Christopher Philippou Eliminated in 9th Place €30,050
Christopher Philippou opened to 50,000 from under the gun and received a call from Patrick Kennedy in the small blind before Youness Barakat three-bet shoved for 218,000 from the big blind. Philippou shoved for his stack of 260,000 and Kennedy, who covered both players, made the call.
Youness Barakat: A♥Q♥J♠8♠ 
Christopher Philippou: A♦A♠6♥2♠
Patrick Kennedy: K♣Q♠J♣5♠
Philippou was still ahead with his aces on the 8♣4♣2♦ flop but Kennedy just needed a club to complete his flush draw and eliminate both opponents. The 10♦ turn also brought a straight draw for both Kennedy and Barakat which came right in on the 9♦ turn. Barakat and Kennedy split the main pot with a queen-high straight and Kennedy took the small side pot while Philippou became the first final table casualty.
