Level 21 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Martin Kabrhel opened to 200,000 on the button and called when James Chen moved all in for 1,600,000 in the big blind.

James Chen: K♠9♠
Martin Kabrhel: A♥7♠

The J♣5♣A♣ flop brought Chen some additional outs as he tried to chase down Kabrhel's pair of aces. The 4♠ turn was a brick, while Chen's pair of kings on the K♥ river were no good.

Chen hit the rail in 10th place, bringing the remaining players to the unofficial final table.

Level 21 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Orpen Kisacikoglu jammed his remaining 350,000 chips in from the cutoff, and Cedric Schwaederle made the call from the button. Jerry Odeen then three-bet to 1,500,000 from the big blind, leaving only 120,000 chips back and Schwaederle quickly got out of the way.

Orpen Kisacikoglu: Q♥2♥
Jerry Odeen: A♦9♥

The 4♦7♠10♥ flop helped neither player, but the 4♥ turn gave Kisacikoglu a flush draw. The J♣ river was a big blank, however, and Odeen's ace-high held to eliminate Kisacikoglu in 11th place, leaving the field on the final table bubble.

Daniel Dvoress called in the small blind before Niklas Astedt raised to 400,000 in the big blind.

Dvoress called and checked the Q♣K♦K♥ flop. Astedt continued for 200,000 and the call was made.

The J♥ turn saw Dvoress check-call a bet of 600,000 from Astedt to the 10♦ river. Both players then checked to showdown.

Dvoress showed J♦10♥, but it wasn't enough as Astedt revealed A♣Q♥ for a better two pair to take the pot.

Level 21 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Martin Kabrhel opened to 200,000 from under the gun and called when Orpen Kisacikoglu three-bet to 800,000.

Both players checked the 9♦5♥5♠ flop before the action repeated on the 6♣ turn.

Kisacikoglu checked again after the 4♣ river and was facing an overbet when Kabrhel slid out 2,400,000. Kisacikoglu took some time before making the call.

Kabrhel showed him 9♣9♥ for a flopped full house to take down another big pot.

Level 21 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

The action folded to Niklas Astedt on the button, who jammed all in while covering both of the blinds. Ole Schemion made the call from the small blind and the big blind got out of the way.

Ole Schemion: A♦5♦
Niklas Astedt: 4♠4♦

Astedt remained ahead on the 6♣3♥9♠ flop, and the 4♥ turn gave him a set. Schemion did not hit his straight draw on the 6♦ river, and Astedt's full house sent him home in 12th place.

Gab Yong Kim: 10♣10♦

Kim's pocket pair held through the 9♠6♥3♠10♥7♦ runout, sending Adams to the rail in 13th position.

Level 20 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Ioannis Angelou-Konstas was all in and at risk in middle position against Tamas Adamszki on the button.

Ioannis Angelou-Konstas: K♣K♦
Tamas Adamszki: A♣A♦

Another cooler situation left Angelou-Konstas drawing thin, unable to connect on the 7♠3♥Q♦7♣5♥ runout. Adamszki added the chips to his stack as Angelou-Konstas was the first to be eliminated in the money.

Level 20 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Daniel Dvoress raised to 160,000 from under the gun before Nacho Barbero jammed all in for 895,000 from the hijack. The action folded back to Dvoress, who snap called. Play was halted until the other table had finished their hand, and once it did the cards went on their backs.

Nacho Barbero: 10♠10♣
Daniel Dvoress: K♦K♣

Dvoress' dominating pair would not encounter any threat on the 3♥7♠J♠J♥8♥ runout, and Barbero left the tournament in 15th place, as the last to leave without any money.

The fourteen remaining players, in the meantime, secured the min-cash of €41,610.

Level 20 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

As the bubble continued, Martin Kabrhel opened to 160,000 from under the gun with 8♥5♥ and Jerry Odeen was the only caller in early position holding A♣Q♠.

the flop of 5♦J♥10♦ saw Kabrhel lead out with bottom pair for 150,000 and Odeen called to the Q♦ turn. Kabrhel checked and Odeen followed after hitting top pair.

The 3♣ river produced an almost pot-sized bet of 810,000 from Kabrhel. Odeen took some time but made the correct call to take down a sizeable pot.
