Vyacheslav Stoyanov got his last 262,000 in before the flop holding in the cutoff. His opponent would be Chris Walker who called from the big blind holding . The board ran out and Stoyanov made his exit from the feature table and tournament.
Andrew Chen, who also made a deep run in the Eureka Main Event last week (44th for €4,960), has just been eliminated. He found himself short stacked on the button with action having folded to him. He pushed all in for around 200,000 and Lukasz Mroczek in the small blind followed his example, pushing over the top all in. The big blind folded.
Andrew Chen:
Lukasz Mroczek:
Mroczek had slightly more chips than Chen but it was an important coin flip for the both of them. Mroczek won it when the board came and Chen made his exit in 38th place (€19,040).
Roman Korenev just raised to 33,000 from the hijack and Foeke Deinum three-bet from his direct left to 83,000. The player on the button folded and Marc MacDonnell four-bet from the small blind to 183,000.
Korenev folded quickly, but after about 20 seconds, Deinum moved all in.
Deinum's shove was for 765,000 total, and MacDonnell went into the tank for a long time.
"Don't get angry if you think this is a slowroll," MacDonnell said.
"You look cool as a cucumber," MacDonnell then added, and Deinum comfortably smiled.
The two went back and forth for a while, and eventually MacDonnell folded with a look disappointed look on his face.
"We can both show," Deinum politely offered, as MacDonnell quickly retrieved his cards from being mucked.
Deinum showed his and MacDonnell showed his , as the two remained friendly rivals.
"I was thinking, 'You're not a guy who would tank there with queens,' right?" Deinum smiled, as he raked in a decent preflop pot.
Onur Unsal opened for 35,000 from early position and Niall Farrell on the button three-bet to 86,000. Both blinds released and Unsal made the call.
Unsal check called a bet of 69,000 on and check called another 102,000 on the turn. The river came the and Unsal checked again. Farrell thought about it for a bit before he checked behind. Unsal showed and Farrell mucked.
Not much later it was Foeke Deinum who opened the hijack for 36,000. Niall Farrell in the cutoff moved all in for 207,000 and both blinds quickly folded. Deinum asked for a count, and made the call.
Foeke Deinum:
Niall Farrell:
"That wasn't the hand I wanted to see" Farrell said with a smile to Deinum. "But you're good at these right?" Deinum said with a smile. "I am pretty good at these yeah" Farrell answered. And before you knew it, Farrell had a big smile on his face as he saw the flop: .
Deinum pointed at his and Farrell's smile was gone; "Ow %*#!, I didn't see the diamonds!"
The on the turn wasn't a diamond but it was evenly bad news for Farrell. "That's a boring way to get there. At least I have two clean outs" Farrell said.
The on the river wasn't one of the two remaining jacks in the deck Farrell needed, and he made his way to the exit. No back to back for the Irishman, we're going to crown a new EPT champion here in Prague.
Late in the last level we lost Italian Andrea Cortellazzi, and here's how the hand played out. Cortellazzi ended up all in before the flop holding against Gleb Tremzin's .
The board ran out and Cortellazzi's 290,000 chips were sent over to Tremzin. Tremzin now sits on 900,000 chips and that's slightly above the current average of 763,902.
