Level 17 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Christoph Vogelsang
Christoph Vogelsang

Action folded to German high-roller Christoph Vogelsang on the button and he pushed all in for 530,000.

Big blind Parker Talbot asked for a count. While the dealer was counting Vogelsang's stack, Talbot said: "I'm probably calling Christoph."

As soon as it was clear it was 530,000, Parker called.

Christoph Vogelsang: {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}
Parker Talbot: {K-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

The flop came {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{2-Hearts}, giving Talbot a gutshot. The {J-Spades} hit the turn and Vogelsang was drawing dead. The {7-Clubs} on the river was there just for good measures and Vogelsang made his exit.

Level 17 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Martin Jacobson
Martin Jacobson

Alexandros Kolonias open-shoved from late position and the action folded to Martin Jacobson in the big blind, who asked for a count. The all in was for 545,000 and Jacobson called with less than two big blinds more.

Kolonias: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades}
Jacobson: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}

The board ran out {10-Spades}{9-Spades}{7-Spades}{9-Clubs}{3-Spades} and Kolonias doubled, leaving Jacobson on just 65,000.

The ante went in and he was then in the small blind, when Kully Sidhu raised to 90,000 the very next hand. Jacobson called all in and Alex Komaromi called in the big blind. On the {9-Spades}{8-Hearts}{3-Hearts} flop, both remaining action players checked.

After the {7-Diamonds} turn, Komaromi bet 80,000 and Sidhu called before Komaromi then bet the {7-Hearts} river for 145,000. Sidhu raised to 345,000 and that forced a fold from Komaromi.

Jacobson: {J-Clubs}{6-Clubs}
Sidhu: {A-Diamonds}{7-Spades}

The trips sevens won the pot for Sidhu and sent Jacobson to the rail in 15th place.

Murad Akhundov Eliminated in 16th Place (€56,600)

Level 17 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Murad Akhundov
Murad Akhundov

Murad Akhundov lost ace-nine suited against pocket sevens and was left with two big blinds. The next hand he was seated in the big blind.

Parker Talbot asked how much Murad Akhundov had behind and made it 80,000 from middle position. Action folded to Akhundov and he called instantly, showing the {A-Diamonds} first. It later turned out he had {A-Diamonds}{7-Spades}. Parker Talbot showed {K-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}.

The flop came {J-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{10-Spades}, just about ending it for Akhundov. The {Q-Clubs} on the turn was effectively a blank as the king was no good for Akhundov. The river {9-Spades} was just a formality and Akhundov made his way to the rail.

The remaining 15 players are guaranteed €62,660 from here on out.

In a battle of the blinds, Alex Komaromi in the small blind and Pasquale Grimaldi in the big blind clashed and the latter had found an ace only to find himself up against two of them.

Grimaldi: {A-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}
Komaromi: {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds}

Juha Helppi

Parker Talbot open-shoved and Juha Helppi called all in for around 300,000 from two seats over in the hijack. Vojtech Ruzicka in the small blind asked the dealer "what is this?" and then called all in with more chips than Helppi.

Helppi: {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}
Ruzicka: {8-Spades}{8-Hearts}
Talbot: {A-Diamonds}{9-Spades}

"Just a nine please," Talbot announced and his wish was granted with the {Q-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} flop. The {6-Spades} turn and the {7-Spades} river changed nothing anymore and Talbot knocked out Helppi in 19th and Ruzicka in 18th place.
