Niek Minten Eliminated in 21st Place (€45,000)
Level 25
: 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
With only 2 seconds left in the level, the dealer started a shuffle and so one last hand was played while players from other tables were already enjoying their break.
Niek Minten opened under the gun plus one on the 7-handed table. Usman Siddique in the cutoff 3-bet to 275,000 and action folded back around to Minten. He 4-bet shoved for what looked like 1.3 million and Siddique called.

The 
flop wasn't helping Minten much but the 
on the turn gave him some outs. The 
on the river, however, wasn't one of them and Minten exited in 21st place for €45,000.
The remaining 20 players went on break and will return to 25,000/50,000 with 5,000 ante. They are all guaranteed €53,200 now.
