Zdenek Zizka Eliminated in 18th Place (€39,950)
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Thierry Gogniat had raised from the cutoff when Zdenek Zizka committed his stack of 505,000 from the small blind. Gogniat quickly called to put the backgammon Grandmaster at risk.
Zdenek Zizka: A♦10♥ 
Thierry Gogniat: A♠K♠
Zizka did not improve on the 4♣7♠9♣3♥ flop and turn, and Gogniat secured the knockout in style by making top pair on the K♦ river.
