Pascal Heinrichs

Pascal Heinrichs moved all in for 350,000 from early position and was snap-called by Jan Bednar from the big blind.

Pascal Heinrichs: {k-Spades}{j-Clubs}
Jan Bednar: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}

Heinrichs ran into pocket races and was even more troubled following the {a-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} flop. Bednar then made quads on the {a-Diamonds} turn, and the {4-Spades} completed the board.

Another Double for Niederreiter

Level 26 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Fabian Niederreiter raised to 100,000 on the button and Or Suliman defended from the big blind. The flop came {q-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} and Suliman checked to Niederreiter who continued with a bet of 75,000. Suliman check-raised to 225,000 and Niederreiter just called.

The {8-Hearts} rolled off on the turn and Suliman instantly announced all in. Niederreiter called off his last 555,000 and turned over {j-Spades}{j-Clubs} for a set of jacks. Suliman was in tough with {8-Clubs}{5-Clubs} for a pair and a flush draw but the {j-Hearts} on the river gave Niederreiter quads to double up.

Niederreiter and Maskill Double Up

Level 26 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Fabian Niederreiter raised to 365,000 under the gun, leaving just 75,000 chips behind. Humberto Lopes Galindo just called on his left and the flop fell {j-Spades}{8-Hearts}{6-Spades}. Niederreiter checked to Galindo who bet 75,000 and Niederreiter called it off.

Niederreiter flipped over {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} and was ahead of Galindo's {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}. The {5-Spades} on the turn and the {q-Hearts} on the river changed nothing and Niederreiter doubled up.

On the next hand, Jack Maskill raised to 100,000 in the cutoff and Georgi Sandev three-bet to 450,000 on the button. Maskill four-bet shoved all in for 1,065,000 and Sandev called.

Jack Maskill: {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}
Georgi Sandev: {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}

The flop of {q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} favored Sandev with a pair and a flush draw. The {k-Clubs} on the turn improved him to two pair but the {10-Hearts} on the river gave Maskill a straight to also double up.

Martin Stausholm Eliminated in 18th Place (€10,175); Giedrius Breive Eliminated in 17th Place (€10,175)

Level 26 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Martin Stausholm
Martin Stausholm

On Table 2, Gerard Cortes opened to 100,000 from the small blind and was called by Martin Stausholm from the big blind.

Stausholm called bets of 50,000 and 100,000 for the final board to show {a-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{8-Hearts}. Cortes then jammed as the bigger stack and Stausholm went into the tank.

While that hand took place, there was an all-in and a call on Table 1. Giedrius Breive put his last 460,000 from the small blind, and Georgi Sandev called on his direct left. The dealer told the players to keep their cards face down until there was a call of a fold from Satusholm, as he was still mulling over his options.

Back on Table 2, Stausholm found the call, and the cards were tabled. Stausholm had the {k-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} for bottom pair but was eliminated as Cortes had the {8-Diamonds}{4-Spades} for two pair, eights and fours. Stausholm was the start-of-day chip leader but became one of first few to leave.

As that hand concluded, Sandev and Breive tabled their cards.

Giedrius Breive: {a-Hearts}{3-Clubs}
Georgi Sandev: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

Sandev superior ace was enough to secure the pot and the bust out, as neither player connected on the {10-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{10-Spades}{4-Hearts} runout.

As there was a pay jump between 18th and 17th place, but both players were eliminated simultaneously, it was declared that they would share their payouts equally.

Level 25 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Lex Veldhuis
Lex Veldhuis

Sunho Yoo limped in on the button and Pascal Heinrichs raised to 145,000 from the small blind. Lex Veldhuis stuck in his last 140,000 from the big blind and Yoo also called.

The flop fell {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} and both players checked to the {8-Spades} on the turn. Heinrichs led out with a bet of 205,000 on the turn and Yoo called to see the {k-Clubs} on the river.

Heinrichs fired out another bet of 200,000 and Yoo jammed all in. Heinrichs instantly called and both players turned over the same straight with {10-Clubs}{8-Hearts} and {10-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} respectively. Veldhuis tabled {a-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} and was eliminated in 19th place while the other two players chopped his bounty.
