Christian Zetzsche

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Soon after, Meiri called a bet worth 27,000 on the river and Uguccioni showed for top pair. "I got lucky," Meiri admitted while rolling over for the straight.

Willsch Loses Flip to Malec

Christian Zetzsche

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

The next German bows out and Mirko Willsch has to settle for 15th place and a payday of €4,306.

Down to 128,000, Willsch moved all in from under the gun and the action folded all the way around to Sebastian Malec in the big blind. He glanced at his cards and tossed in a single chip for the call.

Mirko Willsch:
Sebastian Malec:

The German had a flip for his tournament life and stood up from his chair when the flop came . On turn, Malec also hit the second over card and Willsch was drawing to the last two nines in the deck. Instead, the river completed the board and that reduced the field to the last 14.

Christian Zetzsche

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Daniil Kiselev soared into the lead late on Day 1, but his run in the €2,200 Main Event has come to an end in 14th place. "I folded the last three orbits," Kiselev said after he had shoved for 90,000 from the button and Zoltan Ban reshoved in the small blind. Action was on Anestis Anagnostidis in the big blind, who carefully counted his remaining stack. Ultimately, the Greek folded and the cards were tabled.

Daniil Kiselev:
Zoltan Ban:

While Kiselev took the lead on the flop, the hopes of a comeback took a hit with the turn. Only a ten or a queen would avoid the elimination of the Russian, yet the on the river was a blank and Kiselev was done for the day.
