutoff.

Ranno Sootla: A?A? All in
Ivan Zabiiakin: 10?10?

Sootla showed down aces and was poised for a double up, but Zabiiakin hit top set on the 10?7?3? flop. The rest of the board ran out 5?6? to secure the pot for Zabiiakin.

The stacks had to be counted down and Zabiiakin narrowly had Sootla covered, sending him to the rail.

Kashani Flops Tamm Dead

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Taago Tamm
Taago Tamm

Stefan Toderita raised to 30,000 in the cutoff before Taago Tamm three-bet to 125,000 in the small blind. Arian Kashani then moved all in from the big blind and Toderita buried his face in his hands before folding, while Tamm quickly called for 500,000.

Taago Tamm: A?K? All in
Arian Kashani: Q?Q?

"Good luck," Tamm told Kashani as they prepared for the flop to come in the classic coin flip situation.

"Don't say good luck," Damir Zhugralin added.

"F**k it, I already said it. Okay, I'm canceling it," Tamm said. The flop proved a disaster for Tamm, as Kashani hit quads on Q?Q?5?. The rest of the board ran out 4?10? and Tamm was sent to the rail.

Kamphues Bombs the River on Shcherbakov

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Kirill Shcherbakov
Kirill Shcherbakov

Timo Kamphues bet 25,000 from the cutoff on a flop of 9?6?4? and Kirill Shcherbakov raised to 85,000 in early position. Kamphues called and the J? fell on the turn.

Shcherbakov checked and Kamphues bet 150,000. Shcherbakov just called this time to see the 2? river. Kamphues then bet 550,000.

Shcherbakov had around the same amount remaining and tanked for nearly five minutes, burning through multiple time banks as the minutes continued to tick by. "Okay, I fold," he eventually said, sliding his cards back to the dealer as Kamphues took the pot without a showdown.

Khorchidian Gets it in Good, Lyubovetskiy Improves on Turn and River

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Nichan Khorchidian
Nichan Khorchidian

On a flop of 8?J?10?, Nichan Khorchidian had committed his stack of around 250,000 to the pot, and had been put at risk by Ukraine's Andriy Lyubovetskiy.

Nichan Khorchidian: Q?10? All in
Andriy Lyubovetskiy: A?7?

Both had flopped flush draws, but it was Khorchidian who held the lead with his pair of tens and was the favorite to double up. However, things took a turn for the worst for Khorchidian on the A? turn, as Lyubovetskiy improved to top pair. Only a king, queen, ten, or a nine could save Khorchidian, and despite improving to a flush on the 4? river, Lyubovetskiy's flush was bigger.

Jackson and James Joust

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Bobby James
Bobby James

Daniel Jackson opened in middle position for 30,000. The action folded to Bobby James in the big blind, who called. James check-called Jackson's bet of 25,000 on the 2?A?7? flop as well as the 110,000 he put in on the Q? turn.

The 4? then fell on the river. Jackson completed his triple barrel with a pot-sized bet of 360,000. James pondered a call as he tossed in a time bank. Eventually, he gathered the required chips and put them in the middle.

Jacosn tabled 5?5? for a pair of fives. James showed down 8?7? for a daring call with a pair of sevens. He collected the large pot and crossed the three-million mark as a result of his heroisms.
