A short-stacked David "Devilfish" Ulliott moved all in from middle position for his last 65,000 and cleared the field all the way around to Sorel Mizzi in the big blind. Mizzi looked down at his cards and liked what he saw as he splashed in some chips.

Mizzi:
As he is prone to do, Ulliott began to mumble to himself, but his dour mood turned around when the flop gave him trips. The turn improved him to a full house, and after the completed the board on the river, Ulliott sat up straight and pulled in the pot.
There's been several all-in shoves so far this level - from Joe Kuether, Simon Higgins and Team PokerStars Pro Luca Pagano. No-one has made a call. Yet.
On the river of a board, it was checked to Jason Lavallee who bet 83,000. Alexander Roumeliotis folded quickly in the small blind but Frederik Jensen tanked for several minutes, eventually folding.

Tony Bloom opened for 12,000 from the cutoff and a short-stacked Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier three-bet all in for 110,000. Bloom made the call and the cards were turned up.

Bloom:
Grospellier got it in good but the Team PokerStars Pro did not seem happy when the flop came down to give Bloom trips. The turn left ElkY drawing dead and he was headed out the door even before the completed the board on the river.
The stacks were verified and Bloom actually had a little less than the Frenchman. The staff attempted to track Grospellier down, and whether or not they couldn't find him or he opted not to return to 2,500 remains unclear. What is known is that after attempts were made, action resumed with the last of Grospellier's chips going in for his small blind. Since he wasn't there his hand was killed and he was officially eliminated from the tournament.
