Onnis Finds a Double

Level 33 : 120,000/240,000, 30,000 ante
Emanuele Onnis
Emanuele Onnis

Fabian Gumz raised to 550,000 from the button and Emanuele Onnis three-bet to 1,400,000 which Gumz called.

The flop came {k-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}, Onnis shoved for 6,100,000 and Gumz called after considering it for a bit.

Emanuele Onnis: {8-Clubs}{j-Spades}
Fabian Gumz: {k-Spades}{q-Hearts}

The turn was the {q-Spades} to give Gumz two pair but completed Onnis' straight in the process. Onnis needed to avoid another king or queen to double up.

The river completed the board with the {3-Spades} which was a safe card for Onnis as he got paid the double-up to balance out the stacks a bit more.

Unscheduled Break

Level 32 : 100,000/200,000, 30,000 ante

The table is being prepared for heads-up and the players have taken an unscheduled break for about 30 minutes with 15 minutes left on the clock with a small blind of 100,000, big blind of 200,000, and a running ante of 30,000.

Nicolaj D'Antoni Eliminated in 3rd Place (€50,000)

Level 32 : 100,000/200,000, 30,000 ante
Nicolaj D'Antoni
Nicolaj D'Antoni

Fabian Gumz completed the small blind and Nicolaj D'Antoni raised to 425,000. Gumz shoved to put D'Antoni at risk and D'Antoni snap-called.

Nicolaj D'Antoni: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}
Fabian Gumz: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

The flop came {q-Spades}{9-Clubs}{6-Spades} for Gumz to flop a pair of queens immediately to stay ahead. D'Antoni needed a king to stay alive.

The turn was the {5-Hearts} which wasn't one of them and neither was the {4-Hearts} on the river as D'Antoni was eliminated in 3rd place for €50,000.

Henning Andre

Fabian Gumz shoved from the small blind and Henning Andre called in the big blind for the 1,900,000 he had behind.

Henning Andre: {a-Hearts}{7-Clubs}
Fabian Gumz: {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}

The flop came {j-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{6-Spades} for Gumz to hit a pair of eights.

The turn was the {4-Diamonds} for Andre to pick up a gutshot to the straight draw but the {9-Diamonds} on the river wasn't that as Andre was sent to the rail in fourth place.
