Franck Fellous Eliminated in 23rd Place (€11,494)

Balazs Botond raised first-in from the button, and Franck Fellous moved all in for an additional 65,000. Botond had the chips to call, and he did just that, tabling {Q-Hearts} {7-Spades}. The lead wasn't comfortable, but Fellous was hoping his {K-Spades} {9-Spades} could stay ahead to keep him alive.

It wasn't in the cards, though. The dealer spread out a board of {6-Clubs} {10-Spades} {6-Diamonds} {9-Hearts} {8-Diamonds} to give Botond the straight and the knockout.

Franck Fellous becomes our 23rd-place finisher, pocketing €11,494 for his efforts over the past two days.
