Evgenii Fidchuk Eliminated in 20th Place (€8,400)
Level 24
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
In a hand that started just before the break, Evgenii Fidchuk and Fabio Peluso were battling over a 200,000 pot. The board was fanned out 2♦5♦6♥7♥ and Fidchuk added 115,000 more to that via a bet from under the gun. Peluso was on the button and raised all in, covering Fidchuk's stack of roughly 600,000.
Fidchuk tanked until far into the break but eventually made the call.
Evgenii Fidchuk: A♥J♥
Fabio Peluso: 5♠5♣
Fidchuk had a flush draw and two overcards, but only the former was live as Peluso had flopped a set. The river was red, but with the K♦ coming out, Fidchuck was eliminated and scored a five-figure cash with his bounties included. Peluso, meanwhile, added a bounty token and soared to over two million in chips.
