Kruger Busts Tellenbach and Damages Hardt

Richard Hayes

Level 18 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Malte Von Ostrowski opened to 16,000 and was faced with a three-bet jam for around 48,000 by Alfred Tellenbach.

Dirk Hardt was in the next seat and three-bet to 150,000, but the action wasn't done there as Marcel Kruger moved all in for 94,000, with Von Ostrowski getting out of the way, and Hardt covering both players.

Alfred Tellenbach: A♠9♠ All in
Marcel Kruger: J♥J♣ All in
Dirk Hardt: A♦K♣

Kruger was in good shape to take the pot, and the Q♦6♣2♠8♠3♥ runout confirmed the same and Tellenbach's exit.

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Malte Von Ostrowski was raking in a big pot, looking in the region of 600,000 after he had Q♥8♥ on 4♠2♥8♠Q♦4♦, forcing his opponent, Halis Bozkurt, to muck.

Richard Hayes

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Dirk Hardt was all-in for 60,000 and at risk versus Marcel Kruger.

Dirk Hardt: 3♣3♦ All in
Marcel Kruger: 10♥10♦

Hardt looked in trouble, but the 3♠4♥Q♠ turn gave him bottom set, and left Kruger drawing thin.

However the 10♠ rolled off on the turn to put Kruger back in front with a set of tens, leaving Hardt drawing to the case three, and it did not come on the 2♥ river.

Jonathan Christensen, Jonas Heuser, Martin Qvist, Atush Esker and Piotr Zapolski were also seen leaving the tournament area around this time.

Richard Hayes

Level 20 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

On a flop of K♦6♠9♣ and with around 110,000 in the middle, Julian Paulsen checked to Malte Von Ostrowski, who moved all in with the covering stack, with Paulsen playing about 280,000 behind.

After some thought, Paulsen made the call.

Julian Paulsen: K♣Q♠ All in
Malte Von Ostrowski: Q♦J♣

Paulsen was in good shape for a double-up with top pair versus his opponent's gutshot, and it was confirmed by the 2♠ turn and J♥ river.

Van Dijk Busts Kehren

Richard Hayes

Level 20 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Action folded to Gregory Kehren in the small blind, who completed. Stan Van Dijk bumped it up to 42,000 in the big blind, and Kehren jammed for 360,000 total. After some thought, Van Dijk made the call to put Kehren at risk.

Gregory Kehren: A♠9♥ All in
Stan Van Dijk: A♦J♦

Kehren had been unfortunate to run into a better ace in a blind-on-blind spot, and the A♥10♦Q♣7♦2♥ confirmed his exit, Van Dijk's better kicker proving crucial.

Von Ostrowski Loses the Absolute Minimum in Cooler

Richard Hayes

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

In an interesting twist of fate, the top two, Stan Van Dijk and Malte Von Ostrowski have been seated directly together at the last four tables.

Van Dijk limped, Von Ostrowski followed behind him, as did two other players.

On the J♦J♣6♠ flop, Van Dijk led out with a bet of 25,000 and only Von Ostrowski called.

The 2♠ rolled off on the turn, and Van Dijk fired again for 85,000. Von Ostrowski again called.

The 4♥ river completed the board. Van Dijk fired out a bet of 275,000 and Von Ostrowski snap-called. Van Dijk showed A♣J♥ for trip jacks, and locked shocked when his opponent turned over K♦J♣, perhaps wondering how more chips did not go in the pot.

Player	Chips	Progress
Stan Van Dijk	1,650,000 400,000	400,000
Malte Von Ostrowski	870,000 640,000	640,000

Richard Hayes

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Mehmet Aladag was all-in for 403,000 and at risk versus Simone Demasi.

Mehmet Aladag: J♦J♥ All in
Simone Demasi: A♠K♥

Aladag was ahead in a race, but it didn't last long, with the flop coming A♦3♣9♣. The K♠ turn improved Demasi to two pair, and the 6♣ river was not the jack Aladag required to remain in the tournament.

Jan Bloch, Baris Topuz and Tommy Eriksson were also seen leaving the tournament area shortly after, and we are now at the final three table redraw.

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Jonas Stechbarth moved all in for 225,000 and Malte Von Ostrowski followed suit for not much more, around 300,000, while Timo Scarcella called behind, covering both players.

Jonas Stechbarth: J♣7♣ All in
Malte Von Ostrowski: 10♥10♦ All in
Timo Scarcella: Q♣Q♥

Scarcella looked set for a double knockout with his pocket queens, but the runout came 7♥4♦2♣7♠J♥, Stechbarth hitting a full house to secure the triple up, and Scarcella winning the small side pot and eliminating former chip leader Von Ostrowski.

Player	Chips	Progress
