Andras Nemeth Eliminated in 18th Place ($40,400)
Andras Nemeth raised from the hijack to 80,000 and Niklas Astedt called on the button.
They went to a flop of 4♠6♣Q♣ where Nemeth check-called a bet of 75,000 from Astedt.
The turn brought a 9♠ and again Nemeth checked, then was faced with a bet of 175,00 from Astedt. Nemeth thought for a while, and even used some extra time, before he eventually called.
A 6♠ on the river paired the board and brought in the backdoor flush draw, and Nemeth checked for a third time. Astedt then bet enough to put Nemeth all-in, who had around 380,000 behind.
"I'm probably calling," said Nemeth as he tossed in some time-bank cards. After burning through two 30-second extensions, Nemeth called.
Astedt showed A♠A♣ for a pair of aces, and Nemeth showed Q♦J♥ for a pair of queens.
