Livello 9 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Thomas Santerne opened from the cutoff to 7,500. Elton Ostreni called in the small blind before Ren Lin moved all in for 16,000.

Santerne confirmed with the dealer as to whether he can rejam to isolate Lin's chips. The dealer confirmed and Santerne subsequently moved all in, covering both players. Ostreni tanked for a moment before finding the fold. Lin asked the players not to "snap-call" his all-in.

Ren Lin: J♠J♥ All in
Thomas Santerne: A♦10♦

Lin was in good shape over the 8♣7♣6♣ flop but Santerne spiked the A♠ on the turn. His top pair held on the 7♥ river to bust Lin.

Shortly afterwards, on an adjacent table, Tom Vogelsang was also eliminated.

Livello 8 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Action folded around to Gerard Pique who raised from the small blind to 5,000. Jules Dickerson made it 16,000 from the big blind.

Pique took a moment before four-betting all in for around 80,000. Dickerson quickly called as the covering stack.

Gerard Pique: 2♠2♦ All in
Jules Dickerson: K♣K♥

Pique needed to find a deuce to stay alive but the K♦10♣8♦ flop gave Dickerson top set and left Pique drawing to runner runner quads. His exit was confirmed on the 6♠ and the 10♥ river was merely a formality for the former Barcelona star. He tapped the table and departed the tournament area.

Livello 8 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Mike Watson opened from under the gun to 5,500. Action folded around to Sam Greenwood who called on the button. Thomas Santerne defended the big blind.

The 7♠K♣6♠ flop was checked around. Another round of knuckles ensued on the A♣ turn and the same again on the 8♣ river. Santerne tabled 8♠3♠ for a pair and missed flush draw. However it was Watson's holding of 9♣9♦ that was good enough to take the pot. Greenwood mucked his holding.
