Maurizio Melara
Maurizio Melara

Maurizio Melara had previously folded to a flop bet by Martin Kabrhel during which the latter predicted he would bust the Italian. As it turned out, that was just delayed as Melara got it in soon after against none other than Kabrhel.

Maurizio Melara: {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}
Martin Kabrhel: {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}{6-Clubs}{5-Spades}

The {8-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{3-Spades}{3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} board kept Kabrhel's aces in the lead as he made a full house. Melara's run ends in 18th place and he collects €1,906 for the efforts.

Blaz Zerjav Eliminated in 22nd Place (€1,906)

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Blaz Zerjav
Blaz Zerjav

Blaz Zerjav min-raised to 40,000 and Tobias Peters three-bet to 130,000. Zerjav potted to 415,000 and Peters eventually called as they headed to the {q-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} flop. The shove by Zerjav for around 900,000 followed and Peters beat him into the pot.

Blaz Zerjav: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}
Tobias Peters: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}

Even before he could see the cards of Peters, the Slovenian was depleted and knew he needed a lot of help.

It was all over after the {k-Spades} turn and the {3-Spades} river became a mere formality.

"Merry Christmas and happy new year," one player at the table remarked while Peters was busy stacking up a ton of chips.

Magott From Hero to Zero

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Krzysztof Magott
Krzysztof Magott

Ken Beckers raised four-bet potted against the Taras Slabyk and Krzysztof Magott. The latter had already made it 160,000 to go when Beckers essentially pushed all-in. Slabyk went out of the way and Magott then sigh-jammed.

Ken Beckers: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{2-Clubs}
Krzysztof Magott: {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{2-Hearts}

"Too much gamble, maybe I hit" Magott said when the cards were turned over. He turned a set on {q-Clubs}{9-Spades}{6-Spades}{j-Spades} but the {7-Clubs} river kept Beckers in the lead with the nut flush. The stacks were counted and Magott's 618,000 were covered by a small margin.
