Level 33 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Baurzhan Akimov opened in early position to 500,000 before the action moved all the way to Parahat Nurmuhammedov who defended his big blind.

The A?7?6? flop hit the felt and after only a second in the tank Nurmuhammedov led all in for 1,125,000. Akimov snap called.

Parahat Nurmuhammedov: 5?4?
Baurzhan Akimov: A?J?

Nurmuhammedov had equity in the form of an open ender but Akimov was in the lead with top pair. The dealer burned and turned the 8? and just like that Akimov was drawing dead. The 9? river didn't change a thing and Nurmuhammedov got a pure double with eight still remaining.

Level 34 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Frederic Popot moved all in from the cutoff with A?2? for 1,200,000. Fabian Quoss called in the big blind with a covering stack to put Popot at risk.

Frederic Popot: A?2?
Fabian Quoss: 9?6?

Popot was a slight favorite with an ace but Quoss flopped a straight on the 10?7?8? flop, leaving Popot drawing only to running cards for a possible chop. The 7? turn left Popot drawing completely dead and after the J? river was dealt Popot made his exit from the tournament area while Quoss collected the last of his chips.
