Livello 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Nacho Barbero had run his second nut flush into the nut flush of Wouter Beltz some hands prior and then found himself heads up against Mihai Niste on a flop of 9♠5♣2♥.

Niste checked in middle position to Barbero in the cutoff. Barbero bet 7,500 into the pot of 21,000 and saw his opponent call.

The 9♥ turn paired the board and was checked by both players before Niste made a bet of 30,000 on the 4♣ river, nearly his entire stack.

Barbero played around the same amount and spent one time bank before folding his cards and diving under the starting stack.

Livello 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Igor Yaroshevskyy from the hijack and Chin Wei Lim from the big blind were involved in a large pot with around 70,000 in the middle on the river.

On a completed board of Q♠3♠2♠10♣5♣, Lim jammed for 59,500, which sent Yaroshevskyy deep into the tank. He used five time bank cards before he finally put in the call. He got the bad news as Lim tabled A♠J♠ for the flopped nut flush and Yaroshevskyy mucked. Lim collected a massive pot at the expense of the crippled Yaroshevskyy.

Yaroshevskyy was eliminated the following hand.
