Simpson Heads Home

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

Stephen Freeman had opened to 25,000 in middle position and was flat-called by Eduard Fechita in the hijack.

It folded to Ian Simpson in the big blind, who committed his stack of 112,000 and was called by both opponents.

Freeman and Fechita checked through the 379KJ board. Simpson tabled A10 for ace-high, after which Freeman celebrated and showed J8 for a pair of jacks.

Freeman's celebration was premature, however, as Fechita had the best hand with his KQ, taking down the pot and earning Simpson's bounty.

Ziemichod Triples Up as Browne Busts Griffiths

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

Adrian Ziemichod moved his last 86,000 in as first to act. It folded to Sam Browne on the cutoff, who rejammed, covering the rest of the table.

Big blind Anthony Griffiths made a quick call for 266,000 once it had folded to him, revealing the cards.

Adrian Ziemichod: AK All in
Anthony Griffiths: 99 All in
Sam Browne: A10

"I just need to fade big cards," Griffitsh exclaimed. However, the K310 flop paired up both opponents, leaving him drawing to a nine. The K turn made Ziemichod trips, while the 4 river did not change anything.

Ziemichod tripled up, leaving Griffiths empty-handed as Browne took the side pot and Griffiths' bounty chip.

Worthington-Leese Among Three Casualties on Bubble

Level 18 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Leo Worthington-Leese
Leo Worthington-Leese

During the first hand on the stone bubble, Adrian Strobel raised to 16,000 in middle position. Leo Worthington-Leese was already all-in for his final 1,000 in the small blind, after which Henry Wilken called in the big blind.

Strobel continued for 10,000 on the KA7 flop, seeing Wilken fold his 1010 face-up.

Leo Worthington-Leese: 96 All in
Adrian Strobel: AJ

The room erupted in cheers as the 4 turn gave the crowd favorite a flush draw, but the enthusiasm was quickly tempered when the A river made Strobel trips to lock up the pot and eliminate Worthington-Leese on the stone bubble.

However, four more all-in and calls were announced. On one table, Nikolaos Mouroutis had over-bet shoved his stack of 320,000 into a pot of 225,000 on a river of 432KA.

He had been looked up by Thomas Clack, who showed A4 for two pair when the floor had arrived. Mouroutis could only show 99 for a caught bluff, sending him to the rail as well.

At another table, Rafael Navas had gone all in on the 4KJ410 river, being called by Erik Sturkenboom.

Navas showed K10 for kings and tens, but it was no good against the Q4 of Sturkenboom, who eliminated Navas on the stone bubble.

As the two remaining all-in players doubled up, the three eliminatees shared two min-cashes of €840, netting them €560 each.

The remaining players were all in the money as play continued with the mystery bounties in play.
