Livello 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

In a preflop confrontation Jason Berilgen was all in from the button for 1,775,000 and up against Farid Jattin who had him covered.

Jason Berilgen: K♦K♥Q♥3♣ All in
Farid Jattin: A♠A♥Q♣J♥

Berilgen was in rough shape against Jattin's aces and found no help on the 2♠8♠8♥ flop. The J♠ turn changed nothing but the K♠ river gave Berilgen a full house.

"Oh my god. I'm never this lucky" Berilgen commented as he dragged in a full double up.

When the A♥ hit the river, both players tapped the table.

Vieira tabled 10♥9♥5♦4♣, backing into a ten-high flush, and Jattin flashed the 7♥5♥, showing a flopped straight that made a smaller flush.

Livello 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Bryce Yockey raised 250,000 in early position and Joao Vieira, Joao Simao, and Paul Radcliffe all made the call.

The dealer spread a flop of J♣7♥5♥ and Radcliffe jammed his last 595,000 into the middle. Yockey thought about it for about a minute while eying the other players' stacks before announcing a pot-sized raise. Vieira quickly folded, but Simao pushed his stack of about 2,700,000 across the line and all three hands were tabled.

Paul Radcliffe: Q♦J♥8♣3♥ All in
Joao Simao: 5♣5♦4♣4♦ All in
Bryce Yockey: K♦10♥9♥8♥

It was an action flop as everyone caught a piece, but the 10♠ turn gave Bryce the best hand as he made a jack-high straight. The 2♣ river changed nothing, sending Radcliffe out in eighth place and Simao out in seventh place.

Joao Vieira opened to 250,000 from the button and received calls from Joao Simao in the small blind and Farid Jattin in the big blind.

The flop came K♦7♠7♦. Simao checked, Jattin bet 105,000 and both opponents called.

Jattin bet again for 340,000 when checked to on the 8♠ turn and this time it was enough to force a fold from both opponents.

When the A♠K♥K♣ flop hit the felt, Yockey continued for 400,000 and that was enough to drag the pot.
