Ruida Sends Dzivielevski to the Rail

Level 3 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

On a board of {q-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{q-Spades}{3-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}, after Lin Ruida checked the river, Yuri Dzivielevski moved all-in for 102,000.

Ruida was pained with his decision, using a pair of time banks before finally slamming down a stack of chips to call, covering Dzivielevski.

Yuri Dzivielevski: {a-Hearts}{7-Hearts}
Lin Ruida: {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs}

Dzivielevski's bluff was picked off by Ruida's pair of jacks, and the Brazillian star headed to the exit. He will have the option to re-enter through the dinner break after level ten should he choose.

Pardo Gets a Quick Boost Through Brewer

Level 3 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Not long after entering the tournament, Juan Pardo has made Chris Brewer the first player to re-enter the field.

On a river board of {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{j-Spades}{4-Diamonds}, Pardo moved all-in on Brewer for a little under 90,000. After using a time bank, Brewer made the call for slightly less.

Chris Brewer: {a-Hearts}{3-Spades}
Juan Pardo: {4-Clubs}{4-Spades}

Pardo showed a rivered set of fours to eliminate Brewer, who immediately re-entered the tournament for a fresh 100,000 chips.

Adams Shoves on Brewer

Level 2 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Timothy Adams opened the action with a raise to 2,500 in the cutoff, receiving a call from Chris Brewer in the big blind.

The duo checked a flop of {3-Spades}{3-Hearts}{a-Spades}, then on the {8-Spades} turn, Brewer led for 5,000.

Adams called, and on the {j-Hearts} river, Brewer put forward another 18,000. Adams then jammed for a little over 90,000.

After using a pair of time banks, Brewer opted to fold and cede the pot to Adams.
