Reporters got to the table just as the hands were on their backs, so a player at the table helped to fill in the action.

Derk van Luijk open-raised from under the gun and picked up a call from Thomas Hueber and a call from Kyriakos Papadopoulos in the big blind.

The flop came 9Q5 and Papadopoulos checked. Van Luijk continued for 4,000 and only Papadopoulos called.

The turn was the 9 and Papadopoulos led out with a bet into a pot of around 50,000. Van Luijk then shoved all in and Papadopoulos snap-called. Van Luijk had KK for pocket kings, but Papadopoulos flipped over A3 for a turned flush.

The river came the 7 and Papadopoulos held to win the pot, reducing Van Luijk's stack to around 12,000. Moments later, Van Luijk was eliminated from the tournament.
