Livello 20 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Ertan Cicekdemir opened to 20,000 from under the gun and Ilie Smintanca-Januszewski made the call on the button. Michael Gehrmann then three-bet to 52,000 in the small blind.

Cicekdemir responded with a four-bet to 150,000, resulting in a fold from Smintanca-Januszewski and a call from Gehrmann.

The flop of 2♣7♣A♦ saw Gehrmann check, with Cicekdemir firing 75,000. Gehrmann then raised all in and the call was made.

Michael Gehrmann: A♠A♣
Ertan Cicekdemir: A♥K♦

Gehrmann's set of aces was in great shape ahead of Cicekdemir's top pair, with the Q♥6♣ runout cementing a massive double up.

Livello 20 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

A double elimination was announced for table eight and Ilija Savevski as well as Dennis Jung grabbed their belongings, while the chips were pushed to Andrzej Jedryczka.

According to Savevski, he got it in via three-bet shove with pocket tens and Jung had pocket nines. They were well covered by Jedryczka, who flipped with the A♥K♣. The A♣A♦3♦3♣2♦ runout left both shorter stacks drawing dead on the turn.

Moments later, Jared Strauss departed from one table over after losing a flip for the last eleven blinds with ace-king versus pocket tens.
