Trofimov Scores a Huge Double-Up

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Dragos Trofimov
Dragos Trofimov

Ole Schemion raised to 105,000 from the early position and was called by both Dragos Trofimov in mid-position and Conor Beresford in the big blind.

The flop came {4-Clubs}{8-Spades}{9-Diamonds}, Beresford checked while Trofimov called the 210,000 continuation-bet of Schemion.

The turn brought them the {5-Hearts}, Schemion now barreled a bet of 585,000 over the line which Trofimov called.

The river completed the board with the {4-Spades} to pair the board up. Schemion took a few seconds, looked at Trofimov and then decided to go all-in. Trofimov snap-called with {9-Spades}{9-Hearts} for the full house of nines over fours. Schemion looked dismayed and tabled {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts} for the lower full house which drew gasps from the table and the rail.

Joe Cote Eliminated in 9th Place ($11,040)

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

Left with dust after the previous confrontation, Joe Cote was in the big blind and already had a sizable part of his stack in the middle. Conor Beresford raised it up from under the gun and Cote committed his final chips once action was on him.

Joe Cote: {J-Hearts}{3-Hearts}
Conor Beresford: {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}

Cote whiffed the {10-Hearts}{2-Spades}{10-Clubs} flop but picked up some additional outs on the {5-Hearts} turn. The {8-Spades} river didn't help him and he said his goodbyes in 9th place.

Chino Rheem Eliminated in 10th Place ($9,100)

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Chino Rheem raised to 140,000 from the small blind and Ole Schemion was sitting in the big blind. Schemion checked how much Rheem had in total and Rheem responded he had around 1,400,000. Schemion shoved with the bigger stack. Rheem considered it for a bit and then called.

Chino Rheem: {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
Ole Schemion: {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}

The flop came {8-Spades}{k-Spades}{k-Clubs} to not change the situation much.

The turn was the {k-Hearts} to now provide Rheem an extra out to chop the pot but the {8-Hearts} on the river wasn't the last king nor ace or ten to keep Rheem in the tournament as he was eliminated in 10th place.

The nine remaining players are now being combined onto one final table.
