Samuel Fournier Eliminated in 19th Place (€55,000)
Level 28
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Action folded to Samuel Fournier in the small blind who limped in. Carl Shaw then raised to 300,000 and Fournier reraised to 800,000.
Shaw called and they saw a flop of 2♣J♥A♥. Fournier led out for 275,000 and Shaw quickly called.
The turn came the K♦ and Fournier moved all in for around 1,900,000. Shaw practically beat him into the pot and turned over A♣A♦ for top set. Fournier was caught bluffing with Q♠8♦ and needed to hit a ten on the river to stay alive with a straight.
The dealer instead turned over the 7♠ and Fournier's tournament came to a sudden end.
