Team PokerStars Pro David Williams Eliminated in 24th Place (€36,700)

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
David Williams - 24th Place
David Williams - 24th Place

The last Team PokerStars Pro in the field has been eliminated.

David Williams got his stack of 285,000 all in preflop and received a call from Dani Stern.

Williams: {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}
Stern: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}

It was a classic flip, but not after the flop came down {9-Spades}{k-Spades}{3-Hearts}. Stern flopped a set and became a massive favorite. When the {5-Clubs} appeared on the turn, Williams was drawing dead. The Team Pro immediately exited the stage and didn't even stick around to see the river, which of course was a meaningless card.

Williams will take home €36,700 for his 24th-place finish.

Shelly Races for Tournament Life

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Conor Shelly got his short stack of 180,000 all in preflop and was racing against Matias Ruzzi.

Ruzzi: {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}
Shelly: {j-Spades}{10-Diamonds}

It was a race, and things looked good for Shelly when the {10-Clubs}{a-Spades}{6-Spades} flop paired his ten. The {3-Diamonds} turn meant all he needed to do was dodge an eight on the river, which is just what he did when the {9-Clubs} blanked.

Roca Finds a Fish Hook

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Mayu Roca opened for 32,000 under the gun and was met by a three-bet to 88,000 from the cutoff. The button and both blinds folded, and then Roca thought for a bit before announcing that he was all in for 465,000. Firsau, who placed tenth in this very event last year, snap-called.

Firsau: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}
Roca: {q-Spades}{j-Spades}

Firsau seemed distraught that Roca was drawing to two live cards, and rightly so as the {j-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{3-Hearts} flop paired one of them. Firsau rolled his eyes and walked away from the table in frustration. He wasn't there to watched the dealer burn and turn the {4-Spades}, but he returned in time to see the {4-Clubs} blank on the river.

Squeezey Does It

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Eros Nastasi raised to 33,000 in the cutoff and was called by Mayu Roca on the button and Ivan Soshnikov in the small blind. Heinz Kamutzki then came in with a three-bet to 116,000 in the big blind and managed to force the other three players out.

Kamutzki's Big River Bet Gets the Job Done

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

With around 350,000 already in the pot and a board reading {10-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{4-Spades}, Heinz Kamutzki bet a hefty 285,000 into Miroslav Alilovic, who hit the tank hard. Eventually the Frenchman opted to lay it down and Kamutzki took down the pot.
