Nitsche Eliminated Just Shy of Day 3

Jonathan "Proudflop" Proudfoot raised to 184,000 from middle position and Dominik "Bounatirou" Nitsche made the call from the big blind. Proudfoot then continued for 105,160 on the 4♦5♥4♠ flop after a check from Nitsche, and Nitsche once again called.

The third four appeared with the 4♥ on the turn, and Nitsche checked once more to his opponent. Proudfoot then put 149,600 more into the pot, after which Nitsche went all-in for 557,016 chips. Proudfoot quickly called and the cards were tabled.

Dominik "Bounatirou" Nitsche: A♦10♦
Jonathan "Proudflop" Proudfoot: 9♦9♣

Nitsche would need to hit one of his hole cards to stay alive in the WCOOP Main Event, but the 8♥ on the river assured his exit instead. Only 43 players are now still in contention, with 40 making it through to Day 3.
