Two Eliminations for Bjorkheim
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Tage Almark defended his big blind against a buttopn raise by Anders Bjorkheim and checked the A♦9♣8♠ flop. Bjorkheim bet 40,000 and then called the shove by his fellow countryman.
Tage Almark: 7♣6♣ 
Anders Bjorkheim: 9♦8♦
The 6♥ turn and 4♦ river were blanks and Almark was eliminated in 26th place.
Two hands later, Eyjolfur Halldorsson was forced all-in from the big blind and had not shown up yet. Bjorkheim raised and the last chips of Halldorsson vanished, too. Half a minute after his elimination was sealed, the Icelander appeared "just in time" to collect his payout slip. Both players received €1,550 for their efforts.
