Lars Kamphues Eliminated in 17th Place ($46,500)

Level 25 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Lars Kamphues
Lars Kamphues

Steve O'Dwyer raised to 100,000 on the button and Lars Kamphues defended from the big blind.

After Kamphues checked the 9?8?Q? flop, O'Dwyer bet enough to put Kamphues all-in. Kamphues called for his last 215,000 and the cards were revealed.

Lars Kamphues : 5?4? All in
Steve O'Dwyer : K?6?

Kamphues was ahead with his flopped flush, but O'Dwyer could hit a higher flush if another club were to fall.

The turn came the J? which meant Kamphues was drawing dead to O'Dwyer's king-high flush, as the 5? hit the river and Kamphues was out of the tournament.

Andras Nemeth Eliminated in 18th Place ($40,400)

Level 25 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Andras Nemeth
Andras Nemeth

Andras Nemeth raised from the hijack to 80,000 and Niklas Astedt called on the button.

They went to a flop of 4?6?Q? where Nemeth check-called a bet of 75,000 from Astedt.

The turn brought a 9? and again Nemeth checked, then was faced with a bet of 175,00 from Astedt. Nemeth thought for a while, and even used some extra time, before he eventually called.

A 6? on the river paired the board and brought in the backdoor flush draw, and Nemeth checked for a third time. Astedt then bet enough to put Nemeth all-in, who had around 380,000 behind.

"I'm probably calling," said Nemeth as he tossed in some time-bank cards. After burning through two 30-second extensions, Nemeth called.

Astedt showed A?A? for a pair of aces, and Nemeth showed Q?J? for a pair of queens.

Aylar Lie Eliminated in 19th Place ($40,400)

Level 25 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Lie Aylar
Lie Aylar

Aylar Lie shoved from under the gun for 245,000 and Steve O'Dwyer called from the next seat.

Aylar Lie: 8?8? All in
Steve O'Dwyer: A?Q?

Lie had been in this same situation earlier and won the flip against O'Dwyer, and looked good on this occasion after the 7?K?6? flop kept her snowmen in the lead. A 5? on the turn added an open-ender for Lie, but a disastrous Q? on the river meant she was eliminated.
