Elias Fisz Eliminated in 3rd Place (�128,530)

Level 36 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Elias Fisz
Elias Fisz

Elias Fisz was first to act on the button, and went all in for for 10,550,000, which equated to 20 big blinds. Jean-Luc Labryga folded his small blind, then big blind Alan Goasdoue asked for a count. When eventually the correct number was announced, he called to put Fisz at risk.

Elias Fisz: {a-Spades}{8-Diamonds}
Alan Goasdoue: {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}

{10-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{2-Hearts}{4-Hearts} was the board runout. No ace or other shenanigans for Fisz, and thus he left the tournament in third place.

Meanwhile, Labryga and Goasdoue are getting ready for their heads up battle for the trophy and the grand prize of �287,830.

Roger Taieb Eliminated in 4th Place (�98,870)

Level 36 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Roger Taieb
Roger Taieb

Jean-Luc Labryga opened to 1,600,000 from the cutoff and Roger Taieb three-bet jammed a stack of 7,500,000 from the button.

"I can't fold this. I call," Labryga said.

Roger Taieb: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}
Jean-Luc Labryga: {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}

It would indeed be hard for Labryga to fold as he held the best possible starting hand. The flop landed {a-Hearts}{4-Spades}{q-Diamonds} to have Taieb drawing to just runner-runner quads and the runout of {6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} confirmed the loud and energetic Frenchman's elimination in fourth place.

Labryga Not Afraid

Level 36 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Roger Taieb was first to act when he raised to 1,050,000. Two players folded, and big blind Jean-Luc Labryga called.

The flop was {8-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{k-Clubs} and Labryga decided to lead out for 1,400,000, which Taieb called. The action slowed down on the {10-Hearts} turn, when both players checked.

On the {4-Clubs} river Labryga grabbed a stack of 30 T-100,000 chips, for a bet of three million. Taieb looked at Labryga suspiciously, but let his hand go after a while. Labryga confirmed Taieb's suspicions when he tabled {a-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} for the stone-cold bluff.

Goasdoue Grows Lead

Level 36 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Alan Goasdoue opened to 1,750,000 in the small blind and Elias Fisz defended out of the big blind.

Goasdoue continued for 2,500,000 on the {4-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} flop and Fisz called. The turn brought the {j-Diamonds} and Goasdoue sat still before announcing all in with Fisz covered.

"Ay ya ya," groaned Fisz as he considered calling off for his remaining 11,000,000. Eventually, he folded.

Taieb's Four-Bet Gets It Done

Level 36 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Roger Taieb opened the action as first to act, with a raise to 1,050,000. Small blind Elias Fisz clicked it back to 2,250,000, after which Taieb announced his all-in.

Fisz asked for a count, and after getting the number of 9,500,000 as an answer, he went into the tank, with Taieb pleading for a fold from the Dutchman. In the end, Fisz reluctantly folded, commenting ''comme ci, comme ?a'' to his three French opponents.

Christopher Dowling Eliminated in 5th Place (�76,050)

Level 36 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Chris Dowling
Chris Dowling

Roger Taieb open-jammed on the button and Christopher Dowling quickly re-shoved in the small blind with a bigger stack to get things heads-up.

Roger Taieb: {a-Diamonds}{4-Spades}
Christopher Dowling: {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

Dowling let out a groan as the flop landed {3-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{8-Spades} to pair Taieb's four and nothing changed on the {2-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} runout to earn the Frenchman the double.

Dowling was down to just 2,400,000 and open-jammed the next hand from the button before Alan Goasdoue called in the small blind.

Christopher Dowling: {j-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Alan Goasdoue: {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}

Dowling couldn't win the flip as the board ran out {8-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} to mark his elimination in fifth place.

Taieb and Downling Chop in the Blinds

Level 36 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

The action folded around to Roger Taieb in the small blind, who went all in for his last eight big blinds. Christopher Dowling in the small blind asked for a count, but called before it was completed.

Roger Taieb: {j-Spades}{10-Spades}
Christopher Dowling: {a-Clubs}{4-Clubs}

The board ran out a straight with {8-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{9-Clubs}{j-Clubs}, and the players split the pot.
