The flop came {9-Spades}{3-Clubs}{2-Hearts} and Rehaime bet 500,000. Madsen raised to 1,900,000 leaving himself 500,000 behind. Rehaime called. Rehaime said he had meant to put Madsen all in and blind bet 500,000.

The turn was the {9-Diamonds} and Madsen looked at the other tables before making the call.

Jakob Madsen: {6-Spades}{3-Diamonds}
Ahmad Rehaime: {q-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}

Madsen was drawing dead and was eliminated from the tournament. The river was a non-factor as it came the {6-Clubs} which sent Madsen home with €21,100.

Luther Spikes River to Double Through Siljander

Level 33 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Nikita Luther
Nikita Luther

Nikita Luther opened from middle position, Mathias Siljander three-bet in the cutoff, and Luther four-bet jammed for her 7,750,000 chips. Siljander quickly called.

Nikita Luther: {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}
Mathias Siljander: {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

Luther was behind and needed to improve, although the {j-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{3-Clubs} flop was one of the best she could ask for which still kept her behind. The {k-Diamonds} turn changed nothing, but the {2-Clubs} spiked the river as Luther put her hands on her face in disbelief and collected the large pot to put her near the top of the counts.

Rafael Navas Eliminated in 20th Place (€24,270)

Level 33 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Rafael Navas
Rafael Navas

Andrew Wilson raised to 500,000 from the hijack and Rafael Navas called in the big blind.

The flop came {10-Spades}{6-Spades}{5-Diamonds} and Navas check-raised Wilson's 425,000 bet to 1,500,000.

The {5-Clubs} was the turn and Navas checked to Wilson who bet 650,000. Again Navas raised, this time to 1,800,000. Wilson pondered for a while before calling.

The river was the {2-Diamonds} and Navas moved all in for 4,100,000. Wilson went into the tank while he thought through the situation. Eventually he made the call.

Navas stood up as he turned over {k-Spades}{8-Clubs} for king high as he knew he was eliminated from the tournament while Wilson had made a huge hero call as he turned over {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds} for ace high to eliminate Navas and send him into the chip lead.

Level 34 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Emil Bise
Emil Bise

Jack Sinclair opened to 225,000 from middle position and Emil Bise jammed for approximately 1,700,000 in the big blind. After getting a rough count, Sinclair flicked in a couple of chips for a call.

Emil Bise: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Jack Sinclair: {k-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

Bise was ahead, but a queen in the window on the {q-Hearts}{10-Spades}{5-Hearts} flop left him needing help. The {2-Spades} turn meant he needed an ace or jack to stay alive, but the {4-Clubs} completed the board to eliminate him in 18th place.

Nikita Luther
Nikita Luther

Ivan Zhechev opened to 5,300,000 from early position, leaving just 50,000 behind. Renat Bohdanov called in the hijack, and Nikita Luther called all in for her 4,750,000 chips in the big blind.

The dealer spread the {8-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} flop and Zhechev check-called for his remaining 50,000.

Nikita Luther: {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}
Ivan Zhechev: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}
Renat Bohdanov: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}

Bohdanov had the best hand with his cowboys, and the board ran out to leave him with the best hand, eliminating Luther in 16th place for €27,930 since she had fewer chips, and eliminating Zhechev in 15th place for €32,120.

Rachid El Yaacoubi raised from under the gun to 800,000 before Rick Van Bruggen three-bet all in from early position to 10,425,000. Action folded back around to El Yaacoubi who made the call slightly covering Van Bruggen.

Rick Van Bruggen: {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}
Rachid El Yaacoubi: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}
