Huerta Busts Ogoltsov

Richard Hayes

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Gonzalo Huerta opened to 30,000 in early position before Nikolai Ogoltsov three-bet to 100,000 in the next seat.

Huerta took some time before moving all in for 430,000 more, covering Ogoltsov. Ogoltsov looked pained, but with half his stack already in the pot, had little choice but to call it off.

Nikolai Ogoltsov: K♣Q♥
Gonzalo Huerta: A♦Q♠

Ogoltsov was in trouble, and the 7♠J♦2♥9♦9♠ runout provided no help, allowing Huerta to scoop the pot with ace-high.

Radevic's Sixes Outflops Queens

Ben Weiss

Level 20 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Nikola Radevic opened to 30,000 from the small blind, before Tobias Leknes raised to 75,000. Radevic then three-bet shoved and got a call, with Leknes the shorter stack.

Tobias Leknes: Q♠Q♥
Nikola Radevic: 6♦6♠

The flop of K♣10♥6♥ turned the hand on its head, with Radevic flopping a set.

The 5♣ on the turn offered no salvation to Leknes.

A 10♣ on the river confirmed the Norwegian's exit in 231st place, taking home €3,420.

Lucky River Sees Shahar Bust Lunde in Huge Pot

Richard Hayes

Level 20 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Picking up the action on the river on a board of 10♥5♦A♣3♣J♠ with around 400,000 already in the middle, Sondre Lunde checked to Ran Shahar.

Shahar moved all in for about 300,000 and was quickly called by Lunde, with Shahar covering Lunde.

Sondre Lunde: 10♠10♦
Ran Shahar: K♦Q♣

Shahar had hit a straight on the river to overtake Lunde's set of tens, and he scooped a monster 1,200,000 pot.

Klotz Busts Alibas to Breach Million-Chip Mark

Dan O'Hair

Level 20 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Salim Alibas was already all in and at risk preflop for his remaining stack from the big blind against Martin Klotz, who had Alibas covered from the hijack.

Salim Alibas: Q♦Q♣
Martin Klotz: A♣K♦

It was a classic race, but the A♦10♦4♠7♠8♠ runout paired Klotz's ace to eliminate Alibas from the tournament.

Graells Eliminated by Chatzipanagiotis

Maxime Taldir

Level 20 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Alexander Norden opened to 24,000, then Ricardo Graells to his left three-bet all in for 32,000. Both players in the blinds called, and Norden called too.

The dealer fanned a flop of 3♦3♥10♠, and Gavril Peter in the small blind checked. But Georgios Chatzipanagiotis in the big blind decided to take the lead with a bet of 45,000. Norden folded, as well as Peter.

Ricardo Graells: A♣9♠
Georgios Chatzipanagiotis: K♥10♦

"I only have three outs" said Graells when he showed his cards. But he didn't find the ace he needed on the turn 5♣ or the river J♥, so he was eliminated.

Wheeler Rolls Out

Frank Visser

Level 20 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

In a three-way pot to a flop of K♦5♣2♠, Jason Wheeler checked from the big blind before Robin Sommer bet out 70,000 from early position. Ender Lacin made the call from the cutoff, after which Wheeler decided to risk it all by putting his stack of 425,000 in the middle.

Sommer spent some time in the tank before ultimately folding, but Lacin snap-called to put Wheeler's tournament life at risk.

Jason Wheeler: K♥Q♣
Ender Lacin: 5♠5♦

Wheeler was left to runner-runner outs against the set of Lacin, and when the 3♠ turn appeared, his Eureka Main Event was over. The 9♦ river completed the board as a formality and Wheeler went on his way to the payout desk.

Aces Against Kings and a Million-Chip Pot for Abehassera

Maxime Taldir

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Stefan Galic and Stephane Abehassera in early positions raised each other and ended up moving all in preflop, creating a massive 1,100,000 chip-pot.

Stefan Galic: K♣K♥
Stephane Abehassera: A♥A♦

The very low board of 3♥2♥9♣7♣3♣ didn't change anything in this setup. As he had a slightly smaller stack, Galic was eliminated while Abehassera is now a millionaire.
