Schroer Shoves Again
Medesan Making Moves
Carson Flushes Chips Out of Bække
They saw a flop and it checked to Carson who bet 165,000. Strassmann folded but Bække called and they went heads up to the turn.
Both players checked the turn and Bække checked the river too. When Carson bet 415,000 Bække was left with a fairly big decision and eventually opted to call - but then mucked when Carson flipped for a flopped top pair, top kicker that had turned into a flush by the river.

Schroer:
Strassmann:
It was all over the flop as it rolled out . The turn card and river card were merely formalities as Jonathan Schroer hit the rail in 6th place.

Flop:
Medesan checked and Wheeler bet 140,000. Back to Medesan, who min-raised to 280,000. Back again to Wheeler, who reraised to 530,000. Medesan just flatted, and they moved to the turn.
Turn:

Wheeler: for two pair
Medesan: for a set
River:
Medesan doubled up to take the chip lead on 4.5 million. Wheeler meanwhile was virtually felted - he was left with just 145,000 after that.
Brent Wheeler Eliminated in 5th Place (€88,000)
The board rolled out and the pot was checked to the riber. Bække bet to isolate and successfully did so. He tabled and it was good, sending Wheeler to the slopes in 5th place.
