£1 Million Guaranteed 8-Max: Loeser and Filatov Just Miss Final Table
Level 33
: 2,500,000/5,000,000, 5,000,000 ante
After Manig Loeser busted in 11th place, the German posted this on Twitter:
Not so much the commentator's curse but the malediction from a mate, Loeser's words were barely in the Twittersphere before Filatov ("I had 7 million chips a minute ago") departed. Filatov felt the pain.
"It's a shame because I had such a spin-up. But queens into aces from the small blind into the big blind was followed by pocket tens into 
when I was in the cut-off position and he was on the button. That's it. I can't be unhappy."
Indeed, Filatov came into the day short and put on a superb show to run so deep. Daniel Clark is one of the biggest stacks with eight players left. There are more Brits on the supporting rail than players left in the tournament.
