Level 17 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Ravi Sheth raised to 10,000 in middle position before Chris Da-Silva three-bet to 28,000 in the cutoff. Sheth then moved all in, and Da-Silva snap-called for 160,000.

Chris Da-Silva: K♦K♥ All in
Ravi Sheth: A♠4♠

Da-Silva was a big favorite to double up with his kings, but he needed to dodge a straight draw after the flop came 5♥3♣Q♥. The 2♣ turn gave Sheth the wheel, and Da-Silva was drawing dead by the 10♠ river and headed to the exit.

Level 17 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Liviu Bartha three-bet to 25,000 in the big blind before Mitchell Johnson moved all in from the hijack. Bartha snap-called.

Liviu Bartha: K♦K♣ All in
Mitchell Johnson: A♦K♠

Bartha had woken up with kings and left Johnson looking for an ace. The 7♦3♥2♠ flop was safe for Bartha, while the 4♥ turn also gave Johnson outs to a straight. Johnson hit the 5♠ on the river to make his straight.

"Not like that!" tablemate Mariusz Czech said, doing his best Martin Kabrhel impression.

The stacks were counted down and Johnson had Bartha's remaining 110,000 covered by just 500, earning him the knockout.
