Sonay Kehya
Sonay Kehya

Sonay Kehya finished 7th in the partypoker Million Germany Main Event here in Rozvadov back in June this year, and reached the last table once more. However, this time the Dutchman had to settle for 9th place and a payday of €11,000.

Kehya open-shoved for 19.5 million from middle position and the action folded to Aleksandar Tomovic in the big blind, who quickly called.

Sonay Kehya: {A-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}
Aleksandar Tomovic: {A-Clubs}{A-Spades}

The Dutchman was in need of help, but ended up drawing dead on the turn of a board {Q-Spades}{9-Spades}{9-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{6-Spades}. The remaining eight players will now be on a short break to take care of the official final table picture.
