Rania Nasreddine raised to 40,000 in the cutoff with K♦J♥ and was three-bet to 110,000 by Jianwei Lin on the button, who played 7♥7♦. The flop fell 4♥2♣J♦, on which Nasreddine check-called Lin's bet of 90,000.

Lin put in 100,000 additional chips on the 10♦, which Nasreddine check-called again. The 5♣ river was quickly checked by both, and Nasreddine took down the pot with her top pair.

Livello 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Action was on the flop on a board of 2♥9♦5♦ and Yunkyu Song checked. Harry Lodge bet 100,000 and Song called.

The turn was the Q♠ and Song checked again. Lodge doubled his flop bet, making it 200,000 to go. Song made the call again.

The river was the 9♥ and Song switched to a lead for 450,000. It didn't take long for Lodge to make the call. Song showed 8♠5♠ for a pair of fives that he'd turned into a bluff, while Lodge flipped over J♣9♣ for trip nines to win a huge pot and chip up to close to 3.5 million.

Livello 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Aliaksandr Shylko made it 40,000 to go in the hijack with Q♥J♣. Fabiano Kovalski called on the button with A♦10♠ and Stephen Song defended his big blind with A♣6♣.

The 3♣6♥A♥ flop saw Shylko continue for 40,000 after Song had checked. Kovalski bumped that up to 140,000 with his top pair, after which Song three-bet to 325,000.

Shylko quickly folded his queen-high but Kovalski stuck around and called. The 6♠ turn upgraded Song to a full house. He used a time bank before slowplaying and checking to Kovalski.

Kovalski quickly checked back to see the 9♠ appear on the river. Song spent another time extension and fired 275,000 in the middle thereafter.

Kovalski called it off but saw the bad news at showdown and added his cards to the muck. Song, meanwhile, soared even higher up the ranks and ended up with more than 4,000,000 in chips.

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

There were already around 350,000 chips in the pot on a board of K♣4♥7♥Q♥ when Yurii Zabrodotskyi bet 110,000. Nolan Madene was the only other played in the pot and he called.

The 10♦ completed the board on the river and Zabrodotskyi shoved, which left Madene with the decision for his stack of around 400,000. Madene used some extra time as he tried to piece together the puzzle, and eventually settled on a call.

Zabrodotskyi showed 5♥3♥ for a turned flush and Madene flipped A♥J♣ for a rivered straight with the nut-flush blocker, which meant the Frenchman was eliminated.

Livello 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Lauri Varonen raised to 45,000 in middle position and was three-bet to 130,000 by Tomasz Krzesinski in the small blind.

Varonen called to see the 8♥7♠3♥ flop and then called a bet of 90,000 from Krzesinski.

On the A♠ turn, Krzesinski used a time bank before placing a bet of 100,000. Varonen thought briefly and then called again.

The river completed the board with the 8♦. Krzesinski used another time bank before checking. Varonen thought for a bit and then checked back.

Krzesinski revealed A♣10♥ for a turned pair of aces that finished with aces and eights. Varonen looked unimpressed as he mucked his hand, sending the pot across the table.
