Rens Feenstra Eliminated in 13th Place (€77,800)

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante
Rens Feenstra
Rens Feenstra

[Removed:146] opened under the gun for 130,000 and his neighbor Rens Feenstra shoved for 1,025,000. Action folded around to the blinds who both contemplated their options for a bit before folding. Guerfi called.

Rens Feenstra: {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}
[Removed:146]: {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}

The {2-Hearts}{10-Spades}{3-Hearts} did nothing for Feenstra and he asked for the jack of spades to hit the river. The dealer/poker gods didn't oblige as the {10-Diamonds} hit.

The {5-Clubs} on the river was a blank and Feenstra was designated to a spot on the rail from here on out.

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante
Mauricio Salazar Sanchez
Mauricio Salazar Sanchez

Action folded to Alex Difelice on the button and he opened for 120,000. The small blind gave up rather quickly but big blind Mauricio Salazar Sanchez had bigger plans. Just like the hand before, he shoved all in, this time for 570,000 total.

Difelice tanked for a bit before he called.

Mauricio Salazar Sanchez: {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}
Alex Difelice: {J-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

The board ran out {4-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{8-Spades}{4-Clubs}{4-Hearts} and Sanchez hit the rail in 14th place. The remaining 13 players are now guaranteed €77,800.

On the feature table, Brian Kaufman Esposito limped the small blind and Albert Daher raised to 210,000, which Kaufman called.

The flop came {Q-Spades}{8-Clubs}{3-Spades} and Kaufman checked, Daher bet 105,000 and was called. Both checked the {A-Hearts} turn before Kaufman bet the {5-Hearts} river for 130,000. Daher quickly called and Kaufman showed {A-Spades}{7-Hearts} for a pair of aces to build his stack further.

All Big Stacks on the Feature Table

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

With two eliminations on the feature table, the next big blind was moved over to the feature table and that happened to be Brian Kaufman Esposito, who is the chip leader right now. The feature table has 34 million chips in play, while the outer table has less than 16 million combined and barely saw any action past a flop so far.

Andre Akkari raised to 125,000 from the cutoff and Sebastian Sorensson called from the big blind. On the {Q-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{3-Spades} flop, the Swede checked and folded to a bet of Akkari.

The next hand, Akkari raised to 125,000 from the hijack and Sorensson three-bet the small blind to 330,000 in order to force a fold.

Andrew Hedley Eliminated in 15th Place (€69,600)

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante
Andrew Hedley
Andrew Hedley

Sebastian Sorensson limped in from under the gun and Andrew Hedley moved all in for 860,000 from the cutoff. Usman Siddique in the big blind gave it some thought and folded while Sorensson called.

Andrew Hedley: {A-Hearts}{J-Spades}
Sebastian Sorensson: {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}

After the {Q-Hearts}{10-Spades}{3-Spades} flop, the Scotsman asked for the {9-Spades} or {8-Spades} to increase his outs and did get a glimpse of hope on the {4-Spades} turn. However, the {8-Clubs} river was a blank and Hedley left the feature table with a smile, €69,600 richer.

Toma Takes Big Pot Off Akkari

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Andre Akkari raised to 125,000 from under the gun and Tsugunari Toma three-bet to 400,000 from one seat over, which Akkari called. The flop fell {8-Spades}{5-Clubs}{3-Hearts} and both players checked.

After the {K-Hearts} turn, Akkari checked and called a bet worth 375,000 by Toma before checking again the {A-Spades} on the river. Toma cut out a bet worth 1.1 million and Akkari quickly called to see Toma fist pump and turn over {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs} for a flopped set. Akkari showed his {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} for two pair and dropped below Toma in chips, while Albert Daher has taken over the lead.

Yaron Zeev Malki: {A-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Albert Daher: {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}

The board ran out {10-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{K-Spades}{2-Diamonds} and Malki was eliminated in 16th place for €61,400. All remaining 15 players are guaranteed at least €69,600
