Just eight players remain and there will be a short interlude while the final eight have a photograph taken.
Anton Bertilsson limped for 80,000 and chip leader Stephen Graner made it 230,000 to go on the button. Jakub Slemr reraised to 715,000 out of the big blind and Bertilsson squeezed out a four-bet to 1,400,000. Graner let go but Slemr moved all in for 2,370,000 to put himself at risk. Bertilsson called and a classic coin flip took place.
Bertilsson: 
Slemr: 
The Swede hit one of his two over cards on the 
flop and neither the 
turn nor the 
river improved Slemr anymore. The local hero was sent to the rail in 9th place for €72,210 and the official final table was set. Play will carry on until the end of this level or until the final six are reached, whatever comes first.

Graner checked and Bertilsson bet 280,000.
Graner threw it away.
Miltiadis Kyriakides made it 120,000 under the gun and Remi Castaignon and Fabio Sperling called as did big blind Jonathan Wong to make it four way to a flop of 
.
Wong checked and Kyriakides bet 200,000 before Sperling cut out a raise to 535,000. Wong got out of the way and Kyriakides gave it some thought, looking pained and holding his head in his hands before checking his hole cards again and mucking.
