Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

After taking that hit versus Georgios Tsouloftas, Matjaz Vogrinec jammed from the cutoff for 700,000, and Konstantinos Nanos took a single peek at his cards in the big blind before immediately putting in calling chips.

Matjaz Vogrinec: K♦10♥ All in
Konstantinos Nanos: K♣Q♦

Vogrinec was crushed, but he flopped well enough on J♦9♥2♦. picking up a gutshot and backdoor flush draw.

It's the hope that kills you, though, and he bricked the 6♠ turn and 9♦ river, to bring us down to two tables.

Elia Salerno raised to 170,000 in the cutoff and then folded when Christian Schneider pushed all in from the next seat.
