Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Action folded to Yuet Wong in the small blind who moved all in for 335,000. Thomas Eychenne in the big blind tanked for a few minutes and eventually called to put him at risk.

Yuet Wong: 8♦8♥ All in
Thomas Eychenne: K♦10♣

The K♠2♥5♠ flop gave Eychenne the lead with a pair of kings, while the rest of the board came Q♥4♥ and Wong was sent to the rail.

Victor Dota and Yann Abitbol were also eliminated shortly after returning from break, while Giuseppe Bellusci and Eden Anzio quickly followed Wong to the rail. A count of the players showed 190 remaining, meaning Abitbol finished on the bubble while Wong, Bellusci, and Anzio split a min-cash of €800.

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

After the bubble popped, the usual flurry of all-ins saw Apostolos Chatzopoulos commit his stack of around 400,000 to the pot, and Cosmin Nica put him at risk.

Apostolos Chatzopoulos: J♦J♠ All in
Cosmin Nica: A♦K♥

Chatzopoulos fell behind on the 3♥6♠K♦ flop and Nica improved to two pair after the A♠ fell on the turn. However, Chatzopoulos's survival instincts kicked in when he found the J♥ on the river, which gave him a set and kept him alive.

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Thomas Eychenne started the action with a raise to 40,000 from the hijack, but Yann Lormel quickly pushed all in from the cutoff for 220,000. After some contemplation, Eychenne made the call, and they went to a showdown.

Lormel revealed A♣J♠, while Eychenne showed 9♥8♥. With Lormel currently in the lead, Eychenne needed some help from the board. The flop of 7♥9♦10♥ was a good start for him, giving him a pair of nines along with a flush draw.

Now it was Lormel’s turn to seek assistance from the board, but the 10♣ on the turn didn’t change anything for him.

However, the river brought the J♣, giving Lormel a better pair. But Eychenne had struck gold, hitting a straight, and he sent Lormel to the rail.
