Level 6 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Fabian Gumz raised to 2,200 in the hijack before Pascal Pflock three-bet to 5,500 on the button. Gumz then moved all in and Pflock called off his last 30,500.

Pascal Pflock: A♣A♥
Fabian Gumz: A♠K♥

The board ran out J♣3♣6♣9♥Q♣ and Pflock finished with the nut flush to double up.

"I get aces, lose. I get ace-king the next hand and lose to aces. So stupid. I'm lucky you only had 30K," Gumz said with a smile. Orpen Kisacikoglu is also at this table.

At another table, Leon Sturm was the beneficiary of a massive cooler to climb up amongst the chip leaders. "300K pot. Nut flush versus straight flush. The nut flush had to be three perfect hearts," tablemate Jonathan Humphrey said.

Level 5 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Jonathan Humphrey raised to 1,800 under the gun before Catrin Schmidt moved all in for 17,000 next to act. Jiri Heidtke called on the button while Humphrey got out of the way, saying he had ace-ten.

Catrin Schmidt: A♥K♦
Jiri Heidtke: A♦A♣

Schmidt had run right into Heidtke's aces with her tournament on the line and got some hope as the flop brought K♣6♠7♦. She failed to improve on the 9♠ turn, while the 9♥ river sealed her elimination.

"Unlucky," she said on her way to the exit.

Nacho Barbero bet 6,500 from early position on a board of 2♠4♠10♥8♦ and Lukas Zaskodny raised to 20,000 in the cutoff.

Barbero called to the 4♣ river, where Zaskodny bet 36,500. Barbero leaned back and stretched his arms around his chair as he went into the tank for a few minutes.

"Jack-nine of spades," he wondered before eventually putting in the chips to call. Zaskodny showed him 2♥2♣ for a full house and Barbero mucked.
