Heads-up in a blind versus blind battle, Kayhan Mokri bet 12,500 on a board of 5?K?6?6? and Jean-Noel Thorel called.

"Crazy," Mokri said as he took the pot.

Vieira Leaves Danchev With Crumbs

Level 2 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Dimitar Danchev raised to 2,500 in the cutoff and Mike Watson called in the small blind. Joao Vieira three-bet to 11,500 in the big blind and Danchev four-bet to 25,500.

Watson got out of the way, but Vieira moved all in for around 85,000 and Danchev snap-called.

Joao Vieira: K?K?
Dimitar Danchev: Q?Q?

Vieira had Danchev crushed with his two kings and ended up with a set on the A?7?4?6?K? board to double up and leave Danchev nursing a short stack.

Thomas Boivin and Steve O'Dwyer both reentered after their early bustouts, while Santhosh Suvarna and Quan Zhou have also recently joined the field.

Chidwick Shows Kisacikoglu Kings

Level 2 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

With around 20,000 in the pot on a board of 5?J?8?7?, Stephen Chidwick bet 16,000 from early position and Orpen Kisacikoglu called in the big blind.

The river was the 3? and Chidwick bet 50,000, covering Kisacikoglu's remaining stack. Kisacikoglu burned through multiple time banks before he called for his last 37,000.

Chidwick then showed K?K? and Kisacikoglu's cards quickly hit the muck as he headed for the exit.

O'Dwyer Runs Into Greenwood's Set

Steve O'Dwyer
Steve O'Dwyer

Sam Greenwood raised to 3,000 on the button, Steve O'Dwyer three-bet to 12,500 in the small blind, and Greenwood called.

The flop came 5?K?6? and O'Dwyer continued for 7,000. Greenwood called.

The 2? fell on the turn and O'Dwyer bet 20,000. Greenwood again stuck around to see the 8? river, where O'Dwyer bet 62,000, leaving himself just one red 500 chip behind.

Greenwood moved all in and O'Dwyer tossed in his last chip. Greenwood showed him 5?5? for a set and O'Dwyer mucked A?K? before making his exit.

Thomas Boivin was also recently eliminated after Daniel Dvoress called his river all-in shove with aces and sixes. "Are you disappointed the ace came so you couldn't just call him with a six," tablemate Sam Grafton said.

"I wasn't calling turn to fold river," Dvoress replied.
