Sigurd Eskeland Eliminated in 18th Place (€20,000)

Sigurd Eskeland opened the pot with a raise to 53,000, and it would turn out to be a fateful move. Saar Wilf put in the call from the next seat over, and the two men went heads-up to the flop.

It came {K-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} {7-Hearts}, and Eskeland continued out with another 72,000. Wilf put 135,000 into the pot, an under-raise. He was required to make it 144,000 for a legal raise, and Eskeland responded with an all-in reraise for about 500,000 total. Snap-call! Cards on their backs, gents.

Showdown
Eskeland: {A-Diamonds} {9-Clubs}
Wilf: {A-Clubs} {A-Hearts}

Wilf's sneaky aces had him a near-lock for the knockout, and the {3-Hearts} turn made that a certainty. The river {K-Diamonds} was unimportant, and Eskeland has been sent on his way by the chip leader. For the 2010 bracelet winner, it's a small cash of €20,000. For the chip leader, it's another boost to his already towering stack. We count him around 4.9 million now, but we'll try to get a better count during the upcoming break.
