Quoss Done in 11th

Fabian Quoss was grinding a small stack for quite some time, but he just fell to Richard Yong. The German pro moved all in under the gun plus one for just 78,000 chips, and Richard Yong called on the button. John Juanda was in the big blind, and he called as well.

On a {3-Spades}{10-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{5-Spades}{3-Hearts} the hand was checked down, and Quoss showed {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}. He finished third in this hand since Juanda had {K-Spades}{4-Spades}, and ultimately Yong took down the pot with {A-Diamonds}{10-Spades}, and he regained some chips while still being down since the last break.

Seiver Eliminated; Down to Nine

Scott Seiver
Scott Seiver

From the button, Scott Seiver limped in. Mike Watson called in the small blind, then Philipp Gruissem raised to 80,000 from the big blind. Seiver reraised all in for roughly 440,000, Watson folded, and Gruissem quickly called.

Gruissem: {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}
Seiver: {A-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}

The flop came down {J-Spades}{8-Spades}{7-Diamonds} and Seiver added some outs to a straight. The turn gave him for straight outs when the {6-Hearts} landed, but the {2-Diamonds} on the river wasn't what he needed. Seiver was out in 10th place as the final nine players began the process of redrawing to one table.

Sointula Gets Some Life

Jani Sointula
Jani Sointula

Jani Sointula just moved all in for the third time in one orbit, and this time it was from the button. His shove was for 255,000 and Richard Yong folded his small blind. John Juanda sat in the big blind, and he joked that Winfred Yu would really like him to call. Seconds later Juanda did.

Showdown:
Jani Sointula: {Q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
John Juanda: {A-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}

"Nice slowroll," Sointual said as the dealer ran out {Q-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{8-Hearts}.

The Finn doubled up but added that Juanda had done this to him before during a tournament in London. Juanda did not understand Sointula's argument and replied with, "I guess you're the only person I've ever slowrolled. Twice."

Sointula is back in the race and everyone will be looking at Yu now.

Juanda Losing Steam

Action folded to John Juanda on the button and he raised to 48,000. From the big blind, Philipp Gruissem called, and the flop came down {10-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}. Gruissem checked, Juanda bet 60,000 and Gruissem called.

The turn was the {2-Clubs}, and Gruissem led for a small 20,000. Juanda made the call.

The river was the {9-Hearts}, and Gruissem bet 85,000. Juanda folded.

Shortly after that, Juanda raised to 47,000 from the hijack seat, and Tobias Reinkemeier called from the big blind to take a flop of {8-Clubs}{5-Spades}{4-Hearts}. Reinkemeier checked, Juanda bet 68,000, and Reinkemeier called.

The turn was the {K-Diamonds}, and both players checked to see the {J-Hearts} land on the river. Reinkemeier checked, and Juanda checked behind.

Reinkemeier showed the {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts} for a pair of aces, and Juanda mucked.
