Luc Greenwood raised to 28,000 and Kenny Hallaert moved all in for 137,000 from one seat over. Goran Mandic on the button moved all in over the top and Kai Lehto in the small blind called all in for 113,000, Greenwood folded.

Kai Lehto: {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}
Kenny Hallaert: {A-Spades}{10-Spades}
Goran Mandic: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}

"I guess I don't have the best hand," Hallaert joked before all cards had been turned over. The board came {7-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} and Lehto secured the triple up on the river. All remaining 16 players will now redraw to the last two tables.

Orpen Kisacikoglu made it 16,000 to go first to act and Gary Hasson called out of the big blind, Kisacikoglu glanced over at the stack of his opponent and they proceeded to a flop of {K-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}. Hasson moved all in for around 95,000 and Kisacikoglu called with the superior stack.

Gary Hasson: {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}
Orpen Kisacikoglu: {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}

The {3-Diamonds} on the turn immediately left Hasson drawing dead and the bubble was burst, the {4-Clubs} river was a mere formality.

Mateos Doubles on the Bubble

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

In the second hand of hand-for-hand mode, Adrian Mateos raised to 18,000 from early position and Michael Soyza moved all in out of the small blind. Mateos snap-called and the showdown took place once the other two tables had finished their current hand.

Adrian Mateos: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}
Michael Soyza: {J-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

The {J-Spades}{6-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} flop gave Soyza some more outs with his pair of jacks, but the {9-Diamonds} turn and {7-Hearts} river brought no upset to let Mateos double on the money bubble.

Chidwick Eliminated; Money Bubble Reached

Stephen Chidwick

It folded Bahram Chobineh in the small blind who limped. "It's nothing personal," said Filipe Oliveira who moved all in. Chobineh folded and Oliveira showed {6-Clubs}{6-Spades}

The very next hand it folded to Oliveira, this time in the small blind, who took a look at Chidwick's stack before moving all in. Chidwick snap-called, turning over {a-Clubs}{j-Spades}

Oliveira had live cards with {k-Spades}{q-Hearts} but a queen on the {8-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} turned the tables on the Brit. The {2-Spades}{2-Clubs} runout didn't help him and he was eliminated.

That brings the tournament down to its final 18 players, with only 17 guaranteed a €18,900 payout.

After the {4-Hearts} river, Kanit let his shot clock run down to two seconds and announced a bet of 145,000. Vieira gave it some thought and folded to forfeit the pot.
