Final Day 3 Elimination: Vasily Fursov

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Vasily Fursov was the last player to be eliminated in the €35,000 payout bracket bringing Day 3 to an abrupt close. His pre-exit hand involved two players giving the full Dwell over his preflop mid-position raise to 43,000. Dag Palovic passed but button Alessandro Limblici (having had the clock called on him) moved all in for 212,000.

Fursov called and found his {A-Diamonds}{J-Spades} in big trouble against Limblici's {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}. The board ({6-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}) offered flush possibilities but removed them with the river and he was down to <60,000.

The very next hand, in those chips went under the gun with {10-Clubs}{8-Clubs} - it was Alessandro Limblici who found the {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs} behind him and took the last of his bowl of rice after a {4-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{9-Spades} board.
