Brian Hastings got the rest of his 130,000 chips in the middle against Julien Martini.

Hastings made {9-}{7-}{6-}{7-}{3-}{k-}{k-}, but finished well behind Martini's {7-}{2-}{5-}{4-}{a-}{3-}.

"Just a wheel," a tablemate said as the six-time bracelet winner made his exit in seventh place.

On the hand after losing the pot to Koray Aldemir, Julien Martini called after Felipe Ramos completed.

"I cannot play anymore. You guys read me too well," Martini said

Ramos bet again on fourth street and Martini called. On fifth, Martini bet, Ramos raised, and Martini re-raised. Ramos called to sixth when Martini again bet, Ramos put in a raise, and Martini re-raised.

Ramos called and bet on seventh. "This is insane," Martini said as he called. Ramos showed {8-}{a-}{2-} for 8-7-3-2-A and Martini mucked.

Level 21 : Limits 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Koray Aldemir completed with a {5-} up and Julien Martini raised with an {a-} which saw Aldemir call.

Koray Aldemir: {x-}{x-}/{5-}{10-}{k-}{10-}/{x-}
Julien Martini: {x-}{x-}/{a-}{9-}{9-}{a-}/{x-}

Aldemir called Martini's bet on fourth street.

On fifth street the betting lead switched to Aldemir who checked to Martini who bet and Aldemir called.

On sixth street Aldemir checked once more and Martini bet, sending Aldemir into the tank. After some time he put in the call, leaving himself only 275,000 behind.

Seventh street saw the same action and Aldemir called while Martini sheepishly turned over {9-}{8-}{8-} for a full house. Aldemir turned over {6-}{6-}{3-} for a king-ten and Martini's jaw dropped. He continued to talk about the pot for the next few minutes in utter disbelief.
