Julian Thomas

There was a pre-flop all in for around 4m between Julian Thomas and Thomas Muehloecker on the feature table.

Julian Thomas: {k-Spades}{j-Spades}
Thomas Muehloecker: {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}

The board ran out {8-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{3-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} and Thomas was eliminated. Play is now on the exact money bubble. 20 players are guaranteed at least €147,652 but one player will leave with nothing. Hand-for-hand play will now commence with two minutes being taken off the clock after every hand.

Khangah Big Winner Since Dinner

Level 17 : 150,000/300,000, 50,000 ante

A couple of recent hands have gone the way of Ahadpur Khangah and he has now chipped up quite considerably since dinner.

In one hand he limped from middle position, and was joined to the flop by Christopher Frank and Jack Sinclair from the blinds. Frank bet 500,000 on the {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} flop and Sinclair folded. Khangah then raised to 1.0m and Frank called. The turn was the {2-Diamonds} and Frank check-called 1.5m. The river was the {3-Clubs} and Frank check-folded to a bet of 4.0m from Khangah.

Then, Khangah raised to 700,000 from middle position. Sinclair called in the small blind and Nick Petrangelo called in the big blind. The flop came {k-Clubs}{a-Spades}{q-Hearts}. It checked to Khangah who bet 700,000 and Sinclair was the only caller. The turn {7-Diamonds} was checked by both players. The river was the {7-Spades} and Sinclair bet 1.3m. Khangah raised to 2.7m and Sinclair called.

Khangah showed {8-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for trip sevens and took down the pot.

Hansen Sent Packing

Level 17 : 150,000/300,000, 50,000 ante
Gus Hansen
Gus Hansen

Gus Hansen opened to 800,000 from under the gun and Charlie Carrel called on the button. The two players saw a flop of {a-Clubs}{9-Spades}{8-Hearts} and Hansen checked. Carrel bet 675,000 and Hansen tossed in a raise to 1.5 million. Carrel made the call and the {10-Hearts} landed on the turn.

Hansen thought for a moment and then pushed all in for 6.0 million. "Sorry," Carrel mentioned as he quickly made the call. Carrel instantly turned over {q-Hearts}{j-Spades} for a straight and Hansen tabled {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}, drawing to a chop only. The river was the {k-Spades} and Hansen was eliminated prior to the money.

Schwippert Check-Raises the Flop

Level 17 : 150,000/300,000, 50,000 ante

The action has started to move at a snail's pace, and the tournament directors are ensuring that each table is playing an equal number of hands without having to go hand-for-hand. There have been numerous stoppages on the outer tables as the feature table seems to be moving rather slowly.

When the action finally resumed, Christopher Frank raised to 700,000 from the hijack and Jan Schwippert called from the small blind. The flop came {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{5-Clubs} and Schwippert checked to Frank who bet 600,000. Schwippert check-raised all in for 5.75 million and Frank mucked his cards. Schwippert flashed the {q-Clubs} as he raked in the pot.

Hansen Evokes Memories of 'Rounders'

Level 17 : 150,000/300,000, 50,000 ante

Christoph Vogelsang raised to 675,000 on the button. Gus Hansen defended his big blind.

The flop and turn of {j-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} were checked by both players and the river brought the {j-Hearts}. Hansen checked for a third time and Vogelsang bet 550,000.

Hansen then nonchalantly threw out a slew of T-100,000 value chips and check-raised to 1.8m. Vogelsang thought before folding.

"He checked three times!" said Carrel to Vogelsang in amazement.

"I saw it in Rounders," said Hansen as he took down the pot.

With Antoine Saout's elimination, players were waiting for a hand on the feature table to finish before they redrew around three tables.

In that hand Steffen Sontheimer raised, Martin Kabrhel called and Fedor Holz moved all in for just over 1m chips. Both opponents called.

On the {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} flop Kabrhel pushed Sontheimer out of the pot and the cards were turned over.

Fedor Holz: {a-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Martin Kabrhel: {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

The turn was the {6-Spades} and the river the {7-Spades} and Holz was eliminated.
