Justus Held Eliminated in 26th Place ($5,815)
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Abdullah Alajmi again limped in and Ermanno Di Nicola raised to 140,000 in middle position. Justus Held called in the cutoff, while Alajmi also called.
The flop came 8♦K♠K♣ and Di Nicola bet 130,000. Held called, but Alajmi raised to 475,000.
Di Nicola folded and Held called to see the 6♠ turn. Alajmi then bet 600,000, Held moved all in for 700,000, and Alajmi snap-called with K♥8♥ for a flopped full house.
Held showed K♦Q♣ and couldn't find any help on the 5♣ river as he was eliminated in 26th place.
"It's your tournament, my friend. Running unbelievable," Di Nicola told Alajmi.
