Michal Schuh Eliminated in 2nd Place (€105,000)
Level 35
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Michal Schuh raised to 600,000 from the button, and snap-called a jam from Lukas Timko, who had Schuh covered.
Michal Schuh: A♣K♦
Lukas Timko: 5♣5♦
It was a huge flip for the title, and Schuh missed the Q♣J♦6♠ flop, although he picked up a gutshot.
Schuh started calling for an ace, but the 3♥ turn was also a brick.
With the title on the line, Timko needed to avoid an ace, king, or ten on the river, and the 7♦ hit to send Timko the pot, the title, and his first bracelet, along with a huge new career-best score.
Timko pumped his fist quietly and shared a warm embrace with his fellow countryman, Schuh, who was narrowly denied his second bracelet after a great run.
