After very recently running his into Aristeidis Moschonas' and failing to improve, Giorgi Tsintsadze was left dangerously short on chips.
The man known only as EA raised to 1,400,000, with Giorgi Tsintsadze moving all-in next to act. SThe action slowly folded round, with EA making the immediate call. Tsintsadze tabled but had, very unfortunately, run into again!
It looked to be all over when EA drilled a set on the flop, but there was a little light at the end of the tunnel when the dealer turned the . It wasn't to be, though, as the river bricked the and the chips went EA's way.
Giorgi Tsintsadze will finish 9th and take home €5,000
Harald Heigl raised to 1,400,000 from the under-the-gun position, Martin Lechner on the button three-bet. The players in the blinds folded and Heigl shoved. Lechner called.
Martin Lechner:
Harald Heigl:
The board ran out - no ace or queen for Heigl to survive and he was sent home with €3,750 in total for finishing in 11th place.
Martin Lechner raised to 1,400,000 from the under-the-gun position and action folded to Stefan Raschbauer in the small blind. Raschbauer three-bet and Lechner shoved all in. Raschbauer called being covered by Lechner.

Stefan Raschbauer:
The board ran out - no help for Raschbauer and he made his way to the payout desk.
Vladimir Burstein raised to 1,100,000 from the under-the-gun position. Christian Georgescu, in early position, E. A. on the button, Giorgi Tsintsadze and Ela Kubincova in the blinds, all called.
They all checked through the on the flop. The turn brought them the , Tsintsadze, Kubincova and Burstein checked, Georgescu opened to 1,675,000. E. A. and Tsintadze folded and Kubincova shoved for about 5,800,000. Burstein folded and Georgescu thought for a while and then called.
Ela Kubincova:
Christian Georgescu:
Kubincova had turned two pair, queens and sevens. Georgescu needed the board to pair or a king to win this hand. The river completed the board with the for Kubincova to take the pot and stack up.
Rolando Lombardi opened to 1,250,000 from the cutoff, with action folding to Martin Lechner who defended his big blind.
Lechner checked the flop, prompting Lombardi to put out a 1,250,000 continuation bet, before coming over the top with check-raise to 3,500,000. Lombardi thought for a moment before making the call, with both players checking the turn.
The board paired on the river, on which Lechner very deliberately cut out 5,000,000 in pink chips and slowly slid them over the line. Lombardi gave it 30 seconds or so, before sliding his chips over the line equally as slowly. Lechner tabled for trips, which seemed to both surprise and frustrate Lombardi, as he reluctantly passed his cards face down to the dealer, while Lechner dragged in a pot to take him into second place.
It was a rough orbit for Golden Chip holder Pavel Chalupka. He doubled up Ela Kubincova blind on blind, his failing to hold, or even earn a chop versus as Kubincova made a flush on the runout.
The hand after that, he shoved his remaining 1,100,000 from the small blind, with Rene Wolech agreeing to call without looking. Wolech's hit a pair in the window, but ultimately fell short on the runout, as Chalupka doubled back up.
The very next hand, action was folded to Chalupka's button, where he moved all-in, followed quickly by Wolech in the small blind. Leventa Muszi couldn't believe his eyes as he looked down at closing the action in the big blind, confidently announcing "call." Chalupka's was in last place, as Wolech tabled , but both players were drawing dead on a flop. The dealer made absolutely sure of the outcome, putting another on the turn, giving Muszi quads, and the 12,000,000-chip pot.
Chalupka and Wolech both take home €1,750, as the field drops to just 18 players.
Action folded all the way to Gabor Deak in the small blind, who raised it up to 700,000 before Christian Georgescu put in the 3-bet, making it enough to set Deak all-in.
Deak gleefully called, tabling , and was in great shape to double up through Georgescu's .
The flop gave Deak a straight flush draw to go with his aces, but he didn't want to see an offsuit 5! The board paired on the turn, and double-paired on the river, with the spoils heading Deak's way.
The very next hand he picked up a big chunk of change when he got a 3-bet squeeze through on the button, and he can now place his Golden Chip atop an eight-figure stack.
