Ronan Gilligan Eliminated in 10th Place (€4,750)

Level 27 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Ronan Gilligan
Ronan Gilligan

Thomas Gallagher opened up from late position and Ronan Gilligan called from the big blind.

Gallagher fired out a continuation bet of 250,000 after the flop came {Q-Clubs}{a-Spades}{2-Clubs} and got a call from his opponent. Gallagher then bet 500,000 after the {k-Hearts} appeared on the turn and Gilligan once again called.

The {a-Clubs} completed the board on the river and Gallagher declared himself all in for 1,750,000, which covered his opponent. Gilligan tanked for several minutes.

"That was the sickest card ever," said Gilligan with a look of disgust on his face.

He then said, "I think I am too big of a fish to fold," before speculating that his opponent had ace-king or ace-queen for the full house.

Gilligan eventually called, mucked his hand, and was eliminated in 10th place for €4,750 after Gallagher turned over {a-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} for the full house.

After the hand, the unofficial nine-handed final table which will be streamed under the Live Stream tab in our coverage began.

Kelleher Doubles Off Dowling With Aces

Level 29 : 60,000/120,000, 20,000 ante
Alan Kelleher
Alan Kelleher

Pat Dowling just won a hand off of Alan Kelleher and shortly after the favor was returned.

Dowling opened to 260,000 from early position and the action folded around to Kelleher in the small blind. Kelleher three-bet to 660,000 and Dowling called.

Dowling with {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts} flopped top pair on the {4-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{q-Clubs} flop, however, Kelleher was in better shape with an overpair with {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}. Dowling bet 400,000 and for 600,000 more after Kelleher declared himself all in for 1 million.

Kelleher's hand held after the {3-Hearts} on the turn and the {6-Clubs} on the river were of no help to Dowling.
