Level 42
: Blinds 1,500,000/3,000,000, 3,000,000 ante
Christopher Basile raised to 14,000,000 from under the gun, which left him just 2,500,000 behind.
Action folded to Brian Smith in the cutoff, who made the call, as did Matthew Higgins in the small blind.
On the 2♠8♦A♦ flop, it was checked to Smith, who bet out for 4,000,000. Higgins made the call, as did Basile for his tournament life.
Smith and Higgins checked down the 2♥ turn and 10♣ river. Smith tabled 3♠3♦ for two baby pair, Higgins K♠10♠ for kings-up, and Basile 9♦7♦ for air. Higgins was shipped the pot while Basile was sent to the rail in 11th place.

: Blinds 1,500,000/3,000,000, 3,000,000 ante
Action folded to Vincent Lavollee in the cutoff, who moved all in, and Matthew Higgins on the button called. With no other players getting involved, the cards were tabled.
Vincent Lavollee: Q♠J♦
Matthew Higgins: K♣K♦
Lavollee was in need of help from the board, but the runout of 4♥9♠7♦6♥K♥ improved Higgins to a set of kings, ending Lavollee’s run.
Level 42
: Blinds 1,500,000/3,000,000, 3,000,000 ante
Dominik Panka raised to 6,000,000 under the gun and called straight away when Wanda Hallman moved all in for 23,500,000 from the small blind.
Wanda Hallman: 5♥5♣
Dominik Panka: J♦8♦
The 7♥4♥8♥ flop moved Panka into the lead, but Hallman had a world of outs to regain it.
Alas, the 9♣ turn and 9♦ river offered no such help, and Hallman was eliminated in 13th.
Level 42
: Blinds 1,500,000/3,000,000, 3,000,000 ante
David Crafti limped from under the gun, which left him just 1,000,000 behind. Matthew Higgins in the next seat called, as did Brian Smith in late position, Vinay Boob in the small blind, and Vincent Lavollee in the big blind.
The flop came Q♣J♠8♥, and it was checked to Higgins, who bet out for 5,500,000. Smith made the call, but Vinay and Lavollee folded. Crafti tossed in his last 1,000,000 to call.
The active players checked down the 3♦ turn and 5♦ river with Crafti tabling K♠2♦ for king-high, but Higgins tabled J♣10♦ for a pair of Jacks. Smith tabled 9♣5♣ for a pair of fives, but Higgins was pushed the pot, while Crafti was sent to the rail in 14th place.
Level 42
: Blinds 1,500,000/3,000,000, 3,000,000 ante
Action folded to Dominik Panka in the small blind, who went all in, covering Edward Pak in the big blind. Pak snap-called, sending the hand to showdown.
Edward Pak: A♦K♦
Dominik Panka: 3♥3♠
Panka was slightly ahead, but the board ran out 5♣10♣K♥7♠10♥ giving Pak the better pair and a full, much-needed double-up.
Level 42
: Blinds 1,500,000/3,000,000, 3,000,000 ante
David Crafti raised from middle position to 16,000,000 which left himself just 7,000,000 behind. Matthew Higgins made the call from the next seat. The rest of the table folded.
The players checked down the K♥7♦6♥Q♥Xx board with Higgins tabling AxJx to claim the pot as Crafti mucked his hand.
Level 42
: Blinds 1,500,000/3,000,000, 3,000,000 ante
Christopher Basile raised to 15,000,000 in middle position, leaving just 4,500,000 behind. Vincent Lavollee then moved all in on the button for 42,500,000. Basile took a little bit of time to act, with the tournament on a pay jump, before putting his chips in.
Christopher Basile: A♠7♣
Vincent Lavollee: Q♦Q♣
The window card gave Basile cause to celebrate, but hidden treasures followed for Lavollee, as the dealer laid out a A♥7♥Q♠ flop.
Basile then received immediate service on the A♦ turn, giving him a superior full house.
There was no more drama on the 2♥ river, and Lavollee slid nearly half his stack across the table to Basile.
Level 42
: Blinds 1,500,000/3,000,000, 3,000,000 ante
Dominik Panka made it 6,000,000 to play from early position, only for Abdullah Akbarpoor in the cutoff to three-bet to 16,500,000. Action came back to Panka, who made the call.
On the Q♥5♣3♦ flop, Panka checked to Akbarpoor, who continued for 18,000,000. Panka tanked for a short while and made the call.
The turn brought the 2♣, and Panka checked it over to Akbarpoor once more, who moved all in. Panka snap-called.
Abdullah Akbarpoor: A♦Q♣
Dominik Panka: Q♠Q♦
Panka's trap had been sprung to perfection, having Akbarpoor drawing dead. The irrelevant 9♦ came on the river to seal the deal, and Akbarpoor was sent to the rail in 15th place.
Level 42
: Blinds 1,500,000/3,000,000, 3,000,000 ante
James Gilbert moved all in from under the gun for 19,000,000 and Wanda Hallman reshoved from middle position for 17,500,000. With no other takers, the two players went to a showdown.
Wanda Hallman: K♠Q♠
James Gilbert: J♦J♥
The board ran out 8♥7♦K♣8♠Q♣, giving Hallman two pair, kings and queens, to secure the double-up and leave Gilbert with just crumbs.
In the very next hand, Gilbert was automatically all in from the big blind for his last 1,500,000. Leo Lombardozzi opened under the gun to 6,000,000 and found a caller in Dominik Panka.
When the flop came A♠K♥8♥, Lombardozzi continued for 5,000,000, but it was not Panka’s flop as he quickly mucked his cards.
James Gilbert: 6♠4♠
Leo Lombardozzi: A♥J♥
The turn brought the 7♦, giving Gilbert a few extra outs, but the 5♥ on the river completed his straight while also improving Lombardozzi to a flush, sending Gilbert to the rail.
