Christian Pederson Eliminated in 8th Place (€103,700)


In the previous hand, Toni Kaukua raised from the hijack and faced a three-bet from Pedersen. Kaukua folded.
The next hand, action folded around to Kaukua, who raised to 200,000 from the cutoff. Christian Pedersen put in a three-bet again, this time from the small blind to 700,000. Kaukua didn't want to be pushed around and quickly four-bet all in for a few million.
It turned out Pedersen wasn't playing games. He had a legitimate hand. Kaukua on the other hand was attempting a four-bet bluff to get his opponent to fold.
Pedersen called and players flipped their cards.

The board ran out to give Kaukua a pair of aces. Players around the table looked visibly shocked. Pedersen left the table in a storm, uttering a profanity under his breath that can't be repeated here. Pederson was eliminated in eighth place for €103,700.
Players were still discussing it as the next hand was dealt.
"What you think that was a fish move?" said Kaukua.
