Marcel Koller Eliminated in 12th Place (€20,400)
flop. Baekke bet out 60,000 but Koller made it 155,000. Back to Baekke, who eyed up Koller's stack. "You got like 600 more?" he enquired and thought about it.At this point there was a deafening crunching noise in the tournament area; certain press members tensed up in case it was a repeat of the shenanigans at EPT Berlin, but it was just the speaker system malfunctioning. Over at the next table Alain Medesan lamented, "I raise and automatically everything goes wrong. I no more raise."
So back to the feature table, and Baekke flat-called the raise. Onwards.
They saw a
turn and Baekke now bet out 160,000. Koller moved all in, Baekke instacalled, and they were on their backs.Baekke:
for a turned gutshot straightKoller:
for flopped top pair and was already wandering off muttering, "F***ing...."River:
Koller came back to shake hands, and he will not be making back-to-back final tables.
