Hand #100

Level 20 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

The 100th hand of the final just happened and was uneventful as Dan Smith got a walk. With that said, it is already more than the 80 or so hands that happened at the PokerStars and Monte-Carlo® Casino EPT Grand Final Super High Roller.

Level: 20

Blinds: 40,000/80,000

Ante: 10,000

Here's the Deal

Level 19 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

The two players have reached a deal. Dan Smith will take home €862,925, JC Alvarado will get €788,634, and the duo will play for €100,000 and the Shamballa Jewels bracelet.

Mike Watson Eliminated in 3rd Place (€399,500)

Short-stacked Mike Watson raised to 160,000 from the button and inspired Dan Smith to fold the small blind. JC Alvarado hesitated for a moment in the big before moving all in, and Watson called off.

Showdown
Watson: {A-Clubs}{8-Spades}
Alvarado: {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}

Watson got it in good with ace high, but the {3-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} spelled disaster as Alvarado paired his king. The {5-Hearts} turn left Watson in need of an ace on the river, but it wasn't in the cards as the harmless {7-Spades} rolled off.
