Schwippert's River Raise Paid

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Jan-Eric Schwippert
Jan-Eric Schwippert

Jan Schwippert opened for 32,000 in the cutoff and small blind Gab Yong Kim made it 104,000 to go. Schwippert called and it appeared the {j-Hearts}{8-Spades}{6-Clubs} flop checked through. The {10-Clubs} turn definitely checked through, leading to a {3-Clubs} river. Kim bet 65,000 and Schwippert slid in a sizable raise to 215,000.

Kim thought about 30 seconds and flicked in a call but couldn't beat {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs} for a backdoor flush.

Fournier Falls To Yurasov

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

"All in and call!" was overheard by a dealer on Table 7 with the board reading {k-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{2-Diamonds}. Eric Fournier was the one at risk in the big blind and Dmitry Yurasov was the one looking to send him to the rail.

Eric Fournier: {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}
Dmitry Yurasov: {k-Spades}{9-Spades}

Fournier's sixes were in trouble against Yurasov's flopped pair of kings and he was unable to improve any further as the turn {5-Hearts} and river {8-Spades} finished the runout, resulting in his elimination from the tournament as Yurasov earned the pot to bring him ever-closer to the million-mark.

Khatskevich Doubles With Queens

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Maryna Khatskevich
Maryna Khatskevich

Maryna Khatskevich raised from under the gun to 35,000 and it folded back around to big blind Jose Quintas. Quintas opted to push all in for effectively 396,000 as he covered Khatskevich. She thought about it for a while and eventually got the clock called on her by Clement Richez. She had ten seconds left when she announced a call.

Maryna Khatskevich: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Jose Quintas: {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}

Quintas needed to hit an ace but gained some backdoors on the {k-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{3-Clubs} flop. He had some extra direct outs after the {2-Hearts} on the turn but the {7-Clubs} on the river was safe for Khatskevich to double up.

Velvelt Eliminates Navarro

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

On a {j-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{10-Spades} flop, big blind Mario Navarro shoved all in for about 70,000 and Urmo Velvelt called in early position. Both had flush draws but Navarro's {3-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} was inferior to {a-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}.

The {3-Hearts} turn improved Navarro to a leading pair, but he made a losing flush on the {7-Diamonds} river.

Quintas Eliminates Holmqvist

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

Filip Holmqvist raised all in from early position for his last 88,000 and Jose Quintas isolated with a jam of a little under 500,000 from the button. The player in the big blind had less than 10 big blinds in front of him and he wanted a count of the Holmqvist his stack. He ended up folding and Quintas and Holmqvist opened up.

Filip Holmqvist: {a-Clubs}{9-Hearts}
Jose Quintas: {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}

The board ran out {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{7-Spades} and Holmqvist wasn't able to hit anything to stay alive in the €2,200 EPT National High Roller.

Ante: 16,000

"Wow, It's Insane"

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Clement Richez
Clement Richez

There was around 120,000 in the middle on a board of {2-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{k-Spades} in a heads-up pot between Dominykas Mikolaitis in the big blind and Clement Richez, who was in middle position. Mikolaitis had checked to Richez and action was back on him facing a bet of 35,000. He took about a minute and then check-raised to 125,000. Richez thought for about 35 seconds and called.

The river came {6-Hearts} and Mikolaitis announced he was all in. Richez immediately called.

Dominykas Mikolaitis: {j-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Clement Richez: {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

"Wow," said Mikolaitis realizing his second-nuts was up against the stone nuts of Richez. "It's insane," he added.

His chips were pushed Richez's way and a floor man came to walk him to the payout desk.

"Good luck, guys," said Mikolaitis as he made his way from the table. Meanwhile, Richez has continued to accumulate and now finds himself with what looks to be 2.5 million in front of him going to the first break of the day.
