Urbanovich Doubles, Back to Dead Even

Level 25 : 150,000/300,000, 40,000 ante

Sylvain Loosli limped in from the button and Dzmitry Urbanovich shoved for 6,070,000 (20 big blinds). Loosli thought about it for a bit and then called.

Sylvain Loosli: {K-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Dzmitry Urbanovich: {3-Hearts}{3-Clubs}

The flop came {J-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}. The {8-Spades} hit the turn and Urbanovich let out some Polish words we can only imagine meant 'Oh no!'

The river {3-Spades} was more than save for Urbanovich though, giving him the full house and full double up. He's still behind, but it's now really close.

Christoph Vogelsang Eliminated in 3rd Place (€551,485)

Level 25 : 120,000/240,000, 30,000 ante

Christoph Vogelsang

While still stacking his new found chips from the last hand, Sylvain Loosli opened to 525,000 from the button. Dzmitry Urbanovich quickly folded and Vogelsang, who had 3.5 million behind after investing his big blind, made the call.

The flop came {J-Spades}{A-Hearts}{10-Hearts} and Vogelsang checked. Loosli made a bet of 650,000, while still busy handling his chips as Vogelsang contemplated what to do next. Vogelsang eventually announced all in and Loosli was quick to call.

Christoph Vogelsang: {Q-Clubs}{8-Spades}
Sylvain Loosli: {A-Clubs}{8-Spades}

Vogelsang had a gutshot but would fail to hit it. The {3-Diamonds} on the turn and the {8-Diamonds} on the river were effectively blanks and Vogelsang hit the rail in third place. He picked up €551,485, Urbanovich and Loosli are guaranteed €841,500 at this time but are going to battle for that €1,224,000 first place prize. Loosli has the chip lead for the first time this tournament.

Huge One For Loosli

Level 25 : 120,000/240,000, 30,000 ante

Christoph Vogelsang raised from the button to 510,000 and Sylvain Loosli three-bet from the small blind to 1,350,000. Vogelsang gave it some thought before sliding forward enough to make the call.

The flop brought out {7-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} and Loosli continued by betting 1.3 million, and Vogelsang used most of his smaller denomination chips to make the call.

On the turn the {6-Diamonds} hit and Loosli took his time before announcing he was "all in."

Vogelsang tanked for several minutes, but in the end he folded his cards, leaving himself with by far the shortest stack in the tournament.
