George McDonald Bubbles the Unibet Open Malta Main Event

Level 15 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
George McDonald
George McDonald

At the feature table, George McDonald was all in preflop for 120,000 after Daniel Jacobsen had opened. Jacobson confirmed how much McDonald played before calling.

George McDonald: {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs}
Daniel Jacobsen: {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}

The {2-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{8-Clubs} flop was safe for McDonald, but all that changed with the {A-Hearts} on the turn. The {5-Clubs} on the river wasn't one of the remaining jacks and McDonald became the final player to bow out. He didn't leave empty-handed, as Unibet Open's Kasia had a consolation prize in the form of bubbles for the Scot.

Kevin "Papaplatte" Teller Misses Out of the Money

Level 14 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Kevin "Papaplatte" Teller
Kevin "Papaplatte" Teller

A sad Kevin "Papaplatte" Teller made his way off the feature table after nearly missing out on the money. Jan Eckert raised to 10,000 from the cutoff and Teller three-bet all in for 74,000 on the button. Mats Karlsson tank-folded pocket nines in the small blind but Eckert called directly.

Kevin "Papaplatte" Teller: {5-Clubs}{5-Hearts}
Jan Eckert: {K-Hearts}{K-Spades}

The {6-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} flop was devastating for was all in with pocket fives against pocket kings and after the {Q-Clubs} his Main Event run was over in 42nd place, making the {6-Spades} river a formality.

A short-stacked Aurelie Quelian busted shortly after to get the field on the bubble.
