Johannes Straver Eliminated in 4th Place (€160,400)

Nível 22 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Niklas Astedt raised to 125,000 as first to act and the action folded to Johannes Straver in the big blind, who piled his stack of roughly 1,000,000 chips in the middle.

A snap call followed from Astedt and the cards were turned face-up.

Johannes Straver: A♦3♣
Niklas Astedt: 9♠9♣

The 5♦2♥3♥ flop gave Straver some extra outs, but they would not emerge from the deck on the J♦K♠ runout. Straver bowed out in fourth place, and Astedt obtained a commanding chip lead over the other two remaining players.

Mike Watson Eliminated in 5th Place (€124,000)

Nível 21 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Niklas Astedt raised to 125,000 on the button, Mike Watson shoved all in for around 200,000 in the small blind, and Astedt called.

Mike Watson: A♥8♣
Niklas Astedt: A♣6♦

Watson had Astedt dominated as the 5♥2♥2♠ flop left open the possibility of a chop. Astedt, though, hit the 6♠ on the turn to make two pair and the river came the 3♠ to send Watson to the rail in fifth place.

"This guy," Watson sighed as he prepared to make the long walk out of the room.

Joris Ruijs Eliminated in 6th Place (€94,800)

Nível 21 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Niklas Astedt raised all in from the small blind and Joris Ruijs called at-risk from the big blind for 250,000 chips.

Joris Ruijs: 10♥9♥
Niklas Astedt: J♦8♥

Astedt flopped best on 7♠9♦J♠, but the 8♦ turn made Ruijs a straight. The J♥ river crushed his dreams, however, as Astedt upgraded to a full house at his expense.

Ruijs left the tournament area to collect his payout while Astedt captured a small chip lead five-handed.

Nível 21 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Enrico Camosci jammed all in from the hijack for 485,000 chips and was looked up by Niklas Astedt in the small blind.

Enrico Camosci: K♣J♣
Niklas Astedt: Q♠Q♣

No bailout for Camosci this time, as he failed to beat Astedt's queens on the 6♠6♥4♠A♦6♣ runout, meaning the end of his tournament run.

Nível 20 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Viacheslav Buldygin raised to 130,000 in middle position, leaving himself 40,000 back, and Johannes Straver called on the button. The flop came 7♥A♦K♦ and Buldygin checked to Straver who put out a bet and Buldygin called for his last chips.

Viacheslav Buldygin: K♠10♣
Johannes Straver: K♥Q♣

Both players showed a pair of kings, but Straver was ahead with his queen-kicker as the Q♠ turn improved him to two pair. The Q♥ river gave him a full house and sent Buldygin to the rail in eighth place.

Adamszki Holds On For a Massive Double, Suvarna Bubbles

Nível 19 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Tamas Adamszki raised to 60,000 in middle position and Johannes Straver called in middle position, as did small blind Niklas Astedt. Santhosh Suvarna already had most of his stack in the middle from the big blind and called off the rest of his chips.

The flop came 5♠J♥3♥ and action checked to Straver who bet 40,000. Astedt called, while Adamszki then raised to 230,000. Straver folded and Astedt tanked for a minute before announcing all in. Adamszki snap-called for 590,000.

Santhosh Suvarna: K♣10♠
Tamas Adamszki: J♦J♠
Niklas Astedt: A♥Q♥

Adamszki showed top set and needed to hold on against Astedt's nut flush draw. The 8♦ turn was safe, while Adamszki let out a big sigh of relief once the 7♣ completed the board. He doubled up into the chip lead, while Suvarna was sent to the rail on the money bubble.

Brewer Bubbles Final Table

Nível 17 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Niklas Astedt raised to 40,000 from the cutoff before Chris Brewer committed the majority of his stack from the button, three-betting to 150,000. Daniel Dvoress then four-bet from the small blind, forcing a fold from Astedt.

Brewer called off the rest of his chips and was at risk of bubbling the final table.

Chris Brewer: A♥9♦
Daniel Dvoress: K♥K♠

No ace appeared for Brewer on 6♥6♠Q♦2♠6♣, and Dvoress' full house sent Brewer home in tenth place.

Adamszki Snaps Off Gutierrez

Nível 17 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Tamas Adamszki raised to 45,000 on the button and Elias Gutierrez called in the big blind.

The flop came J♦3♦4♣ and Adamszki continued for 30,000. Gutierrez then moved all in for 180,000 and Adamszki snap-called.

Elias Gutierrez: 7♣4♦
Tamas Adamszki: J♠7♠

Gutierrez was trailing the flopped pair of jacks held by Adamszki while the J♥ turn improved Adamszki to trips and left Gutierrez drawing dead.

The Q♥ completed the board and Gutierrez was eliminated. With 10 players remaining, play is going hand-for-hand until the nine-handed final table is reached.

Michael Jozoff: A♣Q♣
Niklas Astedt: A♥A♦

The board ran out an uneventful J♠5♣4♥5♠9♥ and Astedt added some more chips to his stack while Jozoff said his goodbyes.

Jamil Wakil: 3♠3♦
Daniel Dvoress: 10♥10♠
