Dwan Leaves Dean on Fumes; Michalis Protopapas Eliminated in 25th Place (£3,250)
Jamie Dwan raised to 25,000 under the gun and picked up calls from Mario Trattou in early position, as well as Paul Vas Nunes and Santino Dean in the blinds.
The flop came 10♠6♣2♥ and Dean bet 75,000. Only Dwan called to the 5♦ turn, where Dean moved all in. Dwan snap-called.
Dean showed J♥J♣, but Dwan had A♥A♠. The river was the 3♥ and Dwan secured the pot. The stacks were counted down and Dean had Dwan's remaining 177,000 covered by just 10,000, leaving him with just one big blind.
At another table, Michalis Protopapas and Gerald McInally saw a flop of 10♠4♣9♦ with around 70,000 in the pot when Protopapas moved all in for 105,000 in the big blind. McInally called on the button.
Michalis Protopapas: Q♠10♣ 
Gerald McInally: 9♣9♥
Protopapas showed top pair, but McInally had flopped a set. The board ran out 8♣5♣ and Protopapas was sent to the rail.
