Maximilian Huber Eliminated in 9th Place (€2,969), Erik van Hulst Eliminated in 8th Place (€3,508)
Level 23
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Maximilian Huber, who had started the hand with 20,000, was automatically all in from the big blind. Erik van Hulst opened to 60,000 from early position before Zewei Ding three-bet to 160,000 from middle position. Van Hulst moved all in for around 400,000 and Ding quickly called.
"Please have ace-king" Van Hulst commented before the cards hit their backs.
Maximilian Huber: 10♠6♣ 
Erik van Hulst: 7♠7♥
Zewei Ding: A♣Q♦
"I believe in this hand" Van Hulst remarked about his pocket sevens, which were still in the lead on the K♣J♣6♥ flop. Ding took the lead with second pair on the Q♥ turn and remained ahead on the 8♣ river to send both opponents to the rail and extend his lead over the rest of the field.
