Wissing Unwell

Mads Wissing opened the pot to 100,000, and Martin Finger came along as the lone caller. The flop came {10-Clubs} {2-Hearts} {Q-Clubs}, and Wissing continued out with another 130,000. Finger made a quick call, and the {Q-Hearts} paired the board on the turn. The action continued with another bet of 250,000 from Wissing, and Finger once again came along without too much deliberation.

That brought them to the {7-Spades} river, and the two were content to check it down.

At showdown, Wissing could only show up {A-Hearts} {9-Hearts}, and Finger's {6-Clubs} {6-Spades} sent the chips to his corner. Wissing dropped more than half his stack on that hand, and he's got about 420,000 left now.

Patrick Renkers Eliminated in 9th Place (€48,000)

Level 27 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Patrick Renkers - 9th place
Patrick Renkers - 9th place

Guillem Cavaller raised to 105,000 in early position, and Martin Finger flatted two seats over. Next door, though, Patrick Renkers squeezed in a reraise to 185,000, and that folded Cavaller out of the way. Finger wasn't going anywhere, though, and he shoved all in over the top. The call came instantly, and the two men were very close in chips as they turned over their coin flip.

Showdown
Finger: {A-Hearts} {K-Hearts}
Renkers: {Q-Hearts} {Q-Spades}

Finger grabbed the lead as the dealer gave him a friendly {2-Hearts} {9-Clubs} {A-Diamonds} flop, and Renkers would not be able to catch back up. The turn {J-Diamonds} and river {A-Spades} completed the board, and the Dutchman could not find any love from the Ladies. When the ~2.9-million-chip stacks were counted down, Renkers was covered by just a few chips, and he's been eliminated in ninth place.

Day 4 of the 2011 PokerStars.com EPT Prague Main Event has concluded and the official final table is set. Heading the way is Martin Finger with 5.8 million in chips. He's closely trailed by Nicolas Levi with 5.69 million.

When the day began, 31 players remained. The first player eliminated on the day was Sharon Volfer. That elimination was followed by the busting of Team PokerStars Pro Juan Manuel Pastor in 30th place. The other Team Pro still remaining, Jude Ainsworth, ran all the way down to the final two tables before he fell in 14th place.

Other notables falling short of the final table included former EPT champion Mike McDonald (27th), Australia's Jason Gray (19th) and young British superstar Chris Moorman (15th).

On the final elimination of the day, start-of-the-day chip leader Patrick Renkers was eliminated. His ninth-place finish solidified an official final table appearance for the other eight players at EPT Prague and sent everyone home from the day.
