Daniel Myers Eliminated in 13th Place (€89,550)
After taking his 20,000 to 90,000, Daniel Myers put in his one big blind stack from early position. Harry Lodge called from the small blind and Marius-Catalin Pertea checked his option in the big blind.
Myers appeared very relaxed after the J?8?3? flop, chatting to Mitch Hynam and Carl Shaw on the rail. The blinds checked, and did the same on the 7? turn and 2? river.
"The toppest of pairs," said Myers, as he tabled Q?J?. Lodge sent his K?5? into the muck and Pertea did the same with his Q?9?.
The following hand, Myers wagered his stack of 370,000. The action folded to Andrew Hulme in the big blind, and he called to put the Liverpudlian at risk.
Daniel Myers: A?8?
Andrew Hulme: Q?J?
Myers was looking to pull off "the greatest comeback in PokerStars history," and it appeared he would be on his way to do that after the K?5?2? flop and 6? turn. However, the Q? completed the board and gave Hulme a pair of queens to seal the checkmark and elimination.
