Stoica Doubles in Blinds; Bonus Busted by Binder
Thomas Eychenne open-shoved from the small blind, and Roman Stoica put himself at risk by calling off his stack of 300,000 in the big blind.
Roman Stoica: A♦9♠
Thomas Eychenne: 4♠4♣
Eychenne's pair remained ahead on the 3♣J♣Q♥ flop and 6♠ turn, but the river brought relief for Stoica as the A♥ granted him a double-up.
Meanwhile, Markus Bonus' Main Event came to an end as he was left without chips at the feature table.
After an open-raise to 50,000 and three-bet to 150,000, Bonus burned a few time banks before deciding to shove his last 195,000 in the middle holding A♣Q♦ in the small blind. Bernhard Binder, in the big blind, then took a minute before five-betting to 395,000 holding the preflop nuts, A♥A♦.
The other two players folded, their hands were tabled, and Bonus saw he was in bad shape. The board ran out 8♥3♠9♥2♦J♠, bringing no miracle for Bonus, and he took his leave while Binder took his chips.
