Vaillancourt Vanquished by Zhou

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Action folded to Noah Vaillancourt in the small blind, and it appeared he raised all in for roughly 85,000. China's Quan Zhou called from the big blind, and Vaillancourt didn't seem excited.

Vaillancourt: {q-Clubs}{j-Spades}
Zhou: {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}

Vaillancourt was behind, but he was drawing to two overs. Unfortunately for him, the board ran out a dry {8-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{4-Hearts}{k-Hearts} and Vaillancourt left the EPT11 Grand Final Main Event empty handed.

Bubble Pressure Heightens

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

With the bubble rapidly approaching, players are tightening up at the prospect of securing some cash for nearly three days of play. Pierre Neuville opened to 12,500 from middle position, with Juan Martin Pastor three-betting to 30,000. Neuville tanked for nearly four minutes, gesturing to the pot, counting his chips, before folding his {J-Diamonds}{J-Spades} face up for the table to see.

"Pick one?" said Pastor, spreading his cards for Neuville to chose. The Frenchman turned over {K-Spades} and seemed happy enough at his fold.

Drinan Over Peters in Clash of American High Rollers

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Connor Drinan opened to 11,000 and saw David Peters three-bet to 24,000 on the button. Drinan said he was all in, and Peters quickly called off for about 90,000.

Peters: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}
Drinan: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

The classic race, and things were going Peters' way on the {5-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{8-Spades} board, but a {k-Diamonds} river doomed him.

Ami Barer Eliminated

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Ami Barer
Ami Barer

Right after the break, Ami Barer hit the rail. His former table mates Jeffrey Hakim and Steve O'Dwyer gave us the details.

Barer shoved his last 47,500 to the middle from the hijack, Joao Simao in the cutoff made the call. Barer turned out to have {A-}{4-}, and wasn't able to out run Simao's pocket aces.

With Hani Bahna busting at almost the same time, the tournament is down to 84 players - 5 away from the money.
