Ryan Mandara
Ryan Mandara

Andras Nemeth raised to 50,000 from early position and Ryan Mandara shoved for 405,000 out of the big blind. Nemeth called.

Ryan Mandara : K?K? All in
Andras Nemeth: A?Q?

Mandara had to avoid an ace to double-up. The dealer put out a board of J?8?Q?10?J?, which kept Mandara's kings ahead the whole way, and he stayed alive in the tournament.

Niklas Astedt

Lars Kamphues raised to 85,000 from the small blind and Juan Pardo three-bet to 220,000 out of the big blind. Kamphues four-bet shoved for Pardo's remaining 700,000, and Pardo called.

Lofberg Doubles Through Margolin

Level 23 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

The action folded around to Simon Lofberg in the small blind, who shoved for 325,000. When Lev Margolin looked down at his cards from the big blind, he instantly called.

Simon Lofberg: K?5? All in
Lev Margolin: A?J?

Lofberg found a pair on the K?9?6? flop, then rivered two pair on the 8?5? runout, which kept him alive, and left Margolin in the danger zone.

Hannes Jeschka Eliminated in 24th Place ($30,600)

Level 23 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Hannes Jeschka
Hannes Jeschka

Stoyan Madanzhiev raised from early position to 50,000 and Hannes Jeschka shoved from the cutoff for 325,000. When it got back to Madanzhiev, he called.

Hannes Jeschka: 9?9? All in
Stoyan Madanzhiev: A?K?

Jeschka was at risk and needed to win a flip in order to stay alive. The Austrian player surely breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the 9? in the window, but seeing the 8?5? that followed probably didn't help the nerves, as Madazhiev picked up a flush draw. A 4? on the was safe, but the 2? river gave Madanzhiev a flush, eliminating Jeschka.

Mehdi Chaoui
Mehdi Chaoui

Action folded to Mehdi Chaoui on the button, who opened to 350,000, leaving himself about 60,000 behind. Hannes Jeschka three-bet jammed from the small blind with the covering stack, and Chaoui got the rest in the middle.

Mehdi Chaoui: A?J? All in
Hannes Jeschka: A?4?

Chaoui had Jeschka dominated, and his double-up was confirmed by the J?8?4?9?3? runout, Chaoui ending up with top pair jacks.

Mandara and Nemeth Both Flop Top Two

Level 23 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Andras Nemeth raised to 50,000 from early position and both Diogo Coelho & Ryan Mandara called out of the blinds.

Ryan Mandara: Q?9? All in
Diogo Coelho: Q?9?

Coelho had the freeroll with backdoor diamonds, but it didn't happen as the two chopped up the pot on the 6?7? runout.
