If I was a player still left in the field I would not want to be a player on the feature table right now, as that's where most of the eliminations are happening. It also means we keep getting incomplete information on the hands as well.
What we do know of Geert-Jan Potijk's exit is that he three-bet shoved with from the small blind after a cut-off raise. It was a case of bad timing for the Dutchman though as Daniel Gomez was waiting in the big blind with pocket queens. The board ran to improve neither player's hand.

What were we telling you about the TV table? Ben Vinson didn't take long to follow Geert-Jan Potijk off the stage after another badly timed move.
"Redbull" Robbie who's announcing the action for the TV recording told us that Vinson shoved with and was called by Andoni Larrabe holding pocket nines. Vinson received no help and looked understandably glum afterwards.

Alex Mostafavi raised to 80,000 on the button, Vadzim Markushevksi three-bet to 190,000 in the small blind and Mostafavi performed his usual act of counting his chips over and over again, before finally folding.
There was a little justice in this hand for Clayton Mozdzen, but Anatoly Gurtovoy won't want to hear that as he was on the bad side of the luck to bust.
Gurtovoy raised to 80,000 from early position and was only called by Mozdzen from the button en route to a flop.
Gurtovoy checked to face a 100,000 bet that he raised up to 250,000. Mozdzen shoved and the Russian called all-in.
