Level 18
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
In the final hand of the day, the action folded around to Magnus Karlsson on the small blind, who looked over at Andrei Kaigorodtcev’s stack in the big blind, before moving all in for around 130,000 in chips. Kaigorodtcev peaked down at his cards, before stepping up from the table, walking in a circle, returning, and committing his remaining 100,000 in chips.
Kaigorodtcev: 
Karlsson: 
Board: 
Karlsson was hoping to get a fold from the big blind, and was caught out, smiling cheekily as he turned over his cards. He was rewarded, however, when he flopped top pair to take the lead. Kaigorodtcev received some out on the turn, looking for any heart or an ace on the river to win the hand. The four would not help, as the final player was eliminated, leaving us with our final table.

Jae Kyung Sim made it 20,000 to go in early position, and Daniel Spence quickly called behind him. Action folded to Anthony Wright in the big blind, and he counted out his chips, before grabbing a 20-stack of yellow T5,000 chips, and sliding it into the middle, a three bet to 100,000. Sim got out of the way, but Spence didn't go anywhere. After about 20 seconds of thought, he slid the call in, which prompted Sim to say "woah big pot."
The flop brought all low cards, coming

Andrew Nguyen made it 13,000 to go in early position, and Michael Allmrodt was the lone caller on the button. The flop came down 
, and Nguyen continuation bet to 14,000. Allmrodt thought for about a minute before putting out a min-raise to 28,000. It got back to Nguyen, and after about 30 seconds of thinking, he grabbed a stack of yellow T5,000 chips, and dropped them in the middle, putting Allmrodt all in.
As he has done throughout the day, Allmorodt took his time with his decision, tanking for at least four minutes. Eventually, he folded 
face up, giving the pot to Nguyen, who jumped up to 210,000 in the process. Meanwhile, Allmrodt is where he has been for quite some time now, sitting on the shortest stack in the room with 85,000.

It took about 20-minutes after returning from the break, for some fireworks to occur on both tables.
On Table 6, Daniel Spence opened from the button to 13,000 before Milan Gurung raised to 53,000 in chips. Spence thought for a minute before making the call, as the 
was spread out on the flop. Milan didn’t slow down, throwing out a continuation bet of 55,000, before met with an instant all-in for 330,000 from Spence. He thought for a moment, before mucking his hand.
On Table 9, Andrew Nguyen opened to 12,500 from under the gun, before Bawod Hyunshik Yun raised to 30,000 from the cut-off. Nguyen leaned forward in his chair, eyeing of his own stack, contemplating his next move. He pulled out a stack of 5,000-chips totalling 100,000 and looked like betting them, before announcing all in, for around 400,000 in chips. Yun then waited a minute, before making the call, as both players tabled their cards.
Yun:
Nguyen:
Board:
Yun flopped a set and looked in great shape, even though Nguyen had outs to a straight. The turn and river were no help, as Yun double fist-pumped to himself, scooping in the big pot.
