Daniel Rezaei Eliminated in 22nd Place (€48,700)
Level 25
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Daniel Rezaei raised to 160,000 on the button. David Hochheim tossed in 480,000 in the small blind for a three-bet, which Rezaei clicked back to 880,000.
Hochheim did not deem that enough, however, and put Razaei all-in for 2,815,000. Razaei snap called the five-bet and the cards were tabled.
Daniel Rezaei: Q♠Q♥
David Hochheim: A♠8♣
Hochheim had tried to pull a move but was a big underdog against Rezaei's queens. However, the 5♠9♥A♣ flop brought him top pair to reverse the situation.
Neither the 6♣ turn nor the 2♠ river could save Rezaei, who was sent to the exit after a brutal bad beat.
