Sigurjonsson Eliminated

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante
Gudmundur Sigurjonsson
Gudmundur Sigurjonsson

Gudmundur Sigurjonsson, on the button, bet 5,400 on the {a-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} flop after being checked to by Andreas Kuecuekkaplan and Stephan Kohlstetter. Only Kuecuekkaplan called.

Kuecuekkaplan checked again and Sigurjonsson, the shorter stack of the two, moved all-in for 15,200 on the {9-Clubs} turn. Kuecuekkaplan seemed to have a decision on his hands and thought for a minute before calling.

Gudmundur Sigurjonsson: {j-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}
Andreas Kuecuekkaplan: {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}

"What were you waiting for? Slowroll?" asked the at-risk player to which there was a mumbled reply.

The {3-Diamonds} river sealed the check mark for Kuecuekkaplan to climb up the chip counts.

Due to new government regulations, King's Resort has had to adjust the tournament schedule.

All WSOPE tournaments are still on the schedule but the starting time of those events have changed to accommodate the new rules:

The most important one, for now, is that The Colossus now only has one starting flight per day with a cap of 1,000 which will start at 10 a.m on Friday, November 26, and Saturday, November 27

For further details on the tournament schedule, please check the King's Resort website.

King's Resort will remain open and fully operational, the borders are still open, and all their staff is fully vaccinated.
