Juan "xPastorcitox" Pastor made a raise to 660,000 from middle position and Ivan "ILS007" Stokes defended the big blind.

Stokes then went on to check-call Pastor's 451,875 bet on the K♦7♠Q♣ flop before both players checked the 3♦ turn.

The K♠ river completed the pot and Stokes led out for a massive bet of 5,400,000, twice the size of the pot. Pastor thought about it for a bit but ended up making the call.

Stokes showed K♥3♥ for a full house and Pastor mucked his cards as he could not beat that.

Nível 35 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 32,500 ante

Juan "xPastorcitox" Pastor raised his button to 550,000 and both blinds Leonard "Grozzorg" Maue and Niklas "Lena900" Astedt called. The flop of 9♥8♣5♥ was then checked by all players before Maue led out for 1,250,000 on the 4♠ turn. Astedt folded but Pastor made the call to see the river.

The K♥ completed the board and, after tanking for a while, Maue fired a bet of 3,125,000 chips. Now it was Pastor's time to think it over, and he eventually made the call.

Maue showed 4♦4♣ for bottom set, but Pastor had it beat with 10♥7♥ for a rivered flush, seizing the chip lead from the German.

Ivan "ILS007" Stokes raised to 500,000 from under the gun and Leonard "Grozzorg" Maue was the only interested party in the cutoff. The flop of Q♥2♥10♠ saw Stokes continue for 550,275 and Maue call.

Stokes then fired a pot-sized bet of 2,750,000 on the 5♦ turn and Maue made another call. The 10♦ river was subsequentially checked by both players, and Stokes' pair of fies with 7♥5♥ was beaten by Maue's A♣Q♦ for a pair of queens, giving the chip lead to Maue.

Kerber Doubles Through Astedt in Six-Bet Cooler

Niklas "Lena900" Astedt raised to 550,000 from early position before Kelvin "Kelvin_FP:AR" Kerber reraised to 1,800,000 from the button. The action folded back to Astedt, who four-bet to 3,750,000.

Kerber then clicked it back to 5,800,000 chips and Astedt finally put it all in, covering Kerber's total stack of 12,174,058. Kerber snap called and the cards went on their backs.

Kelvin "Kelvin_FP:AR" Kerber: A♠A♥
Niklas "Lena900" Astedt: K♠K♦

It was the ultimate hold'em cooler, and Kerber's aces would hold when no king arrived on 8♥J♥10♦5♣4♦, doubling him up and seeing Astedt's stack diminish to under average.

Nível 35 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 32,500 ante

The action folded to Ivan "ILS007" Stokes in the small blind, who limped in. Jamil "Jamil11" Wakil sat in the big blind and raised it to 875,000 and Stokes called.

Both players checked the J♠J♦8♦ flop before Stokes led out for 674,025 on the Q♣ turn. The river then fell the 4♥ and Stokes bet a massive 4,875,000, one and a half times the pot and more than half of Wakil's stack.

Wakil mulled it over for a bit before making the call. Stokes could only show 10♣3♣ for a ten-high bluff and Wakil tabled his A♥Q♥ for the winner with two pair.
