On the river, K♥ after a short moment Reichenstein bet 200,000 and Reknar again took his time to make the call.

More Players Fall as the Bubble Looms

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

"Fabian I have a pair and not a small pair!"

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

"How can I fold a pair for two bigs Fabian?" Johan Guilbert exclaimed as he was faced with a decision with a bet from Fabian Niederreiter in front of him from the small blind.

"I have a pair Fabian I swear, I didn't study the spot" Said Guilbert.

Johan Guilbert slammed his remaining 30,000 in the middle and the players revealed their hands.

Johan Guilbert:8♥8♠All in
Fabian Niederreiter: J♥10♦

A board of A♦3♦10♣ was no help for Guilbert, needing an eight or running straight cards.

The turn of 6♠ changed nothing with Niederreiter's pair of tens still in the lead.

A river 9♣ was close but not enough for Guilbert as he shook hands and said "GGs" to his tablemates and was eliminated from teh tournament.

With two players seeing a board of 9♥5♠4♠3♥K♦ and around 120,000 in the middle, Christian Roberts bet 120,000 from out of position and Martin Mathis, seated directly to his left, shoved for slightly more. Roberts called with a covering stack to put him at risk.

Roberts had top pair with A♣K♠ but Mathis had him beat with 7♥6♥ for the nut-straight to secure a massive double up.

Roberts was left with around 40,000 following the hand and busted out shortly after.
