Greenwood Gone

Level 14 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
SamGreenwood
SamGreenwood

The flop was down {7-Clubs}{6-Spades}{k-Spades}, and Sam Greenwood was playing from the big blind. His opponent was Matthias Eibinger who was under the gun, and they had a battle on the flop that resulted in Greenwood's all in being called.

Matthias Eibinger: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}
Sam Greenwood: {9-Spades}{7-Spades}

Eibinger was ahead with his overpair to the board, and it stayed that way after the turn {8-Hearts}, and river {q-Clubs} were no help to Greenwood, whose elimination signaled the redraw for the final two tables.

Super High Roller Champ Badziakouski Departs

Level 13 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Mikita_Badziakouski
Mikita_Badziakouski

Mikita Badziakouski moved all in from the button and Seth Davies reshoved in the small blind before the big blind folded.

Mikita Badziakouski: {q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}
Seth Davies: {a-Spades}{9-Spades}

Board: {a-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{2-Hearts}

Badziakouski was live but needed help from the board. Davies hit top pair on the flop to take full control, and the hand was sealed on the turn when he hit two pair.

Badziakouski, who took down the €100,000 Super High Roller this week for € 1,650,300, exited and was unable to find another High Roller cash today.

Troyanovskiy Eliminates Foxen

Level 13 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Alex Foxen
Alex Foxen

Chan Wai Leong raised from under the gun before Alex Foxen moved all in for around 130,000 in the next seat. When the action folded to Vladimir Troyanovskiy in the cutoff the reshoved and the rest of the table folded including Leong.

Alex Foxen: {q-Hearts}{j-Clubs}
Vladimir Troyanovskiy: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

Board: {k-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{8-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{5-Hearts}

Foxen's hand was crushed but he did pick up outs on the flop with the up and down straight draw. But he missed on the turn and river to be the next player to exit, as Troyanovskiy moved up to 530,000.

Reeves Busts to Smith

Level 13 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Lucas Reeves has bust in the very first hand after the break after he ran into Dan Smith's ace-queen.

Smith raised from the cutoff and Reeves jammed from the small blind which got called.

Lucas Reeves: {a-Clubs}{8-Hearts}
Dan Smith: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

Board: {6-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{3-Diamonds}

Reeves' hand was dominated, and he got no help from the board. Smith collected the pot as Reeves departed and moved up to 620,000.

Over on table three, Joao Vieira has seen his tournament come to an end after he also was unable to win all in during a hand straight after the break.
