Alexandridis Survives; Eljach Wins a Pot
Level 17
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Symeon Alexandridis flipped with J♠J♥ against ace-ten and made a straight on the 10♣9♠4♥Q♠K♦ runout to stay in contention.
Less fortunate were Timothy Adams, Adi Rajkovic and Athanasios Kidas as they all bowed out in quick succession.
Omar Eljach then had a portion of his stack in against previous nemesis Jacob Amsellem when he check-called a bet of 75,000 by the Frenchman on the 6♥4♠4♣6♦ turn. The 7♣ river was checked and Eljach tabled the J♥J♠, Amsellem mucked his 2♣2♦ with a big smile on the face.
The field is now down to just 126 players and the money bubble is right around the corner.
