Claus Nielsen Eliminated in 10th

Claus Nielsen
Claus Nielsen
Juan Maceiras raised to 26,000 and Michael Schulze called. Claus Nielsen moved all in from the small blind. Juan passed and Schulze made the call.

Claus: {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}
Michael: {J-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}

The flop removed some of Nielsen's outs when it came down {Q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} and the turn finished the hand as it was the {6-Diamonds}. Schulze completed the flush. The river was a meaningless overkill {J-Spades}.

Claus Nielsen is eliminated in 10th place earning $53,657.

We're Done?

Michael Schulze - Day 3 Chip Leader
Michael Schulze - Day 3 Chip Leader
In what was perhaps the fastest Day 3 in EPT history (approx. two hours and seven minutes), we've gone from 26 players to nine, setting up tomorrow's nine-handed final table.

Play will recommence tomorrow afternoon at 2:00 p.m. (GMT +1), at which time our nine finalists will play down to one.

Someone will walk away with $2,154,000 Polish Zlotys, roughly $946,269 U.S., and PokerNews will be on site bringing you all of the action live from the tournament floor. We hope you'll join us tomorrow afternoon for the conclusion of the 2008 EPT Polish Open! Stay tuned for the names and chip counts of all nine finalists, along with their final table seat assignments.

From Warsaw, Poland - good night and good luck!
