Cavaller's Double

Nicolas Levi called a Martin Finger raise of 75,000 before the flop, and Ari Engel squeezed in a reraise to 170,000 in position. Action came to the small blind, and Guillem Cavaller spent a while in the tank before shoving all in for 511,000 total. Finger snap-called the shove, and the rest of the table folded out of the way.

Showdown
Finger: {10-Clubs} {10-Hearts}
Cavaller: {Q-Spades} {Q-Diamonds}

Cavaller's overpair held strong as the board ran {5-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} {A-Hearts} {A-Spades} {4-Hearts}, and he's found a much-needed double to move back over the million-chip mark.

Finger Getting Frisky

Martin Finger is trying to hold things together over there, but it seems like the wheels have begun to come off just a bit. Or else he's consciously kicked into hyper gear.

After dropping a couple big pots in this level and having some difficulty maneuvering his big stack, we picked up another big pot brewing before the flop. It was Guillem Cavaller who opened to 60,000 in middle position, and Finger decided to tangle again. He three-bet to 140,000, but Cavaller came right back over the top with another raise to 300,000 straight. Finger was having none of it, though, and he shoved all in with his covering stack. Cavaller insta-folded, so perhaps Finger knows something we don't.

As the dealer pushed him the pot, he flashed his {4-Spades} {6-Spades}.

Kimon Lehmann Eliminated in 12th Place (€35,000)

Kimon Lehmann - 12th Place
Kimon Lehmann - 12th Place

When we arrived at the table, Nicolas Levi had 400,000 in front of the betting line and Kimon Lehmann had 200,000 in front of the betting line. We missed the opening action, but Levi's reraised did get called and the two of them saw the flop come down {Q-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}.

Levi was first and asked for a count on Lehmann's stack. He had around 1.6 million and Levi decided to bet 356,000. Lehmann raised all in and Levi called.

Levi: {K-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}
Lehmann: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

The turn was the {5-Diamonds} and river the {J-Clubs} to allow Levi's kings to hold up. Lehmann was eliminated.

Finger in Freefall

Another relatively big pot has just been yanked from the stack of Martin Finger.

The table folded around to his small blind, and Finger shoved all in against Ignat Liviu. The Romanian had 460,000 chips left in the big blind. He looked at one card and made the call for his tournament life.

"You see an ace?" Finger asked, to which Liviu rolled over his {A-Clubs}.

"That's not good," Finger realized out lout as he showed his {A-Spades} {2-Clubs}. Everyone got to see Liviu's second card at the same time, and he peeled over the {K-Hearts} to give him the dominating {A-Clubs} {K-Hearts}.

The board ran out {3-Clubs} {Q-Clubs} {5-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} {7-Spades}, and Liviu has found his double. A frustrated Finger was forced to pay off another big debt, and hes fallen all the way back to about 1.56 million now.

Wissing Folds to Brosolo's Four-Bet Shove

From the cutoff seat, Yann Brosolo raised to 80,000. Mads Wissing was on the button and he reraised to 180,000. Play folded back to Brosolo and he took a minute before four-betting all in. Wissing had 920,000 behind and tanked for a couple of minutes. He grew rather uneasy in his chair and began squirming around a lot. Eventually, he folded and Brosolo won the pot.
