Rolands Norietis Eliminated in 14th Place (€10,000)
Level 21
: 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante
Rolands Norietis had already been all-in without challenge and then lost around 50,000 in a blind battle gone wrong with Stuart Fox when his fatal blow was delivered. His executioner was Jeff Sarwer who now has 410,000 chips as a result of the Norietis elimination.
Norietis moved all-in for 88,000 and Jeff Sarwer asked for a count from the big blind before calling.

"Only queens," sighed Sarwer.
An ace in the window quickly changed Sarwer's mood however.
Board:
Arvi Vainionkulma owes Sarwer a pint because after that elimination, he has won the Skrill last longer challenge, and will have his tournament entry of €4,250 returned turning his tournament into a freeroll.
