Perkins Eliminated by Fast

Level 10 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Bill Perkins moved all in for 61,000 in early position and Dietrich Fast on the button moved all in over the top for 140,000.

"That's not good for me," Perkins said in table chat before the cards were turned over.

Bill Perkins: {A-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Dietrich Fast: {J-Spades}{J-Diamonds}

The board came {Q-Clubs}{9-Spades}{8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} and Perkins found no help. Shortly after, Nick Petrangelo was eliminated by Dean Nolan over on table two and that reduced the field to the last 30.

Kaverman Doubles Once More

Level 9 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Sam Greenwood raised on the button and Byron Kaverman moved all in for 113,000 from one seat over, which Greenwood called with the {4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}. Kaverman had two overcards in {J-Spades}{8-Spades} and the board of {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{A-Spades} improved him to aces and jacks.

Jan-Eric Schwippert called a raise to 12,000 by Seth Davies and Bryn Kenney in the small blind three-bet to 41,000. Davies moved all in for more than 170,000 and forced folds all around.

Aido Shoves and Adams Times Out

Level 9 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Sergio Aido
Sergio Aido

Sergio Aido raised to 13,000 from the hijack and Timothy Adams three-bet to 40,000 in the cutoff. Aido made the call after the rest of the table folded, and the flop came down {8-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}, and Aido check-called a 30,000 bet from Adams.

The turn brought the {4-Diamonds}, and both players checked to see the {k-Hearts} river. Adio checked once more, and Adams bet 100,000. Aido used nearly all of his 30 seconds before he announced all in for around 300,000.

Adams only had one time bank card left and had to use it as he thought through his decision. Adams was unable to make a decision and ultimately saw his one minute come to an end and his hand was declared dead.

Aido picked up the pot uncontested and got the overall chip lead with 595,000.

Three Down After the Break

Level 9 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Tsugunari Toma
Tsugunari Toma

Stefan Schillhabel, Henrik Hecklen and Tsugunari Toma all departed soon after the cards went back in the air.

Toma moved all in from under the gun with {Q-}{10-Diamonds} and was called by Jan-Eric Schwippert with the {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}. Toma picked up some puts on the {K-Spades}{K-Hearts}{J-Diamonds} flop, but the {3-Spades} turn and {10-Hearts} river run out sent the Japanese to the rail.
