Azusa Maeda Eliminated in 2nd Place (€133,471)

After a slow start the heads-up really got going towards the end. In the final hand Maeda was already short and decided to limp in from the button. After Humbert checked the flop read {9-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}. The Swiss youngster decided to check after which Maeda shoved all-in and Humbert snap-called.

Azusa Maeda{4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}
Guillaume Humbert{5-Clubs}{8-Hearts}

Maeda was almost drawing dead and the {4-Hearts} on the turn sealed the deal! The meaningless river was the {4-Clubs} giving Maeda trips but that couldn't beat the flopped straight Humbert already had.
