Level 20

It was a matter of time before ultra short stack Andrejs Punka would be at risk, but he was able to wiggle two shoves through first. Both times, Punka shoved for 66,000 from under the gun and everyone folded.
Shortly after his second shove, Joris Ruijs raised to 35,000 in middle position, Punka three-bet shoved 74,000 from the small blind and Ruijs flicked in the few extra chips.
