In what was a game-changing pot on the very first hand of Day 5, Diego De Martino open-raised to 110,000 from the cutoff, Enrico Coppola called on the button, and Andreas Goeller called in the big blind.
The flop came 7♣A♣A♠ and Goeller led out for 150,000, De Martino called, and Coppola raised it up to 550,000. Goeller then reraised to 1,100,000, De Martino folded and Coppola called in what was now a very valuable pot.
On the 2♦ turn, Goeller ripped in his stack for around 1,800,000 and Coppola used a couple of time bank cards before flicking in a chip to make the call.
Goeller had 10♦7♥ for two pair, sevens and aces. Coppola had A♦5♠ for trip aces, leaving Goeller drawing dead as the river came the 3♠.
Coppola had his opponent covered and raked in a pot that brought his stack up to 6,400,000, putting him well out in first place. Goeller was eliminated from the tournament in 18th place for €34,600.
