Fewer Than 100 Players Remain
Level 18
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
The tournament clock ticked to just 98 players remaining and the last two contenders to bust were Adrian Strobel and Zaki Hamani. The latter never recovered from losing a big pot to Salih Atac and then found his master in Alexander Tkatschew.
Hamani put his hopes on K♦8♦ and was up against A♦10♦. The 10♠9♦3♦ flop had given them a flush draw before the 3♣ turn and 8♣ river sealed his fate.
Hamani was visibly upset and jumped out of his chair, tossing over a glass in the process before storming out of the tournament area.
