Dominik Nitsche Eliminated in 21st Place (€57,600)
Dominik Nitsche started the day with only ten big blinds and he posted one of them as the big blind ante before putting another in as the big blind itself.
Nacho Barbero raised to 30,000 from the hijack and Nitsche defended said big blind. On the 9♦8♥4♦ flop, Nitsche check-raised a 20,000 continuation-bet from Barbero to 85,000. Barbero made the call and Nitsche had left himself only 50,000 behind for the turn.
When the J♠ fell, Nitsche used a couple of time bank extensions before finally shoving his remaining stack in the middle. Barbero snap called and Nitsche received bad news.
Dominik Nitsche: 10♥6♦
Nacho Barbero: 8♠8♦
''Just a set, huh?'' somebody commented. Indeed, Barbero had flopped a set and Nitsche needed a queen or seven to complete his straight draw. However, the set held up as the 6♥ river completed the board.
Nitsche was the first player to leave the tournament on Day 3 and takes home €57,600
