Wai Leong Chan Eliminated in 2nd Place (€420,800)

Level 23 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Andras Nemeth called on the button before Wai Leong Chan raised. Nemeth opted to move all in and was snap-called by Chan.

Andras Nemeth: {a-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}
Wai Leong Chan: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}

Chan was in a dream scenario and all set to leave Nemeth of the clutches of elimination.

The {4-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{4-Clubs} flop brought hope for Nemeth who picked up a wheel draw. His rail was screaming for a three to hit when the turn was shown to be the {q-Hearts}. But when the dealer flipped over the {3-Clubs} on the river, they exploded into jubilation as Nemeth hit the wheel and a shocked Chan realized that was it.

It was confirmed that Nemeth covered Chan, and the latter was eliminated in 2nd place for €420,800.

Nemeth took the €25,000 Single-Day High Roller crown and the first-place prize worth €605,600.

A full recap of the day's action will be posted later on with a rundown of the final table results.
