Emil Bise Eliminated in 18th Place (€24,270)

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.
