Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Laszlo-Istvan Salamon
Laszlo-Istvan Salamon

Laszlo-Istvan Salamon moved all in for the last 65,000 and Jai Saha min-clicked to 110,000 with the {a-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}. Tom-Aksel Bedell then shoved for 530,000 and Saha reluctantly folded.

Laszlo-Istvan Salamon: {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}
Tom-Aksel Bedell: {k-Hearts}{6-Hearts}

The board came {8-Spades}{6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{4-Clubs} and Salamon hit the rail in 11th place for €6,500. Despite winning the pot, Bedell remains the shortest stack on the feature table. With now 10 players remaining, both five-handed tables will play hand-for-hand on the unofficial final table bubble.

De Jong Leaves Corominas Short

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Cornelis de Jong defended out of the small blind against Ferran Corominas and check-called two streets. On the {k-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{q-Hearts} it was for 260,000 and the {7-Hearts} river provided a possible four card flush. De Jong checked once more and Corominas checked back to get shown the {k-Spades}{8-Hearts} for a flush with the eight by de Jong.

The Spaniard sighed and sent his cards into the muck to drop to just 15 big blinds.
