Back-to-Back Eliminations on Table 6
Level 15
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Tobias Fischer had pushed in his final blinds preflop and was looked up by big stack Xavier Cortazar.
Tobias Fischer: A♠J♦
Xavier Cortazar: A♥2♥
Fischer was a favorite to double up, but Cortazar locked up the pot on the 10♦10♥7♥K♥ turn by making a flush. The river came the inconsequential 6♥, and Fischer silently departed from the table.
One hand later, Nikolaos Mouroutis had pushed in his final 65,000 in the cutoff and was up against Ilya Nikiforov in the hijack.
Nikolaos Mouroutis: J♦10♦
Ilya Nikiforov: Q♠Q♣
Again, the all-in player had no outs remaining after the turn, as the 6♥9♣3♥2♥Q♦ board spelled the end of Mouroutis' Main Event.
