Doubles for Petakovic and Laugt

Level 30 : 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Quentin Laugt
Quentin Laugt

Tomas Patka opened to 240,000 from early position and Milos Petakovic three-bet jammed a stack of around 400,000 from the small blind. Patka called with a bigger stack.

Milos Petakovic: 55
Tomas Patka: 109

Petakovic was able to double as the board ran out 2A3K4 to improve him to a wheel.

At the other table, Maher Achour opened to 250,000 from under the gun and Daisuke Ogita three-bet to 700,000 as the player next to act. Quentin Laugt cold-called and Achour also called.

Achour checked on the flop of 3Q9 and Ogita continued for 375,000. Laugt raised to 1,000,000 and Achour folded, while Ogita three-bet all in with his opponent covered. Laugt quickly called.

Quentin Laugt: AA
Daisuke Ogita: KK

It was a cooler as Ogita's kings were in rough shape against Laugt's aces and the 7 turn gave Laugt a lock on things with the nut flush before the meaningless Q river to earn him a double through the chip leader.

Level 30 : 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Alessio Di Cesare
Alessio Di Cesare

All the chips went in the middle preflop between Maher Achour and Alessio Di Cesare, who was the player at risk for his stack of 3,385,000.

Alessio Di Cesare: KK
Maher Achour: AA

It was the ultimate cooler for Di Cesare to run into the only hand better than his. The board ran out 8536A and the rockets of Achour held up to send Di Cesare to the payout desk in 16th place.

Level 31 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Ignacio Puebla
Ignacio Puebla

The action folded around to Stefan Dimitrov on the button who moved all in, covering both his opponents in the blinds. Ignacio Puebla made the call for his last roughly 1,800,000 in the small blind and the big blind quickly folded.

Ignacio Puebla: KQ
Stefan Dimitrov: K10

Puebla was well ahead preflop and when the board ran out 8823, looked good for a double up. However, when the river fell the 10, it was the pair of tens that scored the pot to send Puebla out in 14th place.

Biao Ding Eliminated in 13th Place (€18,210)

Level 31 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Biao Ding
Biao Ding

Biao Ding open-jammed from under the gun with just under 1,600,000 and Rubens Sellam called in the big blind with a slightly smaller stack.

Rubens Sellam: KK
Biao Ding: A10

The board ran out 983J8 and Sellam screamed "yes, papa!" as his kings held up for a double, while Ding was left with less than a big blind and forced all in the next hand.

Tomas Patka opened to 340,000 from the hijack and Anatoly Chen three-bet to 1,125,000 from the cutoff. Patka tanked for over a minute and called.

Patka checked on the flop of 6K4 and Chen quickly moved all in to get Patka to fold just as quickly.

Biao Ding: 97
Anatoly Chen: AK

Ding was drawing very thin but the 9 on the turn gave him some hope before the 5 river confirmed his elimination in 13th place.

Adel Rahou opened to 375,000 from middle position and Maksym Mamon three-bet on the button to leave himself just a few chips behind. Rahou went in the tank for several minutes and the clock was eventually called before he four-bet jammed to put Mamon all in. Mamon called.

Maksym Mamon: KQ
Adel Rahou: A8

Mamon was able to double up as the board ran out 1092Q5 to pair his queen and keep him in contention.
