Oleg Vasylchenko Eliminated in 10th Place (€63,300)
Mike Watson opened to 110,000 from early position and Oleg Vasylchenko called on the button after winning two consecutive pots to chip up a bit. Joachim Haraldstad also called out of the big blind.
Haraldstad checked on the flop of 9♣Q♥4♥ and Watson also checked before Vasylchenko fired a bet of 140,000. Haraldstad called and Watson folded. Haraldstad checked again on the 2♥ turn and Vasylchenko sized up to 425,000. Haraldstad again called.
Haraldstad checked a third time on the 3♠ river and Vasylchenko took a moment before announcing all in for around 1,100,000. Haraldstad quickly called with a bigger stack.
Vasylchenko looked defeated as he turned over A♥10♠ for just ace-high with the nut flush blocker. But the blocker wasn't enough to get a fold from Haraldstad, who held 10♥5♥ for a ten-high flush to eliminate the Ukrainian on the final table bubble.
