Alain Goldberg earned himself an extra €5,000 just by hanging on a few more minutes than Kevin MacPhee.

Goldberg: {a-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}
Ruzicka: {q-Hearts}{5-Hearts}

The board ran {q-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{6-Spades}{10-Hearts}{7-Hearts} to pair Ruzicka's queen.

Jacobson Turning the Screw

Level 20 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Martin Jacobson
Martin Jacobson

Martin Jacobson has just won a monster pot and is far and beyond the chip leader.

Jacobson has been putting pressure on everyone, first he shoved from the small blind and forced Bryn Kenney to fold, then he move in from the button and forced Kenney — again — and Jonathan Duhamel to muck their hands.

It is not just the short stacks he is bullying, he is also going for the throat of the biggest stacks, namely Alexandre Reard.

Timothy Reilly opened to 33,000 under the gun and after Vojtech Ruzicka folded Martin Jacobson called. Three players folded and it was up to Reard to act in the big blind. He checked his hole cards and raised to 75,000. Reilly folded but Jacobson called.

The already substantial pot grew even larger when Reard lead for 100,000 on the {9-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{j-Spades} flop. Jacobson called and the pot swelled even further. The {2-Diamonds} was met with another Reard bet, one for 180,000! The increased sized didn't deter Jacobson and he called.

The river was the {3-Diamonds} and now Reard checked. Jacobson, who must have cajones the size of basketballs, moved all-in! Reard removed his sunglasses and tried to study his opponent and replay the hand in his head. Eventually, around a minute after Jacobson's shove, Reard folded and left himself 460,000 chips.

Kenney Doubles: Duhamel Crippled

Level 20 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Bryn Kenney
Bryn Kenney

The talented Bryn Kenney is back in with a shout of this title after he doubled at the expense of Jonathan Duhamel.

Martin Jacobson opened to 32,000 from the cut-off before both players mentioned moved all in from the next two seats. Jacobson folded (pockets sixes he said).

Kenney: {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}
Duhamel: {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}

The board ran {10-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{a-Hearts}.

Kenney was all smiles while the Team PokerStars Pro sat in silence.

Jonathan Duhamel Eliminated in 7th Place (€38,000)

Level 20 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Jonathan Duhamel
Jonathan Duhamel

The last remaining Team PokerStars Pro, Jonathan Duhamel, has been eliminated and we are down to six in the High Roller.

Duhamel open-shoved for 55,000 from the cutoff and Steven Silverman asked how much the bet was.

"860,000" joked Duhamel, prompting laughter from the rest of the table.

Silverman called, as did Timothy Reilly in the big blind; it was not looking good for Duhamel.

The dealer spread the {9-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{8-Clubs} flop onto the table and Reilly check-called a 45,000 bet from Silverman. That was the last of the aggression as the active duo checked down the {6-Hearts} turn and {a-Clubs} river.

Duhamel: {K-Hearts}{10-Spades}
Reilly: {J-Spades}{9-Spades}
Silverman: {4-Hearts}{4-Clubs}

Reilly's pair of nines won the pot and resigned Duhamel to seventh place. Maybe with the €38,000 he can purchase a new leather jacket here in Deauville, to replace the one he misplaced a couple of nights ago.

Level: 21

Blinds: 10,000/20,000

Ante: 3,000

Nice Runout for Silverman; Reard Left Short

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Alexandre Reard came into the final table as the second biggest stack, but he's the short stack after losing a sizable pot to Steven Silverman.

The two players were in the blinds and took to a {3-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{a-Hearts} flop where they checked. The board ran out {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts} and Silverman bet 42,000 and 125,000 on each street. Reard called both times and mucked upon seeing his opponent's {a-Spades}{7-Diamonds} for a full house.

Silverman Shoves on Reilly

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Steven Silverman has certainly held his own on this final table, showing why he has almost $850,000 in live tournament winnings.

Silverman opened to 43,000 in late position and met some resistance from Timothy Reilly in the blinds. Reilly three-bet to 108,000 putting Silverman under pressure. Silverman took a few moments to compose himself before four-betting all-in, which resulted in a quick fold from Reilly, who will look for a better spot to commit his stack.
