Ampelikiotis Doubles Through Hotvedt

Maxime Taldir

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Moments after he was moved from one table to the other, Helfner Augusto Hotvedt called from the big blind after Theodoros Ampelikiotis in middle position shoved for 1,190,000.

Theodoros Ampelikiotis: K♥J♦ All in
Helfner Augusto Hotvedt: Q♥J♥

The dealer fanned a board of 6♦3♥A♣5♥7♠, so the situation didn't change and Ampelikiotis doubled up.

Alessandro Comi Eliminated in 11th Place (€4,200)

Maxime Taldir

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Everybody folded to Alessandro Comi in the small blind, who shoved for 800,000. Tiago Serrazina in the big blind looked at his cards, and called.

Alessandro Comi: 7♦2♠ All in
Tiago Serrazina: A♣Q♠

Comi's move to steal the big blind didn't work, and even if he flopped a pair on 2♥5♠4♣, he was eliminated because of the A♠ turn and the 4♦ river.

One more elimination is now needed to reach the final table.

Gian Luca Proietti Eliminated in 12th Place (€3,600)

Maxime Taldir

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Down to 310,000, Gian Luca Proietti shoved from under the gun. Everybody folded to Tiago Serrazina in the big blind, who went into the tank but eventually made the call.

Gian Luca Proietti: 10♥10♣ All in
Tiago Serrazina: K♦6♦

Serrazina made a face when he discovered his opponent's cards, and his smile wasn't back after the Q♥A♦4♥ flop.

However, he found a flush draw with the 7♦ turn. And the flush was complete thanks to the J♦ on the river.
