Deniz Dogan was all in for 60,000 and at risk versus Pedro Pereira Fonseca.

Deniz Dogan: 6♣6♥ All in
Pedro Pereira Fonseca: K♥K♠

Dogan was in trouble versus an overpair, but salvation came in the form of the 6♠4♠3♦ flop, which gave him top set. Fonseca could not find a king on the 5♦8♠ turn or river to reverse the situation.

Nivel 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Chakib Mhiri raised to 8,000 from middle position and Istvan Toth three-bet to 18,000 from the hijack. Paolo Gualano was on the button and called, and Mhiri also called.

The flop came K♥7♥J♥ where the action checked to Gualano, who fired 34,000. Mhiri folded, and Toth called.

A 7♠ dropped on the turn and again Toth checked, then Gualano kept up the pressure with a bet of 50,000. Toth called again.

When the 4♣ landed on the river, both players checked it down and Toth's A♥A♣ was good for the pot as Gualano mucked.

Brandon Sheils got his chips in from the small blind on a flop of J♥10♣9♣ and was called by Akin Tuna in the big blind.

Brandon Sheils: 8♠7♠ All in
Akin Tuna: K♣Q♥

Both players had flopped a straight, but Tuna had the nuts. The A♦ turn prevented any chops from happening, and the A♠ river was dealt as Sheils stood up and headed to the payout desk.

Nivel 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Action folded to Timur Kurbanov on the button, who moved all in for 50,000, and was looked up by Adrien Quetelart in the small blind.

Timur Kurbanov: A♣K♥ All in
Adrien Quetelart: A♠J♥

Kurbanov looked in great shape for the double-up with a dominating ace, but the Q♠J♠7♣ flop put Quetelart in front with a pair if of jacks.

Kurbanov now needed to find a ten or a king, but the Q♦6♣ turn and river were bricks to send him to the rail in unfortunate fashion.

Nivel 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

The action folded around to Radoslav Stoyanov in the small blind, who shoved, and Scott Hall called off his stack of around 50,000 from the big blind.

Scott Hall: A♣7♣ All in
Radoslav Stoyanov: A♥5♣

Hall was in the lead, but fell behind on the 5♥9♣J♦ flop as Stoyanov improved to a pair of fives. The 9♥ did bring a few chop outs, but the river wasn't the card Hall was looking for, which meant he was eliminated.

Nivel 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

The action was caught on a completed board of 6♠J♣A♣4♠J♠. A gigantic pot of 275,000 had already been gathered when Ali Al-Kubasi bet 120,000 from under the gun.

His opponent was Fahredin Mustafov, who raised all in, covering Al-Kubasi's total stack of 255,000. Al-Kubasi spent some minutes in the tank before the clock was called.

During the final five seconds of his countdown, he slammed in a call. Mustafov showed A♦J♦ for a full house.

Al-Kubasi's A♥6♥ for two pair, aces and jacks, was shown by the dealer as he took his exit and picked up his min-cash.

Lander Lijo opened the hijack to 8,000 and Shankui Li three-bet the cutoff to 25,000. When the action got back to Lijo, he called.

The flop came 10♥3♥3♦ and Lijo check-called a bet of 35,000 from Li to the 2♣ turn. Lijo checked for a second time, then Li shoved. Lijo quickly folded with 125,000 behind.

Nivel 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Samuel Fournier raised to 50,000 in the hijack, leaving himself 10,000 behind. Mihai Niste then jammed all in with a covering stack in the seat next to him, after which the action folded back to Fournier.

After a couple of minutes and a clarification of the rules, Fournier called and both hands were revealed.

Samuel Fournier: Q♥Q♦ All in
Mihai Niste: A♥K♥

It was a classic race. Fournier stayed ahead with his queens on the 8♣9♥8♦ flop but the 3♥ turn brought a flush draw for Niste's ace-king.

The river was ordered to be dealt, prompting the 5♥ to appear on the felt. Niste had made his flush to eliminate Fournier as the official bubble boy of the Main Event.

The remaining 191 players were all in the money and the room exploded in celebratory applause before play continued.
