Anton Wigg Eliminated in 7th Place (€96,200)
The first hand back after the break has led to further fireworks and a brutal bad beat.
Anton Wigg opened to 125,000 from early position, before facing a three-bet to 375,000 from Patrik Jaros on the button. Action folded back to Wigg, who promptly four-bet to 625,000.
Jaros thought it through for a bit, before five-bet jamming with the covering stack. Wigg quickly called for his 1,920,000 stack, leading Jaros to exclaim "Oh dear!!"
Anton Wigg: K♣K♠
Patrik Jaros: A♠8♠
Jaros pleaded with the dealer for an ace, and as if from the heavens, the flop came A♦10♥6♦. Jaros said "Yes, hold!", while Wigg looked forlorn.
The J♣9♥ turn and river were not the king Wigg now needed, and Jaros took a huge pot to take a commanding lead in the tournament.
Wigg stood up shaking his head, in disbelief at what had just transpired, and the dangerous Swede had to take his leave.
