Philip Meulyzer Eliminated in 6th Place (€65,000)

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 4,000 ante

Philip Meulyzer, one of the three Belgians at this final table, has been eliminated in sixth place, a finish that will net him €65,000.

He had been short for a while and the only move he could really make was to push or fold. Three hands before his bust out he had moved all in preflop for 275,000 and picked up the 84,000 in blinds and antes, joking that he felt like he had doubled up.

Just moments ago his fellow Belgian, Kevin Vandersmissen raised to 80,000 from the button and Meulyzer moved all in from the big blind. Vandersmissen asked for a count and when he was told it was 317,000 he called, saying his hand "flopped well."

Meulyzer: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}
Vandersmissen:{q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

The flop of {7-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{a-Clubs} saw both players make a pair but Meulyzer was the man in command. The {4-Clubs} turn failed to alter anything but the {q-Clubs} on the river gave Vandermissen two pair and the win.

As he left the table Vladimir Geshkenbein gave him a glass of whiskey, a nice little bonus in my opinion
