Hruby the Gem Eliminates Andrew Teng
Team Pokerstars Pro Martin Hruby has increased his stack size to ~257,000 and as far as we can tell has taken the chip lead on Day 2.
We joined the action with a huge pile of chips scattered all over the Pokerstars logo in the centre of the table and a tower of yellow chips in front of Hruby. The decision - and one for his tournament life - was over to Mikahil Smirnov. The board was and Smirnov eventually folded.
No sooner had Hruby welcomed his new little cherubs into his chip household when Andrew Teng opened from middle position with a 2,800 raise. Hruby made the three-bet from the Big Blind 11,200 for Teng to keep playing. Teng fiddled around with his chips for a while before dumping most of his stack over the line as a four-bet and Hruby shoved all in. Teng called but he didn't look confident.

The flop gave Teng a glimmer of hope but he already had his jacket on and was leaving the table as the board ran out . Teng marched out into the sunshine of Vienna and Hruby marched to the top of our Leaderboard.
