Ankala and Dedusha Eliminated; Sklenicka Chops to Stay Alive

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Artan Dedusha

After Tommy Ankala's elimination, it was all-in pre-flop between Artan Dedusha and Zoltan Bartus.

Zoltan Bartus: {a-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Artan Dedusha: {a-}{j-}

Dedusha looked in good shape after the {8-Clubs}{7-Spades}{a-Spades} flop, but the {4-Clubs} turn and 5c] river gave Bartus a flush and sent Dedusha to the rail.

Meanwhile, at the other table, Michael Sklenicka was all in against Kenny Hallaert.

Michael Sklenicka: {q-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Kenny Hallaert: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

The board ran out {4-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{4-Spades}{9-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} giving a full house to both players, but Hallaert failed to realise that, waggling his {a-Hearts} for the dealer before realising it was a split pot.

Hallaert, a part-time tournament director, realised his mistake and released his cards and apologised to the table.
