It Ain't Faaron Everyone Else

Senninger himself is not bothered, though
Senninger himself is not bothered, though
Nikolai Senninger raised to 180,000 but his attempt at aggression was thwarted by a reraise to 450,000 from Aaron Gustavson -- the second hand running he'd three-bet preflop. And just like the last time, the original raiser folded and Gustavson took the pot. The Lion King looked sad.

Cullen Shoves, Survives

Rui Milhomens raised to 180,000, but Dominic Cullen shoved for his whole 1.535 million stack. Milhomens thought about it, but eventually made a resigned "oh well" sort of face and folded. Last Brit standing Cullen picked up the pot to a brief burst of applause from the rail.

Ray Guns For Senniger

Nikolai Senniger raises to 185,000 and Raymond Wu reraises all-in for 1,140,000. Wu sits as still as the Simba lion in fron of Senniger.

A minute of thought is followed by a simple flick of the German's wrist to muck his cards meaning Wu adds more to his stack.

Karim Benanni Eliminated In 8th (£50,100)

Karim Bennani - 8th
Karim Bennani - 8th
Karim Benanni moves all-in for his last 290,000 or so. Peter Eastgate stares deeply from beneath arched eyebrows but folds. Rui Milhomens auto-calls in the big blind.

Milhomens: {K-Spades} {10-Spades}
Bennani: {K-Diamonds} {3-Hearts}

The board comes {J-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {3-Spades} {4-Spades} {5-Clubs}, Milhomens is flushed with success while Bennani is simply flushed away. The French/Morrocan player is the first out on the final table.
