Talal Shakerchi raised 50,000 from the cutoff and Fabian Quoss made the call in the big blind to see a flop.
Quoss checked and Shakerchi bet 55,000 before the German check-raised to 135,000 with 370,000 behind. Shakerchi took a moment then moved all and Quoss snap-called.

Shakerchi had been caught but he still had a backdoor flush draw but predictably it didn't come on the turn or river.
This was the second to last hand before the break...counts to come.
JC Alvarado had limped in middle position and Dimitar Danchev moved all in behind him. Faraz Jaka then flat-called from the button and Alvarado released his hand.

Danchev:
The door card was an eight and the board came and the PCA Champion Danchev is the first elimination from this final table.
The third and final day of the EPT London High Roller is set to begin in an hour or so, and leading the remaining nine players is Talal Shakerchi.
