Michael Soyza Eliminated in 15th Place (€46,750)

Level 17 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Michael Soyza
Michael Soyza

Laszlo Bujtas raised to 90,000 from the button and Michael Soyza shoved in the small blind for 720,000. Gakuto "Gackt" Oshiro contemplated his options for a while in the big blind but opted to fold in the end. Bujtas looked at Soyza and then decided to make the call with the bigger stack.

Michael Soyza: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}
Laszlo Bujtas: {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

The flop came {q-Hearts}{2-Spades}{7-Hearts} which didn't change things.

The turn was the {q-Spades} to pair the board up.

"Chop!" Charlie Carrel commented.

"Just don't lose!" Soyza responded.

The river completed the board with the {9-Clubs} for Bujtas to make two pair to eliminate Soyza.

"Guess the "Just don't lose!" didn't work," Soyza added while making his way out of the tournament area.

Greben Leaves Dvoress on Crumbs

Level 17 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Daniel Dvoress pushed all in for 480,000 from under the gun and Job Greben stuck in the last of his 440,000 on the button. Pedro Marques thought for a moment from the big blind but decided to step aside.

Job Greben: {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}
Daniel Dvoress: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}

The two players were off to the races and it was Greben who stayed out front after the {10-Hearts}{9-Spades}{2-Diamonds} flop. The {7-Diamonds} on the turn and the {k-Hearts} on the river changed nothing as Greben doubled up, leaving Dvoress with just 40,000 chips.

Laszlo Bujtas raised to 80,000 from the cutoff and Jean-Noel Thorel defended his big blind.

The flop came {9-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{10-Hearts}, Thorel check-called the 80,000 continuation-bet of Bujtas.

The turn was the {3-Clubs}, Thorel checked again. Bujtas now fired a bet of 265,000 over the line and that was enough to make Thorel give up on the hand.

Hiroshi Nishiyama Eliminated in 16th Place (€44,480)

Level 17 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Hiroshi Nishiyama

Jean-Noel Thorel opened to 100,000 in early position and Hiroshi Nishiyama jammed all in for 135,000 in the hijack. The action folded back to Thorel who made the easy call.

Hiroshi Nishiyama: {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}
Jean-Noel Thorel: {7-Spades}{7-Diamonds}

Patience paid off for Nishiyama who got his chips in the middle with the best possible holding and the {k-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} flop was safe thus far. However, the {7-Hearts} on the turn gave Thorel a set of sevens and he let out a fist pump as the {k-Clubs} completed the board.
