In a battle of the blinds, [Removed:179] bet the turn out of the small blind for 4,800 and Andre Haneberg called from the big blind. The river completed the board and Henning now made it 15,000 to go. Haneberg thought through the hand for a bit and called, but nodded as soon as henning rolled over for trips to claim the pot.
Both Hanno Offen and [Removed:65] had their hole cards open in front of them with Offen having the bigger stack on the board. Offen had for two pair, jacks and nines. But that wasn't enough for the [Removed:72] had for the double up with the higher two pair, jacks and tens.
"Sorry guys, I am out," Walid Abdi Ali said when he walked into the press area. The German further explained that he three-bet an open raise of Said Hossein Madani on the button while being in the small blind and quickly called the four-bet shove of Madani to put himself at risk for the last 40,000.
Madani won the flip with pocket tens against ace-king and Ali will be back in action in the Main Event in the upcoming days.
Wolfgang Beck shoved all in for his remaining 25,200 from mid-position. [Removed:179], sitting in the hijack, asked for a count. The dealer confirmed the amount and Henning shoved too with a stack which was almost three times as big. Everyone else folded so they were heads-up.

Among the next casualties were Phong Than Pham, [Removed:431] - for the second time today, and Sebo Degermenci.
Jay Tse and Andre Haneberg got into a big pot before the table broke and there were 65,000 in the middle with the completed board showing . "You never have a bluff there," Tse shrugged and folded with 50,000 behind. Haneberg said nothing and instead rolled over before collecting the pot.
There are currently 31 players remaining and all survivors at the end of the level will bag up their chips.
Grzegorz Derkowski just doubled through Martin Wendt as the team approached the table. The board read and only Derkowski's hole cards were still showing. He had to double up.
