An all in and call situation occurred on Table 18, with Tobias Tropschuh being at risk for 56,500 from the big blind against Kasper Hansen in early position.
Tobias Tropschuh: K♣K♦
Kasper Hansen: A♦K♥
The dealer fanned a board of 3♠8♥7♦6♠8♣, so Tropschuh secured a double up.
Ittai Gluska opened to 3,000 first-to-act and was called by Liviu-Alexandru Nedelea in middle position, Ilias Chatzimarkakis in the hijack, and Fahredin Mustafov in the cutoff. Richard Wells wasn't having it and announced a squeeze to 16,000 on the button.
Everyone else quickly folded and Wells added to his stack without resistance.
Johan Bindner opened 4,000 in early position and only Dino Volkholz came along from the cutoff.
Both players checked the Q♠10♠3♣ flop to see the J♦ turn. Bindner dropped two blue chips across the line for a bet of 10,000, and Volkholz mucked his hand.
Action folded around to the blinds, where Emmanouil Asgoudakis raised to 4,000 from the small blind. Gisle Olsen shoved for 28,000 from the big blind and Asgoudakis called to put Gisle at risk.
Gisle Olsen: 3♣4♣
Emmanouil Asgoudakis: A♥J♦
The 5♠7♥2♠ flop gave Olsen additional outs to a straight, but the K♠ turn and 9♠ river bricked out for Olsen — eliminating him from the tournament.
Marco Levato opened in early position and Kalevi Leinonen defended his big blind.
On the 4♥4♣3♠ flop Leinonen check-called a bet of 3,000 from Levato,
The 2♥ turn was checked through by both players, as was the Q♥ river. Levato turned over A♣10♣ for ace-high, which was sufficient to scoop the pot versus Leinonen's A♦7♣.
Mengshi Tian opened to 4,500 from under the gun. He was called by Ferry Ikink to his left and by Markus Sturz in middle position. Seated on the next seat, Jules Dickerson squeezed to 20,000 and made Tian fold. Ikink folded too, but Sturz made the call.
A flop of K♠Q♠8♥ landed on the felt, and Sturz didn't wait to go all in for 35,000. Dickerson snap-called.
Markus Sturz: 7♠6♠
Jules Dickerson: A♣K♣
Dickerson called with top pair, while Sturz had a flush draw. He didn't hit the flush, but a runner-runner straight to double up thanks to the turn 10♣ and the river 9♣. "I didn't see the straight," said Dickerson.
Down to 70,000, Dickerson was seen leaving the main room a few minutes later as he was eliminated.
