Neil Channing raises to $140,000 and Tim Blake moves all-in over the top for $198,000 more. Action folds back to Channing, who makes the call with Q6o against Blake's K J. Blake looks to be in good shape to double, but the flop changes the situation by coming A-Q-9. The turn is a five and the river an other queen and Tim Blake is eliminated in fourth place. He earns €220,000 for his efforts.

The field is now on a fifteen minute break.

Tim Blake open-shoves for his last $182,000 on the button and Donal Norton makes the call in the big blind, showing K-9 while Blake has woken up with aces (and not a moment too soon).

The 25th level of the tournament is over and we're on to Level 16. Action continues without a break.

Neil Channing raises to $125,000 from the button and Danilo Paulsen makes the call in the big blind. The flop comes K-8-6 and Paulsen checks to Channing, who checks behind. The turn is the T and Paulsen bets out $160,000. Channing re-raises to $450,000 and Paulsen goes into the tank for a few minutes. Eventually he announces all-in and Channing snap-calls, turning up 9-7 for the nut straight while Paulsen can only muster K-J and is drawing dead. The river is the 7 and Paulsen's demise is official; he's out in 5th place and will take home €175,000 for his time.
