Erkan Atmaca Eliminated in 11th Place (€19,909)

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

Down to 230,000 and on the button, Erkan Atmaca shoved all in. Small blind [Removed:172] asked for a count, glanced over to the big blind sizing up Joey Vittali's stack, and eventually called. Vittali folded.

Erkan Atmaca: {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs}
[Removed:172]: {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}

Atmaca flopped a draw on {K-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} but the flush never materialized. The {4-Hearts} on the turn and {3-Diamonds} on the river were blanks and Atmaca exited the tournament room.

Down to 10 players now, one more player is to bust before the official final table is set and play halts for the day.

Jan Eric Schwippert Eliminated in 12th Place (€16,649)

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Jan Eric Schwippert
Jan Eric Schwippert

Jasper Meijer van Putten opened for 35,000 and big blind Jan Eric Schwippert moved all in for just around 230,000. Meijer van Putten didn't have too hard a call and instantly put in the necessary chips.

Jasper Meijer van Putten: {K-Spades}{K-Clubs}
Jan Eric Schwippert: {A-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

While Schwippert hit a nine on the {J-Spades}{9-Spades}{7-Hearts} flop, the {Q-Diamonds} on the turn and {8-Diamonds} on the river made it all for nothing. Schwippert, one of the most feared German players on the circuit, out in 12th place.

Max Lehmanski Eliminated in 13th Place (€16,649)

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Max Lehmanski
Max Lehmanski

Start of day chip leader Max Lehmanski is no longer an active participant in the tournament. He can join the €10,000 High Roller if he pleases.

From the small blind, Vlada Stojanovic pushed all in. Lehmanski called from the big blind.

Vlada Stojanovic: {Q-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}
Max Lehmanski: {J-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

The board ran out {3-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} and Lehmanski made his way to the payout desk.

Daniel Tang Eliminated in 14th Place (€13,971)

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Daniel Tang
Daniel Tang

Daniel Tang never really recovered from the failed big hand where he used a blocker in a bluff, but couldn't get his opponent to fold top pair.

In his last hand, Tang shoved with {5-Diamonds}{5-Spades}. Algarra Vidana called with {J-Spades}{J-Clubs}.

The {5-Clubs} in the window seemed good for Tang, but the {J-Hearts} (and {K-Clubs}) that followed canceled his set out. The {4-Spades} on the turn and {3-Hearts} on the river weren't the single card Tang was looking for, and he exited in fourteenth place.

Jim Saft Eliminated in 15th Place (€13,971)

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

Jim Saft was short and made his last move with {K-Hearts}{6-Spades}, shoving for his remaining 101,000. Pascal Baumgarter called holding {A-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}.

The board ran out {8-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{J-Spades}{8-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} and just like that, it was all over for Saft.

Goran Mandic Eliminated in 16th Place (€13,971)

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Goran Mandic
Goran Mandic

Alberto Stegeman opened the action with a raise to 26,000 and big blind Goran Mandic called. Mandic checked on {4-Spades}{3-Spades}{3-Hearts} and Stegeman bet 22,000. Mandic check-raised to 60,000 and Stegeman called.

The {J-Clubs} turn saw Mandic fire 42,000. Stegeman called.

The {3-Clubs} river made for a double paired board and Mandic checked. Stegeman thought about it for a bit and eventually bet 117,000. Mandic called but mucked upon being shown {A-Spades}{A-Clubs} by Stegeman.

Mandic, with just 75,000 or so left, was in the small blind the next hand. Action folded to him and he shoved with {Q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}. Big blind Jasper Meijer van Putten called with {K-Spades}{6-Diamonds} and ended up coming out on top: {7-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{K-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}.

James King Eliminated

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

James King opened the cutoff and Teun Mulder defended his big blind. Both players checked on {A-Spades}{5-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} and so the {2-Clubs} on the turn was seen for free. Mulder lead out for 82,000 and King called in position.

The {4-Clubs} completed the board and would turn out to be anything but a blank. Mulder shoved for 384,000, a bit more than King had behind. Eventually, King called.

Mulder showed {3-Clubs}{6-Clubs} for a rivered straight, King mucked {A-Diamonds}{2-Spades} for two pair.

Down to 16 players, a complete redraw is in process.

Velasevic and Tang Tangle

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Daniel Tang
Daniel Tang

Daniel Tang opened under the gun for 27,000 and saw the action fold to Danilo Velasevic in the small blind. Velasevic three-bet to 106,000 and the big blind folded. Tang opted to call.

The flop came {K-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} and both Velasevic and Tang checked. Both checked as well on the {7-Clubs} turn before the {2-Clubs} completed the board. Velasevic bet out 137,000 and Tang didn't waste much time raising to 378,000. Velasevic used about two minutes to think before he called.

Tang showed {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades} for nothing but queen-high with the nut flush blocker. Velasevic tabled {K-Diamonds}{J-Clubs} and took down the pot.
