Saar Matityahu Eliminated in 22nd Place (€7,200)
Cards went on their backs with Francisco Paez Molina in the big blind at risk for approximately 2,100,000 against Saar Matityahu on the button.
Francisco Paez Molina: A♠A♦
Saar Matityahu: J♣10♣
Paez's aces held on 3♥8♥3♦6♥3♣. Both stacks were counted and he was very slightly covered so he doubled up while Matityahu was left with only 10,000.
Matityahu managed to stay in contention in the next hand thanks to J♠4♥ against Sofian Benaissa's A♦K♠ on 2♠8♠10♦2♦J♣.
A few hands later, he jammed again for 100,000 from early position. Both Benaissa in the big blind and Javier Arquero Sanz in the big blind called. They checked all the way through a board of 4♠A♥9♠Q♥, but Benaissa jammed on the Q♣ river to make Arquero fold.
Saar Matityahu: Q♠7♦
Sofian Benaissa: Q♦4♦
Matityahu revealed trips but Benaissa hit a full house to send him to the rail.
