Level 42 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 62,500 ante

"Geigamascht" Eliminated in 21st Place ($13,272.45)

Arsenii "josef_shvejk" Karmatckii raised to 1,000,000 from middle position before "Geigamascht" put in the three-bet to 2,600,000 from the cutoff. The action folded back to Karmatckii, who four-bet jammed. He covered "Geigamascht"s stack of ten million and "Geigamascht" made the call.

"Geigamascht": A♣Q♣
Arsenii "josef_shvejk" Karmatckii: J♥J♣

A classic flip and it would be decided in Karmatckii's favor when the board ran out 7♦2♠3♠7♣2♣. Karmatckii's jacks gave him the higher two pair, and "Geigamascht" was the latest player to exit from the SCOOP Main Event.

Level 42 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 62,500 ante

"Grekzorba" Eliminated in 22nd Place ($13,272.45)

The action folded to "Geigamascht" in the small blind, and they opted to go all-in, covering "Grekzorba"s 3,270,723 stack. "Gregzorba" made the call for their tournament life and the cards were tabled.

"Grekzorba": K♥9♣
"Geigamascht": A♠7♦

"Geigamascht" had the better hand preflop and would crush "Grekzorba"s dreams once the 10♠A♦A♥ flop was dealt. The 9♥ turn officially resulted in the end of their tournament as no cards were left in the deck that could save them.

The inconsequential 10♦ river rolled off and "Grekzorba"s seat became unoccupied

"FabioC.p.br" Eliminated in 23rd Place ($13,272.45)

"Bretera" started the action with a minraise of 1,000,000 from under the gun before "FabioC.p.br" made it 2,400,000 to go from middle position. "19Dan86" then came in with a cold four-bet jam from the button worth 18,455,200 and "Bretera" quickly folded. "FabioC.p.br" made the quick call while being covered by the jam and was flipping for his tournament life.

"FabioC.p.br": A♣K♥
"19Dan86": Q♥Q♣

"19Dan86" flopped a set on Q♠3♣J♣, and while the 7♣ turn brought a sweat, the K♠ river would mean the end of "FabioC.p.br"s Main Event run.

Frank Visser

Level 41 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 50,000 ante

"Alex Shepel" Eliminated in 24th Place ($9,384.84)

"Alex Shepel" entered the final three tables as the absolute short stack, and got his 1,377,952 remaining chips in from under the gun. "HemmingWai" then minraised from middle position and the rest of the table folded.

"Alex Shepel": Q♥J♥
"HemmingWai": Q♣K♠

"Alex Shepel" was dominated and "HemmingWai" immediately flopped top pair on 6♦K♣4♥. The 8♦ turn meant that "Alex Shepel" had no chance to win the hand, and he had to take his leave once the 6♣ river rolled off.

Final Red Spade Eliminated As Colillas Busts

Frank Visser

Level 41 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 50,000 ante

PokerStars Ambassador Ramon "RamonColillas" Colillas was the last of his kind remaining in the tournament. He was sitting in the small blind when "FAPTOBblY_BACK" open-shoved for 6,931,294 chips. Colillas was the only one to make the call, with the lesser stack of 5,489,770, and all was now in fate's hands.

Ramon "RamonColillas" Colillas: A♣K♣
FAPTOBblY_BACK: A♠J♦

All was looking well for Colillas on the 6♣5♥Q♠ flop. However, the J♥ turn was dealt and it spelled disaster for the Spanish pro. No king came looking as the 6♠ river completed the hand, and Colillas took a sour exit from the SCOOP Main Event.

On outer tables, three more people took their leave to create the final three tables of eight players.

"Alex Shepel" Doubles Back-to-Back

Frank Visser

Level 40 : Blinds 175,000/350,000, 45,000 ante

"Alex Shepel" was left very short and only had 408,238 chips left in their stack once they put in the big blind that they owed. Awaiting their fate, the action folded to Vicente "vicenfish" Delgado in the small blind, who put them all-in. "Alex Shepel" committed the rest of their chips in an effort to prolong their tournament life.

"Alex Shepel": J♣Q♠
Vicente "vicenfish" Delgado: K♥5♥

The 7♠J♥K♣ flop was look rough for "Alex Shepel", but the Q♦ turn granted them two pair to combat the top pair of Delgado. The 4♥ river remained clean for the player playing from Mexico and they secured their first double-up.

Two hands later, the action folded to them on the button and they went all-in again, this time for a slightly more sizable 1,566,476. The small blind folded, but big blind "jani890311" made the call.

"Alex Shepel": A♠3♠
"jani890311": Q♣3♥

"Alex Shepel" had the dominating hand, and nearly secured their double-up on the 10♦7♠8♠ flop. With only a few outs to fade, they successfully managed to double their chips once more when the 4♣ and J♦ completed the runout.

"Alex Shepel" is now back in the game with a fighting chance.
