Kazuyuki Tanemura

Kazuyuki Tanemura moved in for his last 38,000 under the gun, and Andras Nemeth raised 75,000 on the button. Pablo Silva called from the big blind.

There was no betting on the J5827 runout, and Silva tabled K10, missing the board. Tanemura rolled over 32 for a pair of deuces, but Nemeth dragged the pot with A2, out-kicking Tanemura.

Thomas Eychenne Eliminated in 6th Place (€31,200)

Level 17 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Thomas Eychenne
Thomas Eychenne

Short on chips, Thomas Eychenne just called in the big blind after Sirzat Hissou had made it 45,000 from the cutoff.

The A26 flop was checked by Eychenne, before Hissou threw out a single green chip for a 25,000 bet. Eychenne tanked for a little bit, but then shoved over the top for his remaining few chips. Hissou snap-called and was way ahead.

Thomas Eychenne: 65
Sirzat Hissou: A3

A K on the turn proved to be no help for the Frenchman, leaving him needing to hit a five or a six on the river to survive.

Neither came as the Q completed the board, sending Eychenne to the rail and chipping up Hissou to second in chips.

Tajiou Puts Pressure on Nemeth

Level 17 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Andras Nemeth opened 40,000 under the gun before Mounir Tajiou three-bet 76,000 next to act. The action folded around to Nemeth and he made the call.

The dealer fanned a flop of Q96, and Nemeth check-called a bet of 64,000.

When the 6 fell on the turn, Nemeth checked and Tajiou fired 176,000 into the middle. This time Nemeth surrendered as his cards went into the muck.

Silva and Nemeth checked it down on the KJ2610 runout, and Silva tabled A6, Nemeth showed A9, and Eychenne scored the triple with his KJ.

Lehut Bubbles With Eights vs Kings vs Ace-King

Level 16 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Jean-Vincent Lehut
Jean-Vincent Lehut

Jean-Vincent Lehut bubbled in a crazy three-way hand.

Thomas Eychenne began by opening to 35,000 from under the gun. He was called by Pablo Silva in middle position, before Jean-Vincent Lehut shoved his remaining chips over the top from the small blind. It was now 159,000 to call, but Eychenne made it 300,000. Incredibly, Silva then re-shoved and got called, with the Brazilian's tournament life also at risk along with Lehut's.

Jean-Vincent Lehut: 88
Pablo Silva: KK
Thomas Eychenne: AK

The flop came 6J10, giving Eychenne a straight draw. The 2 then landed on the turn, with Silva set to scoop a gigantic pot.

The 4 completed the board, sending Lehut to the rail and leaving Eychenne with a little over three big blinds.

Astedt Knocked Out Nearing Money

Level 16 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Niklas Åstedt
Niklas Åstedt

Andras Nemeth opened 30,000 before Niklas Astedt shoved his stack of about 250,000 into the middle. Nemeth wasted no time making the call, and both hands were tabled.

Niklas Astedt: A10
Andras Nemeth: AQ

The KJ6 flop gave both players a straight draw, needing each other's card. The J turn and 9 river were no help for Astedt though as he exited in 8th place.

Lehut Saved by the River

Level 16 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Andras Nemeth
Andras Nemeth

Andras Nemuth shoved from the small blind, having Jean-Vincent Lehut covered. The Frenchman called and it went to a flop.

Jean-Vincent Lehut: A7
Andras Nemuth: A10

Lehut was up from his chair, as the flop came 2102.

A 2 on the turn gave him extra chop outs, but he seemed resigned to the fact that his tournament was over.

But a miraculous A landed on the river, denying Nemuth of the whole pot and ensuring Lehut lived to fight another hand.
