Nicolas Chouity Eliminated in 6th Place (€278,950)
Level 32
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Jose Criado opened to 400,000 in the hijack. Nicolas Chouity was in the small blind and pushed in his short stack of 1,575,000. Criado asked for a count before he called.
Nicolas Chouity: A♥10♥
Jose Criado: K♥J♥
The 6♦5♠7♣ did nothing for either player, but the K♣ turn gave Criado a pair to leapfrog Chouity's ace-high.
The 4♣ river could not save the last remaining EPT champion, and he finished in sixth place as the day's first elimination.
