David Salituro

Level 17 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Alexios Zervos, David Kaufmann, and Matthias Lipp, who all found themselves in the top five on the chip leaderboard at the start of the day, are sharing a table here on Day 3, but only Zervos played a role in the latest hand.

With around 100,000 in the pot on a flop of 9♠J♥J♣, Zervos bet 23,000 from the button and Antoine Camors called in the hijack. Both players then checked the 6♥ turn.

The river was the 4♣ and Zervos bet 200,000, enough to put Camors all in. Camors eventually folded and Zervos added more to his stack.

EPT champion Robin Ylitalo is also seated at this stacked table.

David Tous Rosich made it 12,000 to go from an early position with the K♠10♥, picking up a single caller by Liangce Ni in the small blind with the K♦Q♠. The 10♠8♠7♦ flop was checked and the 5♠ turn gave both players a flush draw.

Ni bluff-shoved the river for 115,000 and Tous Rosich called with the superior stack to score the knockout.
