Stephan Inhester Eliminated in Second Place (€1,920)

After a short battle, it's all over.

Mark Vos had been joking about running the clock down so his opponent would have to pay a bigger big blind, but he didn't have to in the end. With Stephan Inhester limping from the button, Vos dwelt for a few moments before announcing, "I will raise, 99,000."

"All in!" declared his foe abruptly.

"Call," said Vos.

Vos = {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}
Inhester = {K-Clubs}{10-Spades}

The {5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{A-Clubs} flop was pretty emphatic, and although the {Q-Clubs} turn teased a cheeky backdoor straight, it didn't quite arrive on the {Q-Spades} river and Vos was the victor.
