Julian Thomas Runs Out of Chips

Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Start-of-the-day chip leader Julian Thomas moved all in for his last 81,000 and Paul Michaelis called all in for his last 39,000 out of the blinds.

Paul Michaelis: {A-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}
Julian Thomas: {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}

Thomas jokingly asked for an ace and his wish was immediately granted with the {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} flop. Both the {4-Clubs} turn and the {6-Spades} river failed to improve Thomas and Michaelis doubled with a full house.

Soon after, Thomas got the rest of it in from under the gun and Jan-Peter Jachtmann three-bet to 75,000, forcing out everyone else.

Julian Thomas: {K-Clubs}{8-Hearts}
Jan-Peter Jachtmann: {K-Spades}{Q-Clubs}

The flop of {Q-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} gave Jachtmann top pair, and the {A-Clubs} turn and {10-Spades} river left Thomas empty-handed to reduce the field to the last 12. Half of them will leave empty-handed still, as just the top six receive a portion of the prize pool.
