Cybulski and Kuznetsov Out; Mattsson Doubles

Level 17 : 7,000/14,000, 1,750 ante

Tomasz "Sphinx87" Cybulski lost the remainder of his short stack with {9-Clubs}{7-Clubs} against the {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts} of Ihar "OMGitshunt" Soika on a {k-Clubs}{8-Spades}{3-Spades}{7-Spades}{j-Clubs} runout after Soika had already won the previous hand with aces and sixes.

Simon "C. Darwin2" Mattsson was at risk with {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs} in a battle of the blinds against Michael "merla888" Gathy who held the {8-Spades}{8-Hearts} and the Swede flopped trips, then rivered a full house on the {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{10-Hearts} board.

Timofey "Trueteller" Kuznetsov bowed out when Pascal "Päffchen" Hartmann defended out of the big blind against his button raise and check-called two streets, then jammed the {k-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{3-Spades} river. Kuznetsov called with {k-Diamonds}{7-Spades} but Hartmann had the goods with {q-Spades}{5-Spades} for trips.

Even More Day 2 Eliminations

Level 17 : 7,000/14,000, 1,750 ante

The field has already dropped below 200 remaining contenders as 50 players ran out of chips in the first 40 minutes of play on Day 2.

Sami "Lrslzk" Kelopuro was the former SCOOP Main Event champion with the biggest stack heading into the day but became the first to bust, which leaves four hopefuls in the hunt for a repeat victory.

Speranza Doubles Through Addamo

Level 17 : 7,000/14,000, 1,750 ante

They checked a {k-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} flop and the {4-Diamonds} followed on the turn. Addamo bet 68,060 and Speranza caleld to see the {j-Hearts} on the river.

Addamo moved all-in for 433,794, which had Speranza covered by a few big blinds, and the champion of 2018 and 2019 snap-called with {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs} for top set while Addamo was bluffing with {8-Spades}{6-Spades} for a busted gutshot.

Therme and Carrel Among Next Casualties

Level 17 : 7,000/14,000, 1,750 ante

Rafael "GM_VALTER" Moraes took a flip against a short-stacked Jonathan "Corback_fr" Therme and his {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} on the button turned an unbeatable full house against the {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades} of Therme in the cutoff as the board ran out {a-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{7-Spades}{a-Spades}{3-Spades}.

Corback_fr eliminated

The wild ride of Charlie "Epiphany77" Carrel also came to an end shortly after when he once again clashed with Alexander "Black88" Trofimov.

Carrel was short and at risk holding the {q-Clubs}{j-Spades} in the big blind. Trofimov was ahead preflop with {k-Diamonds}{9-Spades} in the small blind and the {a-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{7-Spades} board ensured that the king was enough.

Three Casualties in a Row

Level 18 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

The 2020 SCOOP two-time champion Ilya "Leqenden" Anatsky was at risk with a short stack from the cutoff and tabled the {a-Hearts}{5-Hearts}. "girafganger7" looked him up out of the big blind with the superior {a-Spades}{10-Hearts} and the {q-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} board let the kicker play.

One hand later, "girafganger7" flipped with {k-Diamonds}{q-Spades} in a battle of the blinds versus "anteen"'s {3-Spades}{3-Diamonds} and the {j-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{5-Spades}{k-Spades}{8-Spades} board gave the online MTT grinder top pair.

Fast forward another hand and the next short stack was at risk out of the big blind in "Remi Lebo_10" with the {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}. This time it was Pieter "XMorphineX" Aerts who got involved with {10-Spades}{10-Hearts} in the hijack and held up on a {q-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{2-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{4-Spades} runout.

Fewer Than 170 Remain

Level 18 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Igor "lechuckpoker" Kurganov came back from a severe short stack and doubled once, then he took on the button shove of Noah "Exclusive" Boeken and called in the big blind with the {a-Spades}{4-Hearts}. Boeken only had {q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} and the {9-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} board kept ace-high in the lead.

One hand later, "Wildace_hun" departed when he ended up second-best with {k-Clubs}{j-Spades} against the {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs} of Jens "Jeans89" Kyllönen on a {a-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{5-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{q-Hearts} board.
