Sow Eliminated by Ringe

Level 17 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Kalidou Sow
Kalidou Sow

Kalidou Sow moved all in first to act and Gerald Ringe in the big blind had a decision to make. He asked for a count and the all in was for 294,000 in total, just shy of 12 big blinds. Ringe eventually called and Sow was in need of help.

Kalidou Sow: {Q-Spades}{9-Spades}
Gerald Ringe: {A-Spades}{9-Diamonds}

The {A-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{4-Spades} flop was as bad as it could get for Sow, as he needed running queens or spades to avoid elimination. He was drawing dead on the {J-Clubs} turn and that made the {10-Hearts} river a formality. The remaining nine players will now redraw to the unofficial final table and then take a 20-minute break. Action on the money bubble will recommence at approximately 8.40 p.m. local time.

Nitsche Out Before the Money

Level 16 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Dominik Nitsche
Dominik Nitsche

Dominik Nitsche called a button raise by Thomas Muehloecker and moved all in after the {Q-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{6-Spades} flop, which Muehloecker called.

Nitsche had the {8-Spades}{7-Spades} for a gutshot while Muehloecker turned over {A-Clubs}{6-Clubs} for a pair of sixes. The {3-Hearts} turn and the {10-Spades} river were both blanks and the 888poker ambassador was eliminated. Only 10 players remain, five on each table, and they will combine to the unofficial final table once the next player runs out of chips.

Clark Can't Beat Jacks

Level 16 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Jonathan Clark moved all in from the cutoff and was called by Christopher Kyriacou in the big blind for his last 207,000.

Christopher Kyriacou: {J-Clubs}{J-Hearts}
Jonathan Clark: {A-Spades}{9-Diamonds}

The board came {9-Hearts}{8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{3-Clubs} and Clark was reduced to around 150,000. Shortly after, he pushed again and this time it was Carlos Sanchez Diaz who looked him up.

Jonathan Clark: {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}
Carlos Sanchez Diaz: {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}

Clark once again ended up second-best to pocket jacks on a board of {5-Hearts}{3-Spades}{3-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} and was eliminated in 12th place.

Ringe Doubles Through Donoghue

Level 16 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Gerald Ringe
Gerald Ringe

Gerald Ringe has lost a few chips and was then all in for 239,000 with the {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}, taking a flip against Martin Donoghue and his {K-Clubs}{J-Spades}. The board came {Q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{4-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} and Ringe flopped a set, dodged the straight draw of his opponent and secured the double.

Soon after, Donoghue raised and called the three-bet to 130,000 by Kalidou Sow in the big blind. On the {Q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{3-Hearts} flop, Sow checked and folded to the shove of Donoghue.

Yiqian Song
Yiqian Song

Dominik Nitsche had three-bet all in when facing a raise by Matas Cimbolas from under the gun and Cimbolas asked for a count, then folded. One hand later it was Yiqian Song that moved in and Cimbolas asked for a count once more, now sitting in the big blind. Song was all in for 211,000 and Cimbolas called.

Yiqian Song: {A-Hearts}{4-Hearts}
Matas Cimbolas: {5-Clubs}{5-Spades}

The board came {Q-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{2-Spades}{7-Spades}{3-Clubs} and the start-of-the-day chip leader busted before the money.

Over on the other table, a four-way flop of {9-Spades}{7-Clubs}{6-Clubs} brought a bet of 41,000 by Gerald Ringe and he was called only by Thomas Muehloecker, who then checked the {2-Diamonds} turn. Ringe moved all in for 243,000 and Muehloecker folded.
