Joris Ruijs

Joris Ruijs jammed his short stack with {q-Spades}{6-Spades} and was called by Patrik Antonius with {k-}{8-}.

The {7-}{5-}{4-}{10-}{j-} wasn't able to help Ruijs with a double-up and he hit the rail in third place for €38,800.

He said after his elimination that he was happy with the cash. Ruijs is also the chip leader heading into the final table of the Main Event tomorrow.

The two remaining players agreed to take a short break before starting heads-up action. Antonius has a 2:1 chip advantage against Joni Jouhkimainen to start play.
