Ognjen Sekularac Eliminated in 11th Place (€36,000)
Francisco Notaro raised to 200,000 - that's five big blinds - in the cutoff, only to face a reraise to 519,000 from Ognjen Sekularac in the small blind. Notaro flat-called.
Flop:
Sekularac announced all in, and Notaro announced call. Simple as that. It took a while to assess their relative stacks, but eventually it was found that Notaro was the player at risk, Sekularac covering him by a mere 5,000.

It was a huge double up for Notaro - to around 2.7 million. Sekularac meanwhile was left with just 5,000. "I'm not done yet," he told the table.
But 4,000 of his 5,000 went in as the ante next hand. He tossed in his remaining 1,000 blind and out of turn from the button. Notaro raised to 200,000 and everyone else got out of the way, and once again they were on their backs.

Thus on the last hand of the level, we were down to 10.
