Tom Orpaz Eliminated in 9th Place (€37,630)
Level 32
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Tom Orpaz shoved all of his 1,080,000 chips in the middle from the hijack and Walter Ripper rejammed from the small blind for a little more. Sim Kok Wai folded his big blind and the other two players revealed their cards.
Tom Orpaz: Q♦10♦
Walter Ripper: K♣Q♥
Ripper had the dominating hand, though the A♣7♣7♠ flop brought some chop outs. Orpaz was yelling for a queen to grace the turn, but the 3♦ appeared instead. He tried the same trick one more time on the river, but this time the 4♠ showed up.
Orpaz shook hands with his opponents and excused the Brazilian rail for celebrating loudly. He was the first player to bust from the €2,200 FPS High Roller final table and stuffed his wallet with €37,630 as a result.
