Daniel Smuskovics Eliminated in 21st Place (€4,335)
Vivian Saliba raised her button to 25,000 and Alen Sabic called in the small blind. Daniel Smuskovics then three-bet to 125,000 in the big blind.
Saliba pondered for some minutes before finding a fold, after which Sabic tossed in a quick call.
The flop fell 9♦Q♦2♥ and saw Sabic lead the pot. Smuskovics put in his stack of 350,000 and Sabic quickly called.
Daniel Smuskovics: A♥A♣K♣J♠
Alen Sabic: Q♥9♥8♦6♣
Sabic had flopped two pair and a flush draw to take a big lead over Smuskovics' aces. The Q♠ turn improved him to a full house, and the 5♠ river could not bail Smuskovics out.
Smuskovics' dream of back-to-back final tables was crushed as he left the tournament area with a little more than the minimum cash. Sabic, meanwhile, increased his monstrous stack even more and ended up with around 130 big blinds.
