Level 24 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Gjergji Lazer
Gjergji Lazer

Gjergji Lazer just became our fourth tournament casualty during the opening blind level of Day 3. Lazer got it all-in with {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} preflop against Robert Markus Manner who woke up with [KsKxc]

Lazer was unable to improve his hand when the board ran out {9-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}, and was eliinated in 13th place for €2,289.

We also just learned that when he is not playing poker, Lazer sells ice cream to King's Casino which visitors to the casino can enjoy at the buffet.

Gerald Hiebler Eliminated in 14th Place (€1,998)

Level 24 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Gerald Hiebler
Gerald Hiebler

We just had our third early exit with Germany's Gerald Hiebler losing back to back hands.

In the first hand, Hiebler jammed all-in with {A-Spades}{J-Spades} only to be called in late position by Benoit Kuhn who woke up with {K-}{K-}. The board was of no help to Hiebler, and he was down to just 260,000 chips.

In the next hand Jakub Krämer was all-in for about 700,000 chips with {K-}{J-}, and Hiebler called off with {Q-}{5-} and once again was unable to improve his hand on the board.

Kuhn meanwhile has now reached the 3,000,000 chip mark. He's been chatting up the table in a friendly manner since he sat down, and seems like this hand has only encouraged more table talk from him.

Dieter Wins a Battle Against Can

Level 24 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Christian Waldemar Dieter
Christian Waldemar Dieter

At the table, the chip leader Daniel Can took place just an exciting hand off, which ended in a bold move by Christian Voss.

The action began with Daniel Can opening preflop from middle position and Christian Waldemar Dieter calling from the big blind.

Can fired a c-bet of 240,000 on the flop of {9-Spades}{j-Hearts}{6-Hearts} and Dieter quickly called. Can fired again, this time for 330,000, when the {9-Diamonds} hit the turn. Dieter thought 30 seconds and then presented for 1.05 million All-in.

"You do not have nine," Can said. A shrug of his opponent was the answer. "Flush draw?" No Answer.

Finally Can folds and Dieter turns over {6-Spades}{4-Spades}.

Shortly after Jurgen Melan leaving the tournament arena, two short stacks on the other table, Sasa Klein and Robert Markus Manner, were battling it out.

Klein: {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}
Manner: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

Klein was all but drawing dead on the flop of {9-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{8-Spades}, needing runner runners to hit the rest of the board, when Manner spiked a set. Although the {Q-Diamonds} gave Klein a pair, his fate was sealed regardless of the card that appeared on the river. After the {5-Diamonds} appeared on the river, Klein was officially eliminated in 15th place for €1,998.
