Vagke Sagkinian Eliminated in 9th Place (€19,782)

Kai Cocklin

Level 35 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Vagke Sagkinian raised from early position to 850,000 and Sarah Link three-bet shoved from the big blind. Sagkinian had 4,425,000 total in his stack and took around a minute before he called.

Vagke Sagkinian: A♥K♣ All in
Sarah Link: A♠A♣

Link had the bullets, and Sagkinian's hand wasn't the kind needed to crack aces. The situation for Sagkinian went from bad to worse on the 6♦6♣2♦ flop as only runner kings or sixes could save him. A 10♥8♠ runout didn't provide that miracle, and Sagkinian was out in ninth.

Level 35 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Michal Szczeblewski raised to 600,000 under the gun before Cheng Zhao moved all in for 700,000 in the cutoff. Bogdan Roman then reshoved for 2,700,000 on the button, and Szczeblewski used two time banks before folding K♣J♦.

Cheng Zhao: 10♦10♣ All in
Bogdan Roman: K♠K♦

Zhao had run into Roman's kings, and the A♥9♥2♦J♣5♦ board offered no help as he was sent to the rail in 10th place.

The remaining nine players are taking a short break while they draw for seats at the final table.

Tudor Zapsa made it 600,000 to go on the button and Martin Vittek called from the big blind.

The flop came out 3♦4♣7♠ and after Vittek checked, Zapsa bet 450,000. Vittek then min-raised to 900,000, which Zapsa called.

Vittek slowed down with a check on the K♦ turn and then folded when Zapsa bet 900,000.

Level 34 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Robert Dascalescu moved all in for 900,000 in the cutoff and Tudor Zapsa called in the big blind.

Robert Dascalescu: K♥4♥ All in
Tudor Zapsa: A♥K♦

Dascalescu flung his arms in the air in frustration after Zapsa showed his hand. The A♣6♣3♠ flop gave Zapsa top pair, while the rest of the board came 10♠6♠ ]and Dascalescu was sent to the rail.

A round of cheers accompanied the announcement of "seat open" as the remaining 10 players have locked up a €10,350 ticket into the Main Event.
