Jason Wheeler has just been eliminated when he ran his pocket jacks into the ace-two of Anders Bisgaard. Bisgaard had the two of spades.
He hit a two on the flop with two spades, another spade came on the turn but the final blow to Wheeler was only dealt on the river when another two came.
Luciano Damico raised to 725,000 from the cutoff and was called by Marius Gierse on the button. Jon Sataoen shoved all in from the small blind, having both of them covered. Damico called and Gierse folded.

Jon Sataoen:
The board ran out - no danger for Damico and he doubled up for the 7,200,00 he had in total.
With only 90 players left, and 87 players cashing in this tournament, play has slowed down a little bit. Once the tournament reaches 89 players, hand-for-hand play will start.
[Removed:226] shoved all in for about 1,700,000 from mid-position. Abdelhakim Zoufri did the same but then from the cutoff for about 5,500,000. Action folded to Jack Sinclair in the big blind who called.

Jack Sinclair:
The players from the other tables all flocked to this table as the field only needed to lose two more players to be in the money. The floor announced the hole cards via the microphone for the people that couldn't see what was happening on the table. He then instructed the dealer to deal the flop:
- Zoufri hit a set of eights but Sinclair picked up a flush draw, Luksenberg needed a lot of help.
The rest of the board was completed with the on the turn and the on the river. Luksenberg was eliminated in 89th place while Zoufri was paid a double-up by Sinclair for the 5,450,000 he had in front of him.
