Jan Bendik is no more in this partypoker LIVE Million Germany Main Event after losing a big pot to German poker veteran Eddy Scharf. Scharf opened to 150,000 and a player flatted before Jan Bendik reraised to 475,000 out of the small blind. Just Scharf made the call.
The flop came down 
and Bendik lead out for 475,000, Scharf put Bendik to the test for around 900,000 more and Bendik committed the rest of his stack.
Scharf: 
Bendik: 
Scharf had flopped top set, but Bendik had outs to the flush. The

river paired the board and sent the pot to the 2001 Fixed Limit Omaha bracelet winner.

into the 
of Jaroslav Peter, and that leaves just 44 players left in this tournament.

Sonay Kehya made it 175,000 preflop, and only Paul Michaelis on the button made the call. The two players checked through the 
flop before Michaelis fired 160,000 on the 
turn. Kehya called quickly.
The river saw Kehya check a third time, and this Michaelis bet a hefty 560,000, prompting Kehya to throw a single blue 100K chip in the middle to signal a call.
Michaelis slammed 
in the felt, and Kehya shook his head and cut out the right amount.
"Good for you, baby," Kehya said in somewhat of a Scotty Nguyen imitation after handing over the chips. Michaelis just smiled.

Level 25
: 50,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Eddy Scharf entered the pot with a raise to 225,000 from second position, and Daniel Malek in the cutoff moved all-in for around 800,000. Lukas Jebany in the small blind moved in over the top for 1.7 million, and Eddy Scharf with the bigger stack quickly made the call.
Daniel Malek:
Lukas Jebany:
Eddy Scharf: 
The WSOP bracelet holder was a favorite to secure a late night double knock-out, and that was exactly what happened as the dealer completed the 
board.
Scharf is now the overwhelming chip leader with more than three times the average stack. A cautious guess on Scharf's massive stack would be around 7.5 million.
