Vladimir Minko Eliminated in 10th Place ($164,900)

Livello 27 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Vladimir Minko raised to 1,000,000 from the cutoff and found a caller in Frank Brannan in the big blind before seeing the flop come 2♥7♠9♣.

Brannan checked over to Minko who continued with a bet for 600,000 only to see Brannan reach into his stack and come back out with a check raise to 1,500,000.

Minko paused for a moment but didn't need much time before deciding on jamming for 4,300,000 only to see Branna put in the snap-call to set up a runout with Minko the player at risk.

Vladimir Minko: J♦10♥
Frank Brannan: A♠A♥

Minko quickly got the bad news that Brannan had trapped with aces and would need to hit his gut-shot straight draw or go runner-runner to come from behind and extend his tournament run, but when the board ran out with the 4♠ and 5♠, Minko would be forced to stand up and exit the the tournament in 10th place for $164,900.

Ivan Luca Eliminated in 12th Place ($132,800)

Livello 26 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Action folded to Damian Salas in the small blind who jammed to put Ivan Luca to a decision for his shorter stack. Luca checked his cards and paused briefly before calling off his stack to put himself at risk and send he and Salas to a runout.

Ivan Luca: A♥10♥
Damiam Salas: K♦3♦

Luca was in good shape to lock up a much needed double, but when the flop came down 6♣K♥7♣, that all changed as Luca was now in need of some help to survive.

The turn brought the 5♣ and when the board completed with the K♣ river, Luca stood up to make his exit in 12th place for $132,800.

Livello 25 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Ivan Luca opened to 600,000 in early position and Jun Obara three-bet to 3,000,000 from the cutoff before Arunas Sapitavicius four-bet jammed a stack of around 5,500,000 from the small blind.

Luca then five-bet jammed behind him as Obara called off for around 600,000 more.

Jun Obara: Q♦Q♥
Arunas Sapitavicius: J♣J♦
Ivan Luca: A♣A♥

Luca was a favorite to score a double knockout before a jack in the window on the flop of 7♦3♠J♣ gave Sapitavicius a big lead. Sapitavicius improved to a boat on the 3♥9♦ runout as Obara was eliminated.

Livello 24 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

One hand after losing all but one 25,000 denomination chip, Biao Ding was all in from under the gun. Action folded to Adrian Mateos in the small blind who limped and the big blind checked his option leading to a 10♣A♠10♦ flop.

Mateos led out with a bet worth 250,000 and got a quick call from the big blind before watching as the 5♣ fell on the turn.

Mateos again chose to lead out, this time for 1,000,000. The big blind folded and the cards were put on their backs with one card to come.

Biao Ding: K♦5♠
Adrian Mateos: K♣10♠

Ding quickly saw that he was drawing dead before the meaningless 6♦ peeled off on the river as he stood up to make his exit from the tournament area in 16th place for $90,700.

Biao Ding raised to 400,000 under the gun and Daniel Dvoress moved all in for 1,850,000 in the hijack. Samuel Mullur rejammed the button and Ding folded.

Daniel Dvoress: 5♠5♣
Samuel Mullur: A♣Q♣

The 6♥4♠2♥ flop kept Dvoress in good shape, but the A♥ turn left him needing a three or five to survive. The J♥ landed on the river, however, and Dvoress was eliminated in 18th place for $90,700.
