Level 15
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 1,250 ante
All the chips went in the middle preflop between "sergebezb" and "1nallingyo", who was the player at risk.
"1nallingyo": 
"sergebezb": 
It was a flip situation and when the flop came 
, it was clean for the tens of "sergebezb". The turn however changed things when the 
rolled off and the 
hit the river to secure the full double up for "1nallingyo".

: Blinds 4,500/9,000, 1,100 ante
In a heads-up pot with 121,300 in the middle on a flop of 
, Elias "SinKarma" Gutierrez checked from early position and Sam "SamSquid" Grafton bet out 27,000 in the cutoff, which Gutierrez called.
On the

river. Gutierrez decided to lead out for 112,500 and without much thought, Grafton moved all in, covering the 117,980 behind for Gutierrez, who made the call.
Grafton tabled 
for top set and Gutierrez revealed 
for top pair but not enough to stay alive.

Mustapha "lasagnaaammm" Kanit: 
Kanit was in need of a jack but when the board ran out 
, the queens for Vousden held up to score the full double up.
