Jakub Skurzynski Eliminated in 9th Place (€18,900)
Level 33
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
After losing two sizeable pots, Jakub Skurzynski was left with 5,300,000 and moved all-in from under the gun. Action folded to Rosario Saddemi in the cutoff, who announced all-in for 7,625,000. Lulei Hu, on the button, asked for a count before making the call. No further players joined the hand, and all three hands were tabled.
Jakub Skurzynski: Q♣Q♥
Rosario Saddemi: A♣A♥
Lulei Hu: K♦K♥
Three premium hands collided, with Skurzynski needing to improve to stay in the tournament. Hu was also hoping to come out on top and eliminate both opponents.
However, the 2♣7♥3♦5♦8♥ runout changed nothing. Saddemi's pocket aces held, earning him a near triple-up, while Skurzynski was eliminated and Hu was left with a short stack.
