Zbikowski's Plan Fails, Busts in 72nd
Level 22
: 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Peter Eichhardt opened to 41,000 from the hijack and Rodney Ramalho in the cutoff three bet to 96,000. Mateusz Zbikowski in the big blind tanked for a long time and finally had the clock called on him. With 72 players left at the time, Zbikowski was waiting for someone to bust so he would take the higher pay out (72 paid €15,600, number 71 would receive €18,320).
With 10 seconds left he four bet to 216,000, with just about 50,000 behind. Eichhardt folded instantly, Ramalho moved in instantly.
Zbikowski again tanked for a couple of minutes, and again the clock was called. He eventually called all in and soon got the bad news.
Rodney Ramalho: 
Mateusz Zbikowski: 
The board came 
and Zbikowski made his exit in 72nd place, netting him €15,600.
