Richard Weeks Eliminated in 24th Place (€10,940)
Level 30
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Hiep Ninh, Stephen Groom, and Richard Weeks were three-way to a flop of 3♣9♠10♠. Weeks checked out of the big blind and Ninh bet 250,000 from early position. Groom made the call before Weeks shipped all in for 950,000.
Ninh called the bet, but Groom had devious plans and jammed all in himself, for 3,680,000.
"I was trapping with the call but now I want to fold," Ninh claimed. Eventually, he let his hand go to create a showdown between the other two players.
Richard Weeks: A♠8♠
Stephen Groom: 10♥10♦
Groom had top set but Weeks was still live with his flush draw. The 4♥ turn bricked out, however, and the 3♦ river gave Groom a full house to secure the elimination.
