Van Luijk Falls to Delfoco

Level 25 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Derk van Luijk
Derk van Luijk

Derk van Luijk raised to 200,000 on the button before Francesco Delfoco moved all in from the big blind. Van Luijk called for his last 365,000.

Derk van Luijk: KJ
Francesco Delfoco: KQ

Both players finished with top pair on the 79610K board, but Delfoco's queen-kicker played to earn him the pot and send Van Luijk to the rail.

Mavritsakis Makes Move at the Wrong Time; Erlandsson Continues Heater

Level 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Panagiotis Mavritsakis
Panagiotis Mavritsakis

The action kicked off with a raise to 60,000 by Panagiotis Mavritsakis with the 88 in the cutoff and chip leader Hans Erlandsson called in the big blind with the AJ to hit top pair on the AQ10 flop.

Erlandsson checked and subsequently called a bet worth 50,000 to then check the Q turn, Mavritsakis checked it back.

The K river brought a bet worth 100,000 by Erlandsson with Broadway and the nut flush blocker. Mavritsakis jammed for 580,000 and Erlandsson snapped him off to score the third elimination of this level on the live stream table.

Vlastos Flops the Nuts, Still Loses Big to Afriat

Level 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Eric Afriat
Eric Afriat

Ami Barer raised to 60,000 in early position and was called by Eric Afriat on the button and big blind Terry Vlastos.

The flop came 9Q10 and action checked to Afriat who bet 75,000. Only Vlastos called and both players checked the A turn.

The river was the K and Vlastos led out for 200,000. Afriat then raised to 675,000 and Vlastos snap-called.

Afriat turned over Q6 for a rivered flush and Vlastos buried his head in his hand as he showed J8, having flopped the nut straight that improved to a lesser flush on the river.

"Easy poker," David Tous told Afriat after the hand.

Jattin Gets Mavritsakis to Fold the Superior Hand

Level 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Farid Jattin
Farid Jattin

Tom Middleton kickstarted the action from under the gun with a wager of 60,000, holding the K8. Panagiotis Mavritsakis called in the hijack with the AJ and so did Farid Jattin in the cutoff with 66.

The J54 flop was all Mavritsakis, who bet 90,000 when checked to. Jattin played one time bank and raised to 240,000 for Middleton to get out of the way. Mavritsakis, hiding some of his face behind a scarf, stared at his table neighbour and reluctantly called.

Jattin picked up equity with the 3 turn and Mavritsakis checked to him. The Colombian checked it back to the 9 river and Mavritsakis now opted for a bet worth 385,000 for nearly half of his stack.

Jattin took his time before moving all in with the covering stack and sent his table neighbor into a world of pain. Mavritsakis used his last two time bank extensions and studied the body language of Jattin before sigh-folding.

Former EPT Champion Wigg Eliminated by Almeida

Level 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Anton Wigg
Anton Wigg

Panagiotis Mavritsakis raised to 65,000 in the hijack with the 66. Anton Wigg then jammed on the button for 530,000 and Gonzalo Almeida pushed all in over the top. Hans Erlandsson was in the big blind and glanced at all of the stacks in front of him while looking down on 1010.

Erlandsson went through the emotions again, used one time bank and opted to fold this time. Mavritsakis also let go and the other two players showed their pocket pairs.

Anton Wigg: 77
Gonzalo Almeida: JJ

After the KJ2 flop, Wigg sighed, "that's gonna be tough," and already gathered his belongings. Almeida improved to a full house on the 9K runout and Wigg had to settle for 30th place and €30,250, missing out on a shot at a second EPT Main Event title.

Owen Dodd
Owen Dodd

Owen Dodd raised to 60,000 under the gun before Peter Jorgne three-bet to 180,000 in the hijack. Dodd called and they went heads-up to a flop of JJ7.

Jorgne then continued for 225,000 and Dodd called. Both players checked the 3 turn.

The river was the 10 and Dodd led out for 150,000. Jorgne called, then mucked when Dodd showed JJ for flopped quads.

Red-Hot Erlandsson Strikes Again and Knocks Out Minasi

Level 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Alessandro Minasi
Alessandro Minasi

In a limped pot to the J53 flop, Hans Erlandsson checked with the K5. Alessandro Minasi bet 75,000 with the J10 only for Erlandsson to check-raise to 225,000.

Minasi wasted little time to move all-in for 980,000 and Erlandsson went through the motions before making the call!

It was a coin flip and Minasi stayed ahead on the 6 turn but Erlandsson nailed the K river to earn the second knockout in a row, skyrocketing to the top spot.

Dodd Fires the River on Hansen

Level 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Owen Dodd
Owen Dodd

Sindre Hansen raised to 60,000 under the gun, Owen Dodd three-bet to 200,000 in the small blind, and Hansen called.

The flop came 4104 and Dodd led out for 150,000. Hansen called and they both checked the 8 turn.

The river was the 6 and Dodd bet 375,000. Hansen took off his sunglasses and tucked them into the collar of his shirt as he used three time banks before mucking.

"That good?" Hansen asked Dodd who took a peek back at his cards before returning them face down.

Tell the Payout Desk that Omar's Comin'

Level 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Omar Lakhdari
Omar Lakhdari

Barny Boatman raised to 60,000 with the 75 and Omar Lakhdari three-bet to 215,000 in the next seat with the AK. Gonzalo Almeida tossed the 88 in the small blind and Hans Erlandsson then four-bet out of the big blind to 540,000 with just one ace showing.

Boatman folded and Lakhdari then instantly jammed for 1,660,000 - 55 big blinds - to get snapped off my Erlandsson with the AA!

There was a minor hope on the J66 flop with back door sixes or diamonds but the 9 turn and 10 river changed nothing. Erlandsson earned the massive pot and Lakhdari, who had started this streamed table with the most chips, bowed out in 32nd place on a pay jump.

Main Event Down to Final Four Tables

Level 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Zhongxian Li
Zhongxian Li

Eric Afriat opened to 65,000 first to act and was called by Farid Jattin on his direct left. Zhongxian Li also defended his big blind.

Li led out for 125,000 on the 832 flop and only Jattin called. Li then check-called for 50,000 on the 7 turn.

With 275,000 behind, Li checked the A river and Jattin put in enough T-25,000 chips to put Li all-in.

Li wasn't thrilled with the spot but called after counting out his stack.

Jattin tabled 22 for a set of deuces, which bested Li's rivered two pair as he flashed his A8 before heading to the exit.
