Rigu Martin Eliminated in 16th Place (€1,925)
Level 19
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Chadi Akremi opened to 32,000 from under the gun and received a call from Javier Romero in the hijack before Rigu Martin moved all in for 204,000 from the cutoff. Akremi made the call with a covering stack and Romero got out of the way leaving Martin at risk.
Rigu Martin: 2♥2♠
Chadi Akremi: 5♠5♣
Martin pulled way ahead with a set on the A♦2♦8♣ flop but the 3♠ turn gave Akremi some more outs in the form of a gutshot straight draw. The straight came in on the 4♦ river and Martin was sent to the rail in brutal fashion while Akremi surpassed one million chips.
