George Danzer Eliminated in 29th (€23,300)

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
George Danzer
George Danzer

David Peters opened the hijack for 26,000 and Mike McDonald on the button shoved all in for 163,000. Big blind George Danzer shoved for 184,000 and Peters folded after some tanking.

Mike McDonald: {K-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}
George Danzer: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

The board ran out {5-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{J-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{A-Spades} and Danzer was left with 17,000 while McDonald doubled.

Danzer was all in the next hand from the small blind against David Peters who had opened. Peters had the best hand with {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} up against Danzer's {K-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} but the two chopped the pot because of an all heart board: {5-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{2-Hearts}.

Danzer had 30,000 left and shoved the next hand from the button. Both Nicola D'Anselmo in the small blind and Marc Etienne McLaughlin in the big blind called.

Both players checked the {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} flop and D'Anselmo bet 20,000 on the {5-Clubs} turn. McLaughlin folded and D'Anselmo showed {A-Diamonds}{2-Spades} for top pair. Danzer tabled {Q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} for a gut shot. The river came the {5-Spades} and Danzer made his exit.

The action folded to Bernd Vogelhuber on the button and he moved all in for a little over 200,000 chips and Simon Higgins called from the big blind.

Higgins: {A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Vogelhuber: {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

The board ran out {10-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{6-Spades} and Vogelhuber was knocked out. There will be a full redraw now as we are down to three tables of eight.

Michael Tureniec Eliminated in 24th place (€26,300)

Level 20 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Michael Tureniec
Michael Tureniec

We missed the pre flop action, but overheard Nick Petrangelo tell Thomas Muehloecker what had happened. Tureniec had opened and Petrangelo had three-bet. Tureniec four-bet shoved and Petrangelo had made the call.

Michael Tureniec: {A-Diamonds}{J-Spades}
Nick Petrangelo: {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs}

The board ran out {10-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{8-Spades}{10-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} and despite picking up a gutshot and chop pot outs, Tureniec busted in 24th place. Because this hand was played while the other tables halted for the redraw, only 23 players will return after the redraw is done.
