Zdenek Zizka Eliminated in 3rd Place (€142,000)
Level 23
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Zdenek Zizka opened the action with a limp out of the small blind, and Shaun Deeb raised to 625,000 in the big blind. The limp-shove by Zizka followed, and Deeb instantly called with the marginally covering stack of just over 20 big blinds.
Zdenek Zizka: 6♠6♣
Shaun Deeb: A♣K♠
Deeb gained more equity with the Q♣10♣3♣ flop, which gave him the superior flush draw and a gutshot straight draw. Nothing changed on the 2♥ turn, but the J♠ on the river brought Broadway for Deeb.
They counted the stacks, and Zizka, who was covered by less than one big blind, shook hands with Deeb and bowed out in third place for €142,000.
There will now be a short break before the heads-up match for the WSOP Europe gold bracelet.
