David Tous Eliminated in 13th Place (€76,300)
Before the hand, Ami Barer asked the floor about the rule about leaving too few chips behind after a raise, referencing Aleksejs Ponakovs' double up earlier.
"He doesn't know. He usually plays the high rollers and we don't use that rule in the high rollers," Barer was told.
"I can tell by the jacket he plays the high rollers," Barer joked, pointing out Ponakovs' sleek gold sweater that contrasted with his plain blue shirt.
Ponakovs then raised to 160,000 in the hijack and David Tous slid forward a tower of green 25,000 chips from the small blind. Ponakovs didn't even wait for the amount before moving all in. "No," Tous cried out as he called for his last 1,800,000.
David Tous: A♣9♠
Aleksejs Ponakovs: A♥K♦
Tous was dominated and found no help on the 10♥J♥6♣5♦J♠ flop as Ponakovs' king-kicker was enough to send him to the rail in 13th place.
