Flush over Flush Collision
Livello 14
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
With two players seeing a board of 9♠6♦9♥5♥8♥ and roughly 67,000 in the middle, Shuang Luo had bet 32,000 only for Candido Cappiello to raise it to 95,000, sending Luo deep into the tank.
After a couple minutes a player at the table called the clock and with just ten seconds remaining Luo flicked in a call.
Luo tabled 10♥7♥ for a flush but Cappiello showed down A♥2♥ for an ace-high flush to take down a massive pot.

Hrabec Pays Off Yang
Livello 13
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
With two players seeing a board of 8♥9♥A♠Q♥3♠ and roughly 90,000 already in the middle, Peng Yang bet 93,000 from the hijack. Roman Hrabec, seated in the cutoff, went into the tank.
After roughly two minutes Hrabec flicked in a call. Yang tabled J♥10♣ for a queen-high straight which was good enough to take down a massive pot while making a serious dent in Hrabec's stack.
Elsewhere in the tournament area, Nina Krasilnikova was recently eliminated.

Luo Building a Monster Stack
Livello 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Shuang Luo opened to 6,500 from the cutoff and received calls from Aleksandr Kirichenko on the button and Igor Pihela in the big blind.
The flop came 7♠7♥4♦. Pihela checked, Luo bet 6,000, Kirichenko called and Pihela folded.
Both remaining players checked the 8♥ turn leading to the 9♠ river. Luo bet 50,000 into a pot of roughly 30,000. Kirichenko thought about his decision for about 90 seconds before folding and Luo took down a nice pot without showdown.
Luo currently holds one of the largest chip stacks in the room, worth over 150 big blinds.
