"Ace king hasn't hit a single time on this table," Filippos Amelios exclaims when Fritz Matthias Douhan doubles Ziad Zebib. The latter flips for 17,700 with T♠ T♦ versus A♣ K♠ and remains ahead on the Q♦ J♣ 3♠ 8♥ Q♥ runout.

After a flop of J♠ 9♦ 5♥ , Fritz Mattias Douhan moves all in from middle position for19,100, and Soon Lee Toh thinks for a while before he calls from the hijack with A♣ Q♠ for ace high with two overcards.

Douhan turns over Q♥ T♦ for an open-ended straight draw, and he needs to improve to stay alive. Douhan stands up as if he's expecting to be eliminated here.

The turn card is the K♠ , the river card is the 3♠ , and Douhan turns a king-high straight to win the pot and double up in chips.

Douhan breathes a sigh of relief and says, "First time in a week."

Another player smiles and says, "It was your well-executed stand-up."

Ziad Zebib is short-stacked and all in preflop against two other players.

The flop comes K♣ J♣ 9♣ , the big blind checks, Fritz Mattias Douhan bets 9,000 into a dry side pot, and the big blind folds.

The turn card is the K♠ , the river card is the 5♥ , and Zebib wins the pot with two pair, kings and nines, to triple up in chips.

Kabir Tandon enters two hands in a row that earns him a player's stack. The first hand opens with Fritz Douhan limping in, Tandon raises 1200, small blind and Douhan call. At the flop J♦ 7♣ 5♦ ,

Douhan bets 3300, only Tandon calls to take it to fourth street J♣ . Douhan wastes no time counting and shoves, Tandon calls.
