Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Jari Hurri
Jari Hurri

Down to just 79,000, Jari Hurri was all in from early position and Paul Jux Holderness called on the button.

Jari Hurri: {A-Clubs}{J-Spades}
Paul Jux Holderness: {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}

The Brit flopped top set on {10-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}, leaving Hurri to four nines in the deck. Neither the {A-Diamonds} turn nor the {4-Clubs} river provided any help and Hurri was eliminated in 23rd place for €3,350.

Elias Vaaraniemi Eliminated in 24th Place (€3,000)

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Elias Vaaraniemi
Elias Vaaraniemi

A big stack not long ago, Elias Vaaraniemi has suddenly been eliminated in 24th place after running horrendously since the redraw took place.

In yet another all in showdown, he had Sean Foley on the ropes with {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} versus {A-Hearts}{10-Clubs} and even turned top pair only for Foley to river a straight in unlikely fashion on the board {9-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{J-Hearts}.

Then, Vaaraniemi was all ion with {7-Spades}{7-Clubs} soon after and Patrick Clarke took the flip with {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}. This time, the board came {Q-Spades}{10-Clubs}{2-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} and the king on the river spelled the end for Vaaraniemi.

Back-to-Back Double Ups

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Over on the outer tables, Michael Brock four-bet all in with the {K-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} and had a flip against the {J-Hearts}{J-Spades} of Elias Vaaraniemi. The board came {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{A-Spades} and the stack of Vaaraniemi was cut in half.

The next hand, Brock got it in again and this time faced Pierre de Montesquiou, who was all in for 331,000 with the {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}. Brock was dominated with {A-Spades}{10-Spades} and the {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs} board changed nothing whatsoever, Brock lost the chips he had just gained right away.

Redraw With 24 and Delayed Updates

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

After three eliminations on the feature table with details to come once they happen on the stream time with half an hour delay, the field has been reduced to the last 24 and they now redraw to the final three tables. As of now, all PokerNews updates will take place according to the live stream time and the remaining players headed into a 15-minute break.

Kron Jams Into Stokes

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Julien Kron in the small blind and Joseph Ellis in the big blind called a raise by Gary Stokes in the under-the-gun position and checked through a flop of {A-Spades}{8-Spades}{2-Diamonds}, as did initial raiser Stokes. Kron then bet the {9-Diamonds}n turn for 57,000 to force a fold from Ellis, but Stokes had other plans and raised to 130,000. Kron moved all in and Stokes folded reluctantly.
