Manuel Sanchez Morito Eliminated in 18th Place (€5,200)

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Manuel Sanchez Morito
Manuel Sanchez Morito

Alexander Lakhov min-raised and Manuel Sanchez Morito moved all in for 92,000 out of the small blind. Fellow short stack Mathias Kürschner moved all in out of the big blind as well and Lakhov quickly folded, otherwise he said he would have snap-called also.

Kürschner: {K-Spades} {K-Clubs}
Sanchez Morito: {9-Hearts} {9-Diamonds}

The Spaniard was in desperate need of some help, but the {5-Clubs} {K-Diamonds} {4-Spades} flop was the exact opposite. It was all over on the {4-Clubs} turn and the meaningless {7-Hearts} river completed the board.

Alex Goulder raised to 18,000 and Simeon Naydenov three-bet to 45,000. Koray Aldemir moved all in for 234,000 from the hijack and Mathias Kürschner tank-folded in the small blind. Goulder called and that enforced a fold from Naydenov.

Goulder: {A-Clubs} {K-Clubs}
Aldemir: {A-Diamonds} {J-Hearts}

There was no help on the {5-Spades} {2-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} {8-Spades} {4-Diamonds} and that sent the Austrian to the rail in 17th place for €5,200.

Sergej Barbarez Eliminated in 16th Place (€5,200)

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Sergej Barbarez
Sergej Barbarez

Zo Karim raised to 19,000 and received three calls from Artur Voskanyan, Andy Seth and Sergej Barbarez in the big blind. On the {8-Spades} {6-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} flop, Barbarez check-raised all in for 350,000 and Karim looked him up after he made a continuation bet of 34,000 and Voskanyan called that bet. Seth folded and so did Voskanyan after the shove of Barbarez.

Karim: {K-Spades} {K-Clubs}
Barbarez: {J-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds}

The {6-Spades} on the turn gave Barbarez a few outs less and the German was sent to the rail in 16th place when the {2-Clubs} river completed the board. He takes home €5,200 and the next payout step is already €6,100.

Suited Connectors work for Adolfsson

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

The preflop action is unknown but Niclas Adolfsson was the initial raiser from the hijack and Zo Karim stayed in the hand in the cutoff. On the {3-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} {7-Spades} flop, Adolfsson continued for 34,000 and was called before both players checked down the {4-Hearts} turn and the {2-Clubs} river. The Swede showed {7-Clubs} {6-Clubs} and that won the pot.

Oliver Heidel Eliminated in 15th Place (€6,100)

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Oliver Heidel
Oliver Heidel

Zo Karim raised and Oliver Heidel three-bet to 54,000 out of the small blind. Karim moved all in with the superior stack and the German called off for almost 400,000 in chips. He had the better hand preflop in {10-Hearts} {10-Spades} but Karim improved with {9-Diamonds} {9-Spades} on a board of {9-Hearts} {8-Clubs} {2-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} {A-Spades}. Heidel takes home €6,100 and a bad beat story.

Lakhov has the Ace

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Chris Hunichen raised to 18,000 and Alexander Lakhov clicked it back to 45,000 from one seat over. Hunichen four-bet to 102,000 and the Russian called. Both checked the {A-Diamonds} {9-Spades} {4-Clubs} flop and the {8-Clubs} turn before Hunichen took a stab at the pot with a bet of 64,000 and Lakhov called.

"You got an ace?" Hunichen asked and then tabled {K-Clubs} {K-Diamonds}. A few seconds later was left shaking his head as Lakhov indeed held {A-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} and won the pot.

Perfect Timing for Piquette

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Niclas Adolfsson raised to 21,000 from the cutoff and Zo Karim three-bet to 70,000 out of the button-seat. Jean-Philippe Piquette moved all in for 119,000 out of the big blind and Adolfsson asked for the count before moving all in himself. Karim got out of the way and Piquette tabled the {K-Clubs} {K-Spades}. Adolfsson only had {J-Clubs} {J-Hearts} and couldn't dash out the final blow on a board of {6-Hearts} {5-Hearts} {7-Spades} {9-Spades} {2-Diamonds}.

Karim Pressurizes Voskanyan

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Zo Karim opened and Artur Voskanyan three-bet to 60,000 from one seat over out of middle position. The action folded back to Karim and he four-bet to 210,000, committing himself to a possible shove of the Russian. Voskanyan had 300,000 behind after his three-bet and was sent into the think tank. He eventually mucked his cards and Karim increased his lead.

Artur Voskanyan Eliminated in 14th Place (€6,100)

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Artur Voskanyan
Artur Voskanyan

Artur Voskanyan raised to 24,000 from under the gun and was called by Alex Goulder on the button and Zo Karim in the big blind. On the {9-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} {4-Spades} flop, Karim bet 32,000 and Voskanyan raised to 85,000. Goulder clicked it to 140,000 and Karim folded. Voskanyan now shoved all in and was snap-called by the Brit.

Voskanyan: {K-Diamonds} {K-Hearts}
Goulder: {4-Clubs} {4-Diamonds}

Two outs remained for the tournament director from Russia, but it wasn't meant to be as the {Q-Hearts} turn and the {3-Clubs} river completed the board. Voskanyan takes home €6,100 and Goulder is now the new chip leader.
