Miguel Angel Alvarez Eliminated in 9th Place (€4,990)
Level 26
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Or Nezer had been active since the cards got in the air at the final table, winning three of the first four hands.
When it folded to Nezer in the small blind, he jammed to put Miguel Angel Alvarez all in. Alvarez had around 700,000 remaining in his stack and opted to make the call, putting himself at risk.
Miguel Angel Alvarez :K♠9♣
Or Nezer: A♠7♠
Nezer was ahead with ace-high against the two live cards of Alvarez.
Nezer picked up a straight draw on the 5♦4♣3♦ flop and managed to improve to a wheel when the 2♦ landed on the turn. Alvarez could only hope to chop the pot, but it wasn't to be as the J♠ completed the board.
Nezer moved up to almost four million, while Alvarez was the first elimination of the final table.
