Eric Rabl Eliminated in 14th Place (€58,350)

Level 26 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Eric Rabl
Eric Rabl

Ehsan Amiri has been dominating the table with a series of raises and three-bets. In one of the latest hands, Amiri opened from the cutoff and a fed-up Eric Rabl on the button three-bet the chip leader, who then called.

Amiri checked on the flop of {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{10-Spades} and Rabl bet 180,000. Amiri called. Amiri checked again on the {k-Clubs} turn and Rabl checked back.

The river brought the {a-Spades} and Amiri checked for a third time. Rabl took a moment before pushing out his stack of 845,000 for an all-in bet. Amiri went into the tank and stared down his opponent behind a pair of blue-tinted sunglasses. After using two time banks, Amiri called.

Rabl tabled a stone bluff with {9-Hearts}{6-Clubs} for nine-high and Amiri let out a gasp that was equal parts in relief and in shock before he tabled {a-Clubs}{5-Spades} for trips, more than enough to win the pot. Rabl hit the rail in 14th place as those at the table tried to wrap their heads around the meltdown they had witnessed.

"Nine-six off?!" F***!" Amiri exclaimed after extending his already massive chip lead.

"Wow," contributed Ramon Colillas.

Ramon Colillas

After Rui Bouquet opened to 100,000 in early position, Ramon Colillas moved all in for 830,000 on the button and Bouquet called.

Ramon Colillas: {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Rui Bouquet: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}

The {10-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{5-Spades} flop was safe for the PokerStars Ambassador, but the {k-Clubs} on the turn and then the {a-Diamonds} on the river sealed his fate in 13th place.

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Antoine Labat
Antoine Labat

After raising in early position, Daewoong Song called the all-in bet of Antoine Labat for 320,000 to put the Frenchman at risk.

Antoine Labat: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}
Daewoong Song: {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}

The {q-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} flop brought Song some help, pairing his queen, and the turn brought even more with the {q-Diamonds}.

The {8-Spades} on the river filled Song up and brought the field down to 11 players.

Amiri Rivers Flush to Continue Steamroll

Level 26 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Rui Bouquet opened to 100,000 from the cutoff and Ehsan Amiri flat-called out of the small blind.

Amiri checked on the flop of {2-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} and Bouquet checked back. Amiri then led out with a bet of 150,000 on the {j-Spades} turn and his opponent called.

The river brought the {5-Diamonds} and Amiri fired a bet of 400,000. Bouquet shuffled some chips and called, only to muck when Amiri showed {q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for a rivered flush.

The Ehsan Amiri show continues, as he has eliminated another player and extended his already commanding lead.

Amiri raised to 125,000 under the gun and was called by Rui Bouquet in the small blind and Lander Lijo in the big blind.

The flop came {k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{7-Spades} and after his opponents in the blinds checked, Amiri continued for 250,000.

Bouquet then moved all in for 1,345,000. Lijo folded, but Amiri went into the tank briefly before calling for the opportunity to send another player to the rail.

Rui Bouquet: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Ehsan Amiri: {k-Spades}{9-Spades}

Amiri's pair led Bouquet's flush draw, and after the {8-Diamonds} turn and {2-Clubs} river, the Australian had secured another knockout as his stack hit the nine million chip mark.
