"All in and a call," we heard a dealer yell. When we arrived, Ramzi Jelassi has ![]()
laid out in front of him while Bastian Fischer held the inferior ![]()
. The board read ![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
, and while we're not positive, we believe the chips went in preflop. Whatever the case, Fischer saw his stack of approximately 200,000 shipped over to Jelassi.

flop laid in the middle of the felt, Fabrice Soulier in the small blind, Vadim Belov all-in in the big blind and Dany Parlafes on the button as the active players.

Belov was eliminated, but as he left the tournament area Parlafes informed Soulier, "You could not have played that any worse. If you play a hand well I will complement you, but that was not good."
"Thank you!" replied a defiant Soulier before turning to his fellow countryman Jonathan Khalifa and saying, "We have Italians and Romanians her. We must fight!"

Georgios Stefanopoulos is somehow still in the tournament, the Greek short-stack refusing to laydown and die — not literally, obviously.
Stefanopoulos was a tiny stack as the bubble burst, but then doubled, then lost a few chips, then doubled again etc etc. Now he has just doubled again when his ![]()
ran into the ![]()
of Mads Amot and the board ran out ![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
.
With 30,000 in the pot and a flop of ![]()
![]()
, Denys Drobyna checked and opened the door for Aristeidis Pantelias to move all in for 65,500 from the cutoff. Drobyna thought for about 30 seconds before making the call, and he was glad he did as his ![]()
was out in front of Pantelias' ![]()
.
The
gave Pantelias an open-ended straight draw, but it would not come in as the
blanked on the river. Pantelias shook hands with his opponent and simply said, "Good luck."
