Tom-Aksel Bedell raised to 100,000 in the cutoff. Joni Jouhkimainen then three-bet to 345,000 on the button, which Bedell called.
The flop fell K♥K♦8♥. Bedell checked to Jouhkimainen, who shoved his remaining 310,000 in the middle. Bedell quickly called and the cards were tabled.
Joni Jouhkimainen: A♦A♠10♦6♣
Tom-Aksel Bedell: A♥9♥5♦2♦
Jouhkimainen's aces were up against the flush draw of Bedell. Bedell hit his flush on the 10♥ turn, and the 3x river could not provide Jouhkimainen with a full house, knocking him out.

"Deleted" showed his Q♥Q♣10♥6♣ for queens and sevens before departing as the first player in the money.

Level 15
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Tomas Ribeiro was automatically all in in the big blind for 20,000. Tom-Aksel Bedell then raised the pot in the hijack, forcing out the rest of the table.
Tomas Ribeiro: Q♦7♠7♣3♣
Tom-Aksel Bedell: A♦Q♠Q♣5♣
Despite Bedell's enthusiastic calls for a seven, the J♥2♣10♠4♣Q♥ board brought none. Bedell hit the final queen in the deck on the river to make a set, sending out Ribeiro as the bubble boy.
The remaining 23 players have been guaranteed a min-cash of €22,000.
