Stokkan Eliminated

Level 6 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

We were too late to catch any of the action, but just in time to write down the showdown. Preben Stokkan had {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts} in front of him while Thomas Boivin had {K-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} showing. The board was {2-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{J-Diamonds} but, as said, we're unsure of how the two got the chips in. What we are certain of is that Stokkan has been eliminated while Boivin now has well over two times the starting stack.

Laszlo Bujtas opened for 6,000 under the gun and Charlie Carrel three-bet to 17,500 from the next position over. The action folded around to Bujitas who pushed for what looked like 60,000 or so. Carrel called right away.

Laszlo Bujtas: {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Charlie Carrel: {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}

The board came out {A-Hearts}{A-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{6-Spades} and Bujitas exited the tournament area.
