Andreas Karasz Eliminated in 12th Place (€2,190)
Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Jan Bendik raised to 75,000 from the hijack before Andreas Karasz jammed for 550,000 from the cutoff. When it folded back around to Bendik, he called to try and eliminate Karasz.
Andreas Karasz: K♥Q♠ 
Jan Bendik: A♦K♣
Karasz was dominated by Bendik's big slick and needed a queen to keep his chances of making the final table alive.
A favorable flop of Q♣2♦4♠ came down for Karasz, putting him in the lead with a pair of queens. A 9♥ on the turn meant only an ace on the river would send Karasz home. The dealer burned a card, then completed the board with the A♣, giving Bendik a pair of aces.
Karasz was out in 12th, and Bendik was up to almost three million.
