Bilan, Constantin Run Out

Nível 25 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Florin Bilan was all in for around 600,000 from the button and up against Niklas Bauer in early position.

Florin Bilan: J♠J♦
Niklas Bauer: Q♣Q♥

Bilan had run into a higher pocket pair and was sent off to collect a payday once the board ran out K♥10♠A♥6♣3♦.

At the same time at another table, Adrian Constantin, who had flirted with the chip leader earlier in the day, was down to around 400,000 and was all in against Stefan Zaugg.

Adrian Constantin: A♥5♦
Stefan Zaugg: K♥Q♠

The A♠Q♣2♦ flop gave both players a pair, but Zaugg improved to two pair on the K♦ turn. The river came the 7♠ and Constantin was eliminated.

Salerno Eliminates Kuru

OHairDJ

Nível 25 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Serkan Kuru shoved for his last 1,400,000 on the button and it was folded to Elia Salerno in the big blind, who called to put Kuru at risk.

Serkan Kuru: 5♥5♦
Elia Salerno: A♥J♠

It was a race, but the 4♠A♣8♦ flop paired Salerno's ace and left Kuru drawing slim.

The Q♦ turn and 7♠ river were of no help to Kuru and he was sent to the payout desk late in Day 2.

Marius Gicovanu: Q♦Q♥

Nível 25 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Artiom Poddubnii raised to 160,000 in the cutoff and Louis Denizart called on the button. Lazare Kalebashvili then three-bet to 675,000 in the small blind.

Poddubnii folded, but Denizart moved all in for 2,100,000 and Kalebashvili quickly called.

Louis Denizart: A♠10♥
Lazare Kalebashvili: 10♦10♣

Denizart was looking for an ace to double up in what had turned into a 4,000,000-chip pot, but none came on the K♥5♦9♥6♣3♠ board and he was sent to the rail.

Gicovanu Rockets Up the Leaderboard in Three-Way All In

Nível 24 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Stefan Fabian raised to 125,000 under the gun before Marius Gicovanu three-bet to 385,000 on the button. Viktor Lavi then moved all in for 1,990,000 in the small blind.

Fabian tanked for a minute before also shoving for around 2,000,000. Gicovanu couldn't put his chips in fast enough and shot out of his seat.

Viktor Lavi: J♥J♦
Stefan Fabian: Q♣Q♦
Marius Gicovanu: A♣A♥

Around 6,000,000 was in the pot as the dealer turned over the 2♦6♠5♣10♥8♣ board. Gicovanu let out a big fist pump as his aces held up to send both Fabian and Lavi to the rail.

Fabian came over to shake Gicovanu's hand on his way to the exit, while Gicovanu moved up among the chip leaders.

"Nice pot. You couldn't think about it," a tablemate joked with Gicovanu after the hand.

Short Stacks Battle

Nível 24 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Stefan Petri seemed to be relieved when he found a good hand to go all in for his last two blinds under the gun. After a few folds, Danielle Lautwein moved all in too for 280,000 chips (less than five blinds) in the cutoff, and the other players folded.

Stefan Petri: A♠Q♦
Danielle Lautwein: A♥K♦

Even though he had very few outs, Petri kept his smile but was eliminated after the 10♦10♠7♦5♦8♥ runout.

Eljach Coolers Magny to the Rail

Nível 23 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Giuseppe Mazza-Boussemart and Gilles Magny built a pot of around 1,300,000 heading to the turn on a board of Q♥2♥9♣9♠. Mazza-Boussemart then moved all in from the cutoff.

Magny, with around 800,000 remaining, tanked for several minutes as the two players chatted about the decision.

"Can we have some cake and coffee? They're having a rendezvous over there," tablemate Sebastian Langrock joked with a tournament official. "That's my way of almost calling time," Langrock added.

Magny eventually folded, but the next hand he found himself facing an all-in shove again. Omar Eljach bet 150,000 from the big blind on a board of 7♦8♥3♣9♣ and Magny called in the cutoff.

The river came the 8♣ and Eljach moved all in. The rest of the room had already left for break as Magny continued to tank. He eventually called for 450,000.

Eljach turned over J♠10♣ for a straight and Magny showed A♠8♠ as he got up to make his exit. "Tough river," Eljach told him.

Poddubnii Cracks Aces to Bust Another

Nível 23 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Artiom Poddubnii and Radek Jantos were heads-up on a flop of Q♦K♣3♦, where Jantos got the rest of his 1,000,000 in the middle from the big blind against Poddubnii in the cutoff.

Radek Jantos: A♥A♣
Artiom Poddubnii: A♦10♦

Jantos had aces but needed to dodge Poddubnii's big draws. The 2♣ turn was safe, but the 6♦ river gave Poddubnii a flush and sent Jantos to the rail.
