Daniel Bang-Ortmann Eliminated in 2nd Place (€99,000)
Daniel Bang-Ortmann limped the button and called a raise to 900,000 by Sascha Wilhelm, which led them to the A♥Q♣3♠ flop. Wilhelm continued for 600,000, and Bang-Ortmann announced pot, piling forward his entire stack. Wilhelm obliged within a split second, and the cards were on their backs again.
Daniel Bang-Ortmann: A♠8♦4♠2♠
Sascha Wilhelm: A♦Q♥Q♠10♦
Wilhelm's lead with a set of queens was rather firm, though Bang-Ortmann had a gutshot wheel draw and back door spades. The J♦ turn changed nothing, and the J♠ river paired the board, improving Wilhelm to a full house to secure the final knockout in style.
The grind of Bang-Ortmann ended in second place for €99,000, and he was denied his first WSOP bracelet, while Wilhelm doubled his tally in as many years.
