Kelvin Kerber Eliminated in 11th Place ($415,000)
Level 23
: Blinds 75,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
Kelvin Kerber put in his last 575,500 from the button. Eelis Parssinen three-bet jammed for 3,800,000 from the small blind and Klemens Roiter snap-called for his last 1,775,000 from the big blind to set up a three-way all-in.
Kelvin Kerber: K♥9♣
Klemens Roiter: A♦K♠
Eelis Parssinen: Q♠10♠
Roiter had Kerber dominated and was ahead of Parssinen, but the latter had plenty of equity with his suited Broadway holding.
Roiter found an ace on the A♠7♣6♠ flop to stay ahead, while Parssinen had a flush draw. Kerber had little hope, needing to go runner-runner.
The 8♦ turn gave Kerber a slim chance of survival, but Roiter claimed the 4,300,000 pot after the 6♣ river gave him aces-up and the checkmark.
