, but called when Lightbourne made a 19,000 bet.
The 
was checked by both players, with the

Former EPT Prague High Roller Champ Sent to the Rail
Level 18
: 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
Two years ago, Ivan Soshnikov topped a 176-entry field and defeated Olivier Busquet in heads-up to win the Season 10 European Poker Tour Prague €10,000 High Roller for €382,050. Soshnikov was back in Prague looking for another title, but his hopes of capturing one in the Main Event just came to an end.
Soshnikov shoved his last 63,000 from the cutoff and Tomas Pleticha looked him up from the button.
Soshnikov: 
Pleticha: 
It was another flip, and Soshnikov just needed to hold. He couldn't though as the flop paired Pleticha. The 
turn put up a chop option, but it didn't come through as the 
blanked on the river. Soshnikov was officially eliminated in 89th place.

Mateos' Bluff Fails on Tjauw Foe
Level 18
: 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
Clyde Tjauw Foe opened the button and EPT Grand Final champion Adrian Mateos made the call from the big blind. The flop came 
and Mateos checked. Tjauw Foe fired 14,000 into the middle and Mateos check raised to 46,000. Tjauw Foe called in position.
Both players checked the 
on the turn and the 
completed the board. Mateos bet 125,000 and Tjauw Foe shoved all in. Mateos instantly folded.
"I had the best hand anyway I think" Tjauw Foe said while he gathered the chips. He showed and started stacking. Ori Miller asked "Why did you shove?" and asked the table the same question when Tjauw Foe didn't reply. Miller will probably never know because no one joined in the discussion.
