Fabian Niederreiter: J♠8♠ 
Stefan Fabian: A♠7♠
Leon Sturm: 10♦10♣
Sturm was ahead with two pair but had to dodge both spades and an ace. The 2♣ turn was a safe card, and so was the 5♥ to send both Fabian Niederreiter and Stefan Fabian out of the tournament.

Leon Sturm opened 1,100 in the hijack and Daniel Kyosev three-bet 4,500 from the big blind. Sturm made the call.
When the 8♠4♥2♣ flop hit the felt, Kyosev continued for 6,000 and Sturm stuck around with a call.
The Q♦ hit the turn, and Kyosev fired 6,500. Sturm called again.
The dealer rolled the 7♥ on the river and Kyosev slowed down with a check. Sturm announced all-in, putting Kyosev in the tank. After asking for a count and the dealer letting him know it was 19,100, he eventually surrendered the pot.
Sturm tabled the A♣, which triggered a response from Kyosev. "I guess the other one is a queen then." He then continued, "One card isn't enough. I can handle none or both, but not one."
