Eibinger Chops; Then Busts

Level 6 : 2,500/5,000, 625 ante

Christopher "lissi stinkt" Frank min-raised to 10,000 and Matthias "iambest2" Eibinger jammed for 30,118 in the small blind. Thomas "WushuTM" Muehloecker reshoved out of the big blind and Frank eventually folded.

Matthias "iambest2" Eibinger: {a-Spades}{5-Diamonds}
Thomas "WushuTM" Muehloecker: {a-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}

On a board of {q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{6-Spades}{j-Clubs}, they chopped and Eibinger remained very short. He jammed two hands later with the {a-Spades}{7-Spades} and his bounty was chopped up as "serggorelyi7" with {k-Clubs}{3-Hearts} and Rodrigo "seijistar" Seiji with {k-Spades}{4-Spades} hit the king on the {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{k-Diamonds} board.

Volkmann Eliminated by "Passiveaggro"

Level 6 : 2,500/5,000, 625 ante
Volkmann eliminated
Volkmann eliminated

Bruno "great dant" Volkmann raised it up on the button and "Passiveaggro" three-bet to 40,000 in the small blind. Volkmann jammed for 212,400 total and "Passiveaggro" came along.

Bruno "great dant" Volkmann: {a-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Passiveaggro: {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}

The board ran out {k-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{4-Clubs} and the ace missed, as did the diamond draw.

Also on the rail is Talal "raidalot" Shakerchi who departed from another table right before that.

Hartmann and Pedes on the Rail

Level 6 : 2,500/5,000, 625 ante

Pascal "Päffchen" Hartmann eventually got his short stack in with the {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} only to see "serggorelyi7" table the {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}.

The board ran out {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{8-Spades}{4-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} and Hartmann was drawing dead on the turn.

In the meanwhile, Dinesh "NastyMinder" Alt had cracked the aces of Talal "raidalot" Shakerchi with queens to win a big pot and the bounty. Shakerchi bought back in and then looked up Daris "DEX888" Pedes with {k-Spades}{k-Clubs} versus {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}. The {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{10-Spades} board locked up the bounty for Shakerchi on the river.

Pedes vs Gonzalez
Pedes vs Gonzalez

Within the last three minutes, five players have been eliminated as the stack sizes are swinging back and forth rapidly.

Ole "wizowizo" Schemion was gone on the second bullet while Thomas "WushuTM" Muehloecker rivered trips jacks with {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} only to see Maxime "Daghemuneguu" Chilaud turn over {4-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} for a full house on the {q-Spades}{j-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{j-Hearts} board.

Andres "wisopekeño!" Gonzalez got his chips in with the {q-Hearts}{q-Spades} and Daris "DEX888" Pedes, who had also re-entered, looked him up out of the small blind with the {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}. The board brought {j-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} as Pedes rivered the king.

Shakerchi Above Half a Million

Level 7 : 3,000/6,000, 750 ante

Liviu "0human0" Ignat opened the action with a raise to 13,260 and was called by Dinesh "NastyMinder" Alt and Talal "raidalot" Shakerchi in the big blind. On a flop of {k-Hearts}{3-Spades}{2-Clubs} all three players checked and Shakerchi bet the {8-Spades} turn for 20,488, Ignat called and Alt folded.

The {5-Clubs} followed on the river and Shakerchi bet once more, making it 37,698 to go. That proved to be too much for Ignat who surrendered the pot.
