Geir Wold Eliminated in 24th Place (€1,500)

Frank Visser

Level 18 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Chipleader Asgeir Lund raised to 35,000 under the gun. It folded to Geir Wold on the button, who moved all in for 335,000. Lund quickly called without asking for a count, and the players tabled their cards.

Geir Wold: A♦Q♥ All in
Asgeir Lund: K♦J♣

The Q♣5♠5♥ flop was a good start for Wold, leaving Lund with fewer outs. With only a king as a direct out, Lund was drawing thin, but he drilled the K♥ turn for a huge lead.

The 3♥ river could not save Wold, who departed on the first hand of Day 3.

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Erik Sonsteby open-jammed his stack of 115,000 from the hijack. The action folded to Jo Andersen in the big blind, who eyed the all-in before making the call.

Erik Sonsteby: A♦2♠ All in
Jo Andersen: K♠10♣

Andersen paired his king on the 7♥6♥K♥ flop. No chop was possible after the J♠ turn, and the 8♠ river did not bring Sonsteby his desired ace. Sonsteby took his exit in 23rd place while Andersen joined the seven-figure club.

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Fredrik Kaarvall open-jammed his final 285,000 in middle position. It then folded to Kai Tiainen in the big blind, who called.

Fredrik Kaarvall: 5♥5♦ All in
Kai Tiainen: A♠K♣

Kaarvall flopped a set on 5♠8♠6♠. The 7♦ turn brought some chop outs, but the 4♠ river made Tiainen a flush to secure the elimination of the final Swede in the tournament.

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Preflop, Paul Solovjev got his stack of 460,000 in the middle, being looked up by Asgeir Lund in the small blind.

Paul Solovjev: 2♠2♣ All in
Asgeir Lund: A♦K♥

Solovjev's ducks remained ahead on the 7♥3♣9♣ turn, but Lund's big slick struck on the K♦ turn. His top pair remained best on the 8♠ river, seeing him eliminate yet another player and cross the three-million mark, over four times the average stack.

Runar Runarsson Eliminated in 20th Place (€2,025)

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Asgeir Lund opened from the button before Runar Runarsson jammed in his stack of 510,000 from the small blind. Lund snap-called, just as he had said he would do after folding to Runarsson's previous jam.

Runar Runarsson: Q♠Q♦ All in
Asgeir Lund: A♠J♠

Runarsson had a good lead with his ladies, and Lund received no help on the 8♣2♣9♦ flop. The 7♥ turn gave the chipleader a gutshot straight draw, however, and it was completed when the 10♦ river hit the board.

The table could only laugh as Lund seemed unstoppable. Meanwhile, a bewildered Runarsson spent a few minutes in his seat before he went up to collect his payout.

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Paul Groven shipped in his final 10 big blinds or so preflop, and he was up against Edd-Christian Gerhardsen.

Paul Groven: Ax6x
Edd-Christian Gerhardsen: 7x7x

Groven could not find an ace on the subsequent runout, ending his Main Event run in 19th place.

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Guillermo Gordo raised to 40,000 under the gun. Monica Vaka then three-bet to 120,000 on the button, and Martin Rasch called all in for 60,000 in the big blind. Gordo got his 2♦2♣ out of the pot as Rasch and Vaka showed down.

Martin Rasch: Q♦J♣ All in
Monica Vaka: A♠K♥

The board ran out an inconsequential 4♣8♠8♦7♣10♦, sending Rasch to the rail in 18th as Vaka eclipsed a million in chips.

Level 20 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Edd-Christian Gerhardsen moved in his stack of 515,000 preflop, and Magnus Pukk called him with a covering stack.

Edd-Christian Gerhardsen: A♥Q♠ All in
Magnus Pukk: 8♠8♥

Gerhardsen failed to pair his hole cards on the 6♣5♣K♥K♠J♣ board, seeing Pukk win the massive flip to eliminate the Day 1 chipleader in 17th.

The remaining 16 players were redrawn across two tables.

Level 20 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Jesse Huostila moved in preflop for about seven big blinds. Asgeir Lund made the call, and the players tabled their cards.

Jesse Huostila: K♠Q♠ All in
Asgeir Lund: A♠10♠

Huostila shot ahead as he paired on the Q♥7♠J♦ flop. The A♦ turn upgraded Lund to a higher pair, however, and Huostila could not hit the 8♣ river.

He was eliminated in 16th place and was the first player to depart from the final two tables.

Level 20 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Guillermo Gordo raised his button to 60,000. Esa Turpeinen called in the big blind, and the two went to a flop of Q♥7♣6♣. Turpeinen quickly moved in his remaining 170,000 chips, and Gordo snap-called.

Esa Turpeinen: Q♦9♠ All in
Guillermo Gordo: 7♠6♠

Turpeinen's top pair had run into the two pair of Gordo. Neither the A♣ turn nor the 3♣ river improved Turpeinen's hand, sending him to the rail in 15th.
