Liviu Ignat Eliminated in 25th Place

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Liviu Ignat
Liviu Ignat

Muhyedine Fares opened the hand with a raise to 28,000 and his neighbor Liviu Ignat in the hijack shoved all in for what appeared to be 170,000 or so. Action folded rapidly back to Fares and he called.

Muhyedine Fares: {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}
Liviu Ignat:{K-Hearts}{J-Hearts}

The board ran out {Q-Clubs}{6-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{3-Spades} and Ignat hit the rail in 25th place (€34,400).

Kanit is Straight out of the Main Event

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Mustapha Kanit
Mustapha Kanit

Mustapha Kanit raised to 25,000 from the hijack after starting the hand with around 20 big blinds. Geilich called from the big blind and both players saw a flop of {6-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{5-Spades}.

Geilich check-called Kanit's bet of 16,000 and saw the {7-Hearts} on the turn, and Geilich decided to bet out 51,000. With just over 200,000 behind, Kanit shoved and Geilich snap-called.

Kanit: {a-Spades}{8-Diamonds}
Geilich: {8-Hearts}{9-Spades}

Kanit was drawing to a chop, but the {5-Clubs} on the river sealed his fate, and the winner of the One-Day €50k earlier on in the festival was eliminated in 26th place.

Frank Doubles Through McEathron

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Christopher Frank
Christopher Frank

Ryan McEathron opened from the hijack for 20,000. Pastor in the small blind before Frank shoved from the big blind for around 260,000.

McEathron made the call and Pastor folded.

McEathron: {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}
Frank: {a-Spades}{j-Clubs}

The Canadian player was ahead on a flop of {5-Clubs}{8-Spades}{9-Clubs} and on the turn {9-Clubs}, but there was an ace on the river as the {A-Hearts} meant Frank doubled up and McEathron was left with 16 big blinds.
