[€25,000 Super High Roller] Jean-Noël Thorel Bubbles, Ole Schemion Wins (€160.875)

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante
Ole Schemion
Ole Schemion

It was four-handed for a while in the €25,000 Super High Roller, but it's all done now.

Jean-Noël Thorel bubbled the event, going out with {10-Hearts}{9-Spades} against the {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} of Frank Williams. The flop came {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} making Thorel the heavy favorite, but the {K-Hearts} on the turn and {K-Diamonds} on the river made Williams a full house and Thorel was the last player to leave empty-handed.

Down to three, Charlie Carrel would be next with his head on the chopping block. He first clashed with Schemion in a huge pot with jack-seven up against ace-ten. He would hand the remainder of his chips to Schemion not much later, getting it all in pre flop with {Q-Hearts}{10-Clubs} up against {K-Hearts}{9-Hearts}. The board ran out {5-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{9-Spades}{K-Clubs} and with that river king, Carrel bowed out in third place for €64,350.

Frank Williams, a cash game specialist, started out heads up with a chip disadvantage but they were still deep. Nonetheless, it wouldn't take long. Williams got it in with {A-Spades}{J-Hearts} up against the {K-Diamonds}{K-Clubs} of Schemion. The board ran out an uneventful {8-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{6-Spades} and Williams left in second place, worth €96,525.

Ole Schemion has won the €25,000 Super High Roller and received a cheque worth €160,875. He'll play the Main Event on Tuesday.
