Neymar Jr Eliminated by Ayras

Level 17 : 12,500/25,000, 3,250 ante

In a three-bet pot prior to the break, "neymar-jr" came along for 120,000 total when he battled with Charlie "Epiphany77" Carrel and saw a flop of {10-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} on which the Brazilian football star check-called a bet of 75,400. He check-called another 60,000 on the {k-Hearts} turn and check-folded the {q-Diamonds} river to a shove.

Down to just over 10 big blinds in the new level, he then jammed the button and was called by Pauli "Fiilismies" Ayras in the big blind.

"neymar-jr": {a-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}
Pauli "Fiiliesmies" Ayras: {k-Spades}{10-Hearts}

The {k-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{6-Diamonds} flop vaulted Ayras into the lead but Neymar Jr. had a flushdraw. No help appeared on the {q-Hearts} turn and the {3-Hearts} river was a blank, too.

More Action Before the Break

Level 17 : Blinds 12,500/25,000, 3,250 ante

Guntis "poker@luffyD" Aleskins departed and he was joined on the rail by several other High Rollers such as [Removed:575], Ole "wizowizo" Schemion, Connor "blanconegro" Drinan, Konstantin "krakukra" Maslak, and Anatoly "NL_Profit" Filatov.

Filatov jammed the 99 and was isolated by Ben "jenbizzle" Jones with the AK out of the small blind. The board ame K43106. Jones jumped to more than 1.1 million in chips but lost a big chunk again after that when Joel "Odonkor1" Nordkvist made top pair with AQ on a AJ1044 board.

Patrick "pads1161" Leonard doubled through Thomas "WushuTM" Muehloecker with KK versus AK. The chips went in preflop and the 8623Q board kept the Brit in contention.

When all was done and the dust had settled, just 49 players headed into a scheduled 5-minute break.

Neymar Scores a Goal; Loeliger Goes Up and Down on the Wing

Level 16 : 10,000/20,000, 2,500 ante

Simon "Igorkarkarof" Ronnow Pedersen sent his stack over to Linus "LLinusLLove" Loeliger when his {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} stood no chance versus {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts} on a {q-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{6-Hearts} board.

Patrick "pads1161" Leonard then doubled with {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs} against the dominated ace of Arsenii "josef_shvejk" Karmatckii when he turned a flush, but Karmatckii doubled through Loeliger shortly after with {a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} versus {k-Hearts}{k-Spades} on a {q-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} board.

In the meanwhile, Guntis "poker@luffyD" Aleskins clashed with football star "neymar-jr" and his {9-Hearts}{9-Spades} was well behind the {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds} of he prolific Brazilian goal scorer. The {5-Spades}{5-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{4-Spades}{10-Hearts} board confirmed the double and was not overruled by VAR.

"WRUUUUM" was at risk the next hand for crumbs and the {3-Hearts}{4-Hearts} stood no chance against Jorryt "TheCleaner" van Hoof's {k-Spades}{k-Clubs} on a {10-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{5-Spades} board.

Veldhuis Rises; Greenwood Busts

Level 16 : 10,000/20,000, 2,500 ante

Tomi "elmerixx" Brouk defended his big blind and check-called three barrels by PokerStars ambassador Lex "L. Veldhuis" on a board of {k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} to turn over {j-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} for second pair that improved to a jack-high flush. Veldhuis, however, had the best of it all the way with the {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades} and scored the knockout.

Among others, Sam "Str8$$$Homey" Greenwood ran out of chips when his dominated ace with {a-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} ended up second-best to the {a-Spades}{9-Spades} of "fishbones11" on a {10-Hearts}{8-Spades}{6-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} runout.

Double Ups and Bustouts

Level 15 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Simon "simon1471" Higgins open-shoved the small blind and Pedro "pvigar" Garagnani almost depleted his time bank before making the call with {k-Spades}{9-Hearts}.

Higgins was ahead preflop with {a-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} but the {k-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{9-Spades}{j-Hearts} board gave Garagnani two pair.

One hand later, Pieter "XMorphineX" Aerts lost his final chips with {a-Clubs}{8-Spades} against the {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} of Rafael "GM_VALTER" Moraes on a {9-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{10-Hearts} board.

Timothy "Tim0thee" Adams doubled in a flip with {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} against the {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} of Charlie "Epiphany77" Carrel who found no help on the {10-Spades}{6-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{4-Diamonds} board and lost a chunk of his big stack.

Russia's "VbV1990" bowed out the next hand blind on blind with {8-Clubs}{5-Clubs} against Connor "blanconegro" Drinan, who made the call with {a-Spades}{8-Hearts}. The {a-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{7-Clubs}{3-Spades} board was a sweat but top pair held for Drinan.

Game Over for Körrinho; "zazano" Doubles

Level 15 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Austrian High Roller "Körrinho" had won a SCOOP title earlier in the festival and ended up at risk with {3-Diamonds}{3-Spades} out of the small blind against Simon "Igorkarkarof" Ronnow Pedersen on the button, who had two overcards in {a-Spades}{7-Diamonds}.

The board came {q-Clubs}{9-Spades}{7-Spades}{5-Hearts}{2-Clubs} and that spelled the end for "Körrinho".

"zazano" was more fortunate as he doubled through Joni "bustoville" Jouhkimainen.

A cutoff raise by Jouhkimainen for 36,800 was called by Gianluca "Tankanza" Speranza in the small blind and Will "hellzito" Aruda in the big blind. "zazano" in the big blind made it 176,000 to go and Jouhkimainen squeezed to 1,000,000. Speranza and Arruda folded while "zazano" called for 780,891 total.

"zazano": {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Joni "bustoville" Jouhkimainen: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

The board came {10-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{4-Spades}{q-Spades}{9-Hearts} and "zazano" scored a big double for more than 1.6 million.
