Artur Wasek Eliminated in 4th Place (€280,000)

Wasek - 4th place
Wasek - 4th place
Artur Wasek limped under the gun and Ilari Tahkokallio limped too on the button. Small blind arc Inizan raised and Kevin MacPhee gave up his big blind - but Wasek suddenly pushed for 1,655,000. Tahkokallio folded, but Inizan made the call.

Two monstrous hands!

Inizan: {K-Clubs} {K-Spades}
Wasek: at risk and in trouble with {Q-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds}

Flop: {9-Clubs} {J-Clubs} {10-Diamonds}

A cheer erupted from the Polish end of the rail, as Wasek flopped an up-and-down straight draw

Turn: {2-Spades}

River: {4-Clubs}

No dreadful outdraws for Inizan as his kings held up to put him on 5,960,000. Wasek however was busto in fourth place - the deepest a Pole has ever gone in an EPT main event.

From under the gun, Kevin MacPhee raised to 270,000. Artur Wasek called from the button and the two saw a flop of {J-Spades}{9-Spades}{2-Spades}. Both players checked and then the turn added the {10-Spades} to the board. With four spades on board, MacPhee fired 420,000 and Wasek folded his hand.

May the Fours Be With You

Ilari Tahkokallio (small blind) and Marc Inizan (big blind) limp/checked their way to a {3-Spades} {9-Hearts} {5-Clubs} flop which they both checked.

They saw a {2-Clubs} turn and Tahkokallio bet out 160,000; Inizan called and they saw a {3-Clubs} river which both checked again. Tahkokallio flipped pocket fours, and they were good to beat Inizan's king-high.

MacPhee Back on Top

Ilari Tahkokallio checked a {K-Clubs} {9-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} flop. Kevin MacPhee bet 360,000, and Ilari called. Both checked the {5-Clubs} turn to see the {K-Diamonds} on the river for free. Tahkokallio checked to try to see a free showdown as well, but MacPhee had other ideas. He bet 880,000, and Tahkokallio paid him off. MacPhee's {K-Hearts} {4-Hearts} was good for the nice pot, and with it, he regained the chip lead. MacPhee's now on 11.7 million to Tahkokallio's 10.9 million.
