McMillin showed {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} for a set, but Sirbu turned over a better set with {8-Clubs}{8-Spades}. McMillin seemed in good spirits despite the huge cooler and went to the cashier to collect the 19th place prize of €4,750.

A minute before this hand on the feature table, Gianny Dominique Morano was eliminated in 20th place at €4,750.

Courtney Gee

Patrick James West opened from early position to 75,000 before Oscar Casado Diaz from one seat over raised it to 200,000. The action folded to Courtney Gee in the big blind.

Gee tanked for a moment before she declared herself all-in for over a million. West quicklly folded and Casado Diaz began counting his chips before eventually making the call for about 690,000 in chips.

Oscar Casado Diaz: {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}
Courtney Gee: {J-Hearts}{J-Spades}

Gee was in a world of hurt with her jacks not matching up well against her opponents queens. Casado Diaz was awarded a huge double up after the board ran out {4-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{5-Spades}{k-Spades}.

The action folded around to Courtney Gee in the small blind who limp-called a bet from Joel Isla for 55,000.

Gee check-called a bet of 55,000 from Isla after the flop came [as8ch4]. She check-called again, this time for 200,000 after the {5-Clubs} appeared on the turn.

The {5-Diamonds} paired the board on the river and Gee checked for a third time. Isla fired out for 350,000. Gee let some of her time bank wind down before she made the call.

Gee had {A-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} for two pair. However, Isla had {A-Hearts}{8-Spades} for a better two pair and won a huge pot off of Gee.

Level 22 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante

Luigi Andrea Shehadeh opened the button for 40,000 and got calls from Marc Gonzalez on the button and Sergiu Sirbu from the small blind.

All three players checked the {2-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{q-Spades} flop before Gonzalez jammed for 159,000 after the {10-Hearts} appeared on the turn when the action was checked around to him.

Sirbu folded, while Shehadeh used a bit of his clock before tossing in a time bank chip. He asked for a chip count before he eventually folded.

Gonzalez smiled and showed he had the {10-Clubs} for second pair at a minimum.

At the same time on another table, Surinder Sunar was the first elimination of the day in 27th place for €4,750.
