Matthew McEwan Eliminated in 24th Place (€40,050)

Level 26 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Matthew McEwan
Matthew McEwan

Matthew McEwan raised to 100,000 from the hijack before Thomas Eychenne three-bet to 225,000 from the button. When it got back to McEwan, he four-bet jammed for 950,000, and Eychenne snap-called to put him at risk.

Matthew McEwan: AK All in
Thomas Eychenne: AA

McEwan was on the wrong end of a cooler and needed a lot of help from the dealer, or he would be out of the Main Event.

The dealer put down a flop of JJ5, keeping Eychenne's aces in the lead. McEwan couldn't pick up any backdoor draws on the 2 turn, which left him drawing dead. A Q river completed the board and McEwan headed to the rail in 24th place.
