Vitezslav Cech Eliminated in 7th Place (€159,150)
Traian Stanciu made it 400,000 to go in the cutoff. Dimitrios Gkatzas pushed in a three-bet to 850,000 on the button, and Paawan Bansal folded 6♥2♥ in the small blind after having invested two-thirds of his stack.
Vitezslav Cech spent three time banks in the big blind before he called all-in for 675,000. With the action back on Stanciu, he four-bet jammed, also putting Gkatzas all-in for 2,700,000.
Gkatzas quickly rechecked his cards before he immediately called off.
Vitezslav Cech: J♠J♥
Dimitrios Gkatzas: A♥A♦
Traian Stanciu: Q♠Q♦
"Why did I do this?" Cech lamented as the cards were revealed.
The 6♦7♦3♣ flop and 9♠ turn left Cech and Stanciu with two outs each. The 7♠ river paired the board instead, sending out Cech while Gkatzas' aces scooped the massive pot.
