Niall Farrell Eliminated in 16th Place (€42,320)
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Padraig O'Neill raised to 100,000 in early position before Jon Kyte three-bet to 320,000 in middle position. Niall Farrell then four-bet to 675,000 in the hijack.
O'Neill folded, but Kyte moved all in and Farrell quickly called for 2,100,000.
Niall Farrell: Q♠Q♥
Jon Kyte: A♥K♠
"I always have the pair against ace-king. Finally time for ace-king to win," Kyte said heading to the 3♥7♣8♣ flop, which kept Farrell in the lead. The turn, though, was the K♣ and Kyte made top pair to move in front.
Farrell watched helplessly as the 4♣ completed the board and sealed his elimination in 16th place.
"So annoying," he said as he got up from his seat.
"You're the flip king," tablemate Dejan Jakovljevic told Kyte as the chip leader stacked up nearly 10,000,000.
