Robin Luca Wozniczek Eliminated in 5th Place ($88,480)

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Robin Wozniczek
Robin Wozniczek

Hand #35: Jonathan Abdellatif raised {9-Hearts}{7-Hearts} to 100,000 from under the gun. Robin Luca Wozniczek called from the small blind with {K-Hearts}{6-Hearts} and Denis Timofeev came along with {A-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} from the big blind.

The flop came {3-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{6-Clubs}, hitting all three in some sort of way.

Action checked to Abdellatif and he continued for 160,000. Wozniczek check-raised to 380,000 and action was back on Abdellatif as Timofeev folded his bottom pair. The Belgian player thought about it for a bit before he shoved all in for 1,760,000. Wozniczek snap called for 1,590,000 leaving Abdellatif with just 170,000 if he would lose.

The {J-Clubs} on the turn was a blank, making Wozniczek a 70% favorite. The {4-Spades} on the river, however, gave Abdellatif the winning straight and Wozniczek departed in 5th place.

The remaining four players are now guaranteed $119,480.
