Benzerfa Youssef Eliminated in 24th Place (€11,494)

Kezem Kizek came in raising to 21,000, and Benzerfa Youssef moved all in for 98,000 further down the line. When it came back to Kizek, he considered for two or three minutes before announcing the call to put his opponent at risk of elimination.

Showdown
Kizek: {J-Clubs} {J-Hearts}
Youssef: {K-Spades} {10-Clubs}

The flop was a big sweat as the dealer spread out three cards one at a time: {8-Spades}... {Q-Spades}... {5-Spades}... The flush draw would fail to materialize for Youssef, though, as the turn and river bricked off with the {Q-Diamonds} and {7-Clubs} respectively.

With that, a disappointed Benzerfa Youssef made a quick stop at the payout desk to collect more than €11,000, then headed slowly out the door.
