Szabolcs Kukucska Eliminated in 20th Place (€43,000)
Level 25
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
From under the gun, Szabolcs Kukucska started out with a limp before Jonas Lauck raised it to 240,000 from middle position. When it folded back to Kukucska, he limp-jammed for 1,200,000, and Lauck called.
Szabolcs Kukucska: A♦Q♣
Jonas Lauck: 10♠10♣
Kukucska needed to connect with the board to beat the pocket tens of Lauck and keep his seat in the Main Event.
Lauck's pair stayed ahead through the 9♥3♥8♥ flop and 6♥ turn. Another heart would result in a chop, but the K♠ fell instead, and Kukucska headed to the exit in 20th position.
