Minutes after the third level of the day started, Vicky Coren-Mitchell had the all in triangle in front of her after shoving for about 13,000 in chips from the cutoff. Dimitar Danchev in the small blind was the one calling.
Coren-Mitchell was looking for help with her as Danchev had brought for the confrontation. The board at no point made things exciting, and Coren-Mitchell made her way to the exit.
"It was nice playing with you. Have a nice day" she said gracefully while standing up to make her way out the door.
Jean-Philippe Rohr and Dominik Panka had already tangled earlier today when the PCA champion check-called the turn bet and then bet the river with a pair of tens. This time the action was similar with Panka check-calling 6,000 on the turn before leading the river for 17,000. Rohr tanked for a bit and then released his cards.
As we walked down to the tournament room, Miguel Use was coming up the stairs with a wry smile on his face. "Gee gee!" he said, confirming our assumption he just busted.
Use told us he had shoved his last nine big blinds in before the flop with suited under the gun. A player had looked him up with pocket nines and tens and jacks were nowhere to be found on the board so use made his exit.
Use won't be speeding back home to Belgium just yet though, he has a final table to play tonight. Use made it to the final eight players of the FPS €2,000 High Roller event that will see its conclusion tonight after the Main Event ends. Use, with 645,000 in chips, is one of the shorter stacks in that event though. Vladimir Troyanovskiy (3,955,000) and Marcin Wydrowski (2,730,000) divide all the big denomination chips.

An early positioned player opened to 2,500 and Fernand Michelet flatted from the next seat over. Action came around to Kevin MacPhee in the cutoff and he three-bet to 7,600. Action folded back to the original raiser and he kicked his cards into the muck. Michelet four-bet all in for about 16,500 and MacPhee instantly called.
MacPhee:
Michelet:
The board ran out , allowing MacPhee to win the pot and eliminate Michelet from play. With this win, MacPhee's stack has increased to about 130,000.
Eugene Katchalov got the pot going with a bet of 2,700 and found that Jan Przysucha wanted to play a pot with him.
The flop was and a bet of 3,500 from Katchalov got called by Przysucha. The turn card saw a further bet of 7,500 called by Przysucha and the popped up on the river. Both players checked but and Katchalov turned over the winning , missing the flush draw but spiking the ace.
