Frantic Restart in the €51,000 High Roller; Eibinger and Simao Out

Matthias Eibinger was the first of four short stacks to get his stack in and ran out of luck with ace-king versus queen-jack before a string of double ups changed the stack sizes dramatically in quick succession.

Sergio Aido scored a big double with {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts} against the {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} of Sam Greenwood, who then stayed in contention with {A-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} cracking the {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} of Patrik Antonius thanks to four diamonds on the board.

Greenwood doubled once more with {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} against the {K-Clubs}{9-Clubs} of Aido, as a nine on the flop was followed by an ace on the river.

Eventually, partypoker ambassador Joao Simao ran out of chips soon after when his {A-Spades}{6-Spades} could not hold up against Aido's {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts}, a queen and jack appeared on the flop. Simao, who scored his third partypoker LIVE MILLIONS Super High Roller final table, added another €160,000 to his poker resume.

In fewer than two full levels, the €1,100 Open Event #1 has lost almost two dozen players and there are just 64 hopefuls in contention. The €101,000 Super High Roller is preparing for the start but there will be a delay of 15 minutes before any cards get in the air.
