Morten Mortensen Eliminated in 10th Place (€55,100)
After John Juanda had opened with a raise, a short-stacked Morten Mortensen moved all in for 235,000. Juanda didn't seem thrilled, but made a hesitant call nonetheless.
Showdown
Juanda: 
Mortensen: 
Mortensen was ahead, but Juanda got a good sweat with the 
flop as either a deuce, five or four would give him the win. The 
wasn't what he needed, but the 
river was. Mortensen closed his eyes for a brief moment before exiting the Main Stage in 10th place for €55,100.

Duda Doubles; Mortensen Crippled
After John Juanda opened from the cutoff and Morten Mortensen three-bet from the button, Antonin Duda four-bet all in for 1.365 million from the small blind. Juanda quickly got out of the way, and Mortensen tanked for a solid two minutes before making the call.
| Showdown |
|---|
Mortensen:   |
Duda:   |
Mortensen made a good call with the best hand, but Duda was drawing live. The 
flop didn't hit Duda directly, but it gave him both an open-ended straight draw and a flush draw. The latter was filled on the 
turn, and Mortensen would miss his ace-high flush redraw as the 
peeled off on the river.

Jonathan Karamalikis Eliminated in 11th Place (€46,700)
It was a cruel end for Jonathan Karamalikis. He fell to Ole Schemion after getting his chips with in great shape.
The Australian opened to 80,000 from under the gun and was three-bet to 185,000 from Schemion in the cut-off. Sinel Anton looked like he wanted to get involved but tank-folded to leave the action back on Karamalikis. He put in a four-bet to 265,000 and then snapped off when Schemion shoved.
Schemion:
Karamalikis: 
The board ran 
to hit the three-outer for the German's hand. Karamalikis was very gracious in defeat.

Jouhkimainen in Need of an Eight
We didn't catch the initial betting actions in the hand, but we do know Joni Jouhkimainen had put in a raise to 140,000 and John Juanda moved all in. Jouhkimainen proceeded to call off for 765,000 and discovered the bad news.
| Showdown |
|---|
Juanda:  |
Jouhkimainen:  |
Both players paired their ace on the 
flop, but Juanda's kicker had him well out in front. The turn meant Jouhkimainen needed one of the three remaining eights on the river to stay alive, and wouldn't you know it, the 
spiked on the river. Neither Jouhkimainen nor Juanda reacted at all, but the fact remained the former got lucky to double through the latter.
