A short-stacked Sebastien Bidinger moved all-in from the button, William Johnson made the call from the big blind and the Frenchman did not like what he saw.
Bidinger:
Johnson:
Board:
No help came for either player but that meant Johnson's kicker played and the American took down the pot. We're now on a redraw for the final two tables.
We are short on actual detail because this elimination occurred at exactly the same time as elimination number 18 and we were covering them both simultaneously.
There was a raising war pre flop between Lucien Cohen and Andrzej Nowak-Rogozinski and the end result was an all-in for both players with Cohen covering Nowak-Rogozinski.

Cohen's full house disposes of Andrzej Nowak-Rogozinski
He had been patient for a very long time but eventually Riccardo Giacalone found the courage and the cards to move all-in for the third time today. The action folded around to Alex Wice in the big blind who went through quite a bizarre routine. Wice started to do calculations with his finger and he was using the table as his maths board. He dragged his finger along as if he was writing. He did some dots, underlined them then some dashes and eventually liked the results because he made the call.
Wice:
Giacalone:
The flop stung Giacalone immediately the turn was an irrelevant and the river an equally as irrelevant . Wice won the hand with two pair and Giacalone was out of the tournament.
Zimnan Ziyard got his last eight or so big blinds in with and found himself in some trouble against Kenny Hallaert's . The board ran out an entirely unhelpful and Ziyard thus became our 21st place finisher.
