Mikschik Busts Eventually as Trofimov and Jorstad Chip Up

Level 5 : 200/500, 500 ante

In a battle big blind versus under the gun, table big stack [Removed:510] bet the {5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{j-Spades}{a-Clubs} river for 11,200. Peter Mikschik had 11,600 behind and called to muck when Trofimov tabled the {j-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} for two pair.

Andrey Andreev and Michael Rudolph then limped and Espen Jorstad raised to 2,100 on the button. Mikschik was forced all-in from the big blind and Andreev as well as Rudolph called. The {q-Hearts}{j-Spades}{4-Clubs} flop was checked to Jorstad, who bet 2,400 and earned two calls. On the {7-Hearts} turn, they checked to Jorstad again who bet 7,400 and isolated.

Peter Mikschik: {k-Spades}{6-Spades}
Espen Jorstad: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}

Mikschik was on his way out but spiked the {k-Hearts} on the river.

Trofimov then min-raised the button and Mikschik called with very few chips behind, as did Jules Hamidou in the big blind. The {10-Hearts}{9-Spades}{7-Diamonds} flop was check-called or 500 by Hamidou as the {10-Diamonds} turn was checked. Hamidou wanted to bet 2,000 on the {a-Clubs} river but made it 6,000 to which Trofimov called with a single chip.

Hamidou mucked to forfeit the pot and then admitted his mishap while Trofimov won the pot without showdown.

Last but not least, Mikschik got it in with a king and Lorenzo Lavis turned an unbeatable flush with the {7-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} to knock out the German.
