Alexandros Kolonias Hits the Rail
Action folded to Jean-Noel Thorel in the cutoff and he opened to 46,000. Alexandros Kolonias, on the button, tanked for a bit before he announced all-in for about 160,000. Ben Heath folded his small blind right away, Ali Reza Fatehi needed some more time to let go of his big blind but eventually did fold too. Thorel called right away.
Alexandros Kolonias: 
Jean-Noel Thorel: 
The 
flop just about sealed the deal for Thorel and he had Kolonias drawing dead on the 
-turn. The 
on the river was there just to make things official.
"I made mistake," Thorel said while raking in the chips.
Fatehi was happy Thorel had made the mistake of opening a bit bigger than usual, as he claimed to have folded pocket eights before the flop.
With the exit of Kolonias, the tournament is now down to 24 players. Redraw information is to follow.
