In the next hand, Rinkevicius made it 175,000 again but couldn't find any action.

Serdar Demircan Eliminated in 6th Place (€13,450)

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Serdar Demircan
Serdar Demircan

Serdar Demircan shipped all in for 665,000 in the cutoff and Alan Carr snap-called from the big blind. Just as the players were getting ready to go on break, there was another all in and Demircan was at risk.

Alan Carr: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Serdar Demircan: {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}

Demircan was up against it again as he looked for one of the remaining aces. The flop of {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}{6-Clubs} left Carr in the lead with his pocket queens. The {7-Diamonds} on the turn changed nothing and the {10-Spades} on the river brought an end to Demircan's tournament.

Henri Jantunen
Henri Jantunen

Christopher Heidelbacher opened to 110,000 in the hijack and Henri Jantunen defended from the big blind. The flop fell {q-Spades}{4-Spades}{2-Clubs} and Jantunen shoved all in for his last 235,000 chips. Heidelbacher asked for the count before making the call.

Christopher Heidelbacher: {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}
Henri Jantunen: {6-Hearts}{2-Hearts}

Jantunen flopped bottom pair but was in dire straits against the pocket nines of Heidelbacher. The {10-Spades} on the turn narrowed Jantunen's outs and the {8-Spades} on the river gave Heidelbacher a flush to eliminate Jantunen in seventh place.

Heidelbacher Takes a Small One

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

[Removed:402] opened to 110,000 in the cutoff and Christopher Heidelbacher called on the button. The flop came {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}{5-Spades} and both players checked to the {7-Spades} on the turn.

Rinkevicius checked again and Heidelbacher tossed in a bet of 155,000. Rinkevicius gave it some thought but let his hand go, conceding the pot to Heidelbacher.

The players have seemed to tighten up quite a bit with Henri Jantunen as the clear short stack at around eight big blinds.
