Maxime Taldir

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Hugo Heiter in early position was all-in and at risk for approximately 350,000 against Koffi Eklu on the button.

Koffi Eklu: 9♦9♠ All in
Hugo Heiter: 9♣9♥

This hand was supposed to be a split pot, but that is not what happened with a board of 8♣2♦3♦8♦A♦ which gave an unexpected flush to Eklu and ended Heiter's tournament in 73rd place for €3,450

Sitbon Takes from Merlin

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Pierre Merlin raised to 40,000 friom under the gun. Julien Sitbon in the hijack went into the tank and called.

The dealer fanned a flop of 6♣J♦5♥ where Merlin checked, so Sitbon bet 40,000 and Merlin made the call.

Both players checked the 3♣ turn leading to the A♣ river where Merlin checked again. Sitbon then asked for 135,000 and Merlin decided to call. However he had to sent his cards into the muck after Sitbon flipped over A♠2♠ for top pair.
