Another Two Double Ups

Level 27 : 17,500/35,000, 4,500 ante

Pablo Brito Silva and Nick Petrangelo were flipping for a pot of two million and it was Petrangelo at risk of elimination.

Nick Petrangelo: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Pablo Brito Silva: {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}

The {10-Spades}{3-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs} board gave Petrangelo trips aces and he soared into the lead.

David Peters then got it in ahead with {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds} against the {7-Spades}{7-Hearts} of Artur Martirosian in a battle cutoff versus big blind. It was a sweat on the {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{9-Hearts} flop but the {2-Spades} turn and {a-Spades} river kept Peters in contention.

Daniels eliminated in three-way all-in

Shawn Daniels: {j-Clubs}{7-Clubs}
"R_uida lin": {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Stephen Chidwick: {a-Hearts}{7-Hearts}

The board ran out {10-Clubs}{4-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{2-Hearts} and Daniels was eliminated in 11th place while Chidwick was left short once more.

Badziakouski Loses Three All-In In a Row

Level 26 : 15,000/30,000, 3,500 ante

Mikita Badziakouski: {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}

Eelis P?rssinen Eliminated in 13th Place ($43,864)

Level 25 : 12,500/25,000, 3,000 ante
P?rssinen vs Peters
P?rssinen vs Peters

Artur Martirosian min-raised to 50,000 and Eelis P?rssinen three-bet jammed for the final 196,177 on the button. David Peters squeezed to 550,000 in the small blind and Martirosian folded.

Eelis P?rssinen: {a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
David Peters: {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

The {q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} flop left P?rssinen in desperate shape and the {9-Hearts} turn left the Finn drawing dead, which made the {9-Diamonds} on the river a mere formality.
