Level 23 : 20,000/40,000, 0 ante

Alexander Petersen raised to 80,000 and Anson Tsang three-bet to 240,000. Petersen raised the pot to 720,000 and Tsang called with another 440,000 behind. The flop came {7-Spades}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds} and Tsang checked, Petersen immediately went all in.

Tsang was sent into the think tank and talked through, calculated possible hands. He asked his opponent for one more minute and eventually called with the word "backdoor backdoor," having previously mentioned he had no spades in his hand.

Anson Tsang: {Q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}
Alexander Petersen: {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{4-Diamonds}

The {A-Spades} on the turn immediately left Tsang drawing dead and that made the {10-Spades} on the river a formality. Tsang has been eliminated in 2nd place for €151,700 and Petersen will take home the tropy and first-place payout of €213,400. A recap of today's action is to follow.
