Noah Boeken Eliminated in 17th Place ($47,600)

Livello 18 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Noah Boeken raised to 210,000 from under the gun with fewer than that behind. Nikolaos Lampropoulos in the big blind eyeballed his table neighbour for a couple of seconds and reraised, Boeken called all-in.

Noah Boeken: Q♠Q♥4♣4♠
Nikolaos Lampropoulos: A♣7♠7♣5♣

The J♦7♦7♥ flop left Boeken on the verge of elimination as Lampropoulos made quads, as the Dutchman suddenly went from favourite to needing the two remaining queens in the deck. It was all over on the 3♥ turn to make the 10♦ river a formality.

Livello 18 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Dan Shak limped in early position before Yuri Dzivielevski limped the cutoff. It was then on Nick Schulman in the small blind who potted it and Shak folded. Dzivielevski took a moment and then opted to come along and see a flop.

The 4♣7♣10♥ flop hit and Schulman moved in. Dzivielevski snap called.

Nick Schulman: A♣A♦3♥2♦
Yuri Dzivielevski: A♥J♥9♣8♠

The A♠ turn would bring it home for Schulman and the K♥ was a blank. Schulman scooped.
