Joris Ruijs Eliminated in 9th Place (€106,150)
Sami Bechahed raised to 230,000 in the cutoff and Jorge Abreu called on the button. Joris Ruijs also came along from the small blind, while Thierry Gogniat, who had half his stack already in the middle from the big blind, elected to get out of the way.
Action checked to Abreu on the 9♠5♣2♠ flop and he bet 250,000. Ruijs called, and Bechahed then raised to 725,000. Abreu called, but Ruijs then moved all in for 2,520,000.
Bechahed folded J♠J♣, while Abreu called to create a massive pot with nearly 7,000,000 at stake.
Joris Ruijs: 5♠5♥ 
Jorge Abreu: 4♠3♠
Ruijs showed a set of fives, while Abreu had straight and flush draws. The 6♣ turn gave Abreu a straight, and Ruijs needed the board to pair on the river to survive. The dealer turned over the A♦, and Ruijs' Main Event run came to an end in ninth place.
