Alfredo Vega Meister: {k-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{3-Hearts}
Bjorn Verbakel: {a-Spades}{7-Hearts}{5-Spades}{2-Diamonds}

The chip and a chair story of Vega Meister found a sad ending as he missed out on all four live cards, a gutshot and flush draw on the {q-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} runout. Vega Meister was eliminated in 5th place and takes home €13,078.

Beckers Doubles Through Vega Meister

Level 32 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Ken Beckers

Alfredo Vega Meister raised the pot to 560,000 and Ken Beckers jammed for 1,640,000 in the small blind, which Vega Meister very begrudgingly called with the slightly superior stack size after Zhao Feng let go of {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{9-Spades}{8-Hearts} in the big blind.

Ken Beckers: {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{3-Clubs}
Alfredo Vega Meister: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{5-Spades}

"I want some black cards," Vega Meister demanded from the dealer while Beckers paced towards his rail and then back to the seat.

The {j-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop brought no help to Vega Meister and the {k-Hearts} turn then gave some equity as he needed one of the two remaining fives. However, the {j-Diamonds} on the river changed nothing whatsoever to leave Vega Meister on crumbs.

Beckers Dodges the World to Double

Level 32 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Ken Beckers
Ken Beckers

Ken Beckers raised the pot and then called all-in for 700,000 when Zhao Feng went over the top.

Ken Beckers: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{7-Spades}
Zhao Feng: {q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}

The {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} flop gave Feng a ton of outs but he bricked the {j-Clubs} turn and {9-Spades} river as Beckers doubled with ace-king high.

Down to just 350,000, Tobias Peters moved all-in and was looked up by Richard Toth.

Tobias Peters: {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{7-Hearts}
Richard Toth: {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}

The {5-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts} flop and {6-Spades} turn kept Peters alive with six outs but he bricked the {q-Diamonds} river ended his run in 6th place for €9,615.

Quadruple Up for Beckers

Level 32 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Ken Beckers piled the last 235,000 in from under the gun with the {k-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{5-Spades} and Zhao Feng called with the {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{9-Hearts}. Bjorn Verbakel also stuck around in the small blind with {j-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{3-Hearts} and so did Alfredo Vega Meister with the {j-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{5-Hearts} in the big blind.

The active players checked down the {9-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{4-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{2-Spades} board and Beckers quadrupled up with two pair.

ICM Fold by Vega Meister

Level 32 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Bjorn Verbakel raised to 320,000 on the button with the {10-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{4-Spades} and Alfredo Vega Meister in the small blind gave it some thought with the {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} before folding. He was needled by Verbakel about playing according to ICM and Vega Meister folded, as did Ken Beckers in the big blind.
