Roman Hrabec Eliminated in 4th Place (£227,800)

Level 31 : Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
Roman Hrabec
Roman Hrabec

Jack Sinclair opened to 400,000 from under the gun and Roman Hrabec three-bet jammed a stack of 1,525,000 from the big blind. Sinclair called with a bigger stack.

Roman Hrabec: {a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Jack Sinclair: {a-Spades}{j-Clubs}

Hrabec was dominated and needed to hit a ten to stay alive. The flop came {j-Spades}{6-Clubs}{q-Clubs} to give Hrabec some hope with a gutshot, but the board then finished out {4-Clubs}{2-Hearts} to send the online qualifier out in fourth place for £227,800.

Hrabec, a former ice hockey pro, entered Day 6 as the chip leader but eventually lost the lead and couldn't pull back ahead.
