Mustapha Kanit missed out on an open-ended straight and flush draw against Jean-Noel Thorel and the next two players to bust at almost the same time were Mikida Badziakouski and Ramin Hajiyev.

Bryn Kenney raised the button for 20,000 and Badziakouski three-bet for the vast majority of his stack in the small blind. Seth Davies moved all in from the big blind and Kenney folded, Badziakouski called.

Mikita Badziakouski: {A-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}
Seth Davies: {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}

Davies had already revealed his cards and Badziakouski grinned with the words "guess I could have folded," but would have been left with a chip and a chair. The board came {A-Spades}{8-Spades}{2-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} and that was it for the €100,000 Super High Roller champion.

Ramin Hajiyev jammed the cutoff for 104,000 and Alex Foxen came along from the small blind.

Ramin Hajiyev: {K-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Alex Foxen: {Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}

The board came {J-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{9-Spades}{5-Clubs} and Hajiyev was also sent to the rail to reduce the field to the last 23 players, who will redraw to the final three tables shortly.
