Klein Doubles Through Mateos

Level 17 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Morten Klein
Morten Klein

Action folded around to Morten Klein in the small blind who moved all in for 275,000. Adrian Mateos called in the big blind.

Morten Klein: {a-Hearts}{5-Clubs}
Adrian Mateos: {8-Hearts}{8-Spades}

Klein was in rough shape and was not help when the flop came {6-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{2-Spades} followed by the turn of {8-Diamonds}. However the river saved him as it came the {7-Clubs} to give him the straight. Klein had stood up thinking he was eliminated only to realise he was still alive and thankfully sat back down.

Morten Klein Eliminated on the Bubble

Level 17 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Morten Klein
Morten Klein

Mikalai Vaskaboinikau raised to 40,000 under the gun. Morten Klein jammed 440,000 from early position. Vaskaboinikau thought for some time and counted out how much of his stack it would take to call before making the call.

Morten Klein: {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Mikalai Vaskaboinikau: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

The flop was terrible news for Klein but great news for every other player as it came {a-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}. The turn was the {4-Clubs} and the river came the {q-Diamonds} to burst the bubble after only a few hands of bubble play.

Level: 18

Blinds: 10,000/25,000

Ante: 25,000

Michael Soyza Eliminated in 8th Place (€120,300)

Level 18 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Michael Soyza ripped 180,000 from the button. Michael Addamo re-jammed from the small to fold out the big and the cards were turned over.

Soyza said "Chop is good" as he saw he was trailing with the {a-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} vs the {a-Spades}{10-Spades} of Addamo.

The board ran out tamely {8-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{4-Clubs} to put a wrap on proceedings for Soyza.
