Break and Delayed Updates From Now On

Level 28 : 60,000/125,000, 125,000 ante

After the redraw for the last two tables was concluded, all players were asked to full out a questionnaire and then sent into a break of around 20 minutes to prepare the upcoming live stream. All further updates for both tables will be published according to the 30-minute delay on the stream in order to not spoil any of the action.

Ignacio Lopez De Maturana Eliminated in 19th Place (€4,300)

Level 28 : 60,000/125,000, 125,000 ante

In a battle of the blinds, a short-stacked Ignacio Lopez De Maturana moved all in and he was called by Claudio Di Giacomo from one seat over.

Ignacio Lopez De Maturana: {q-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}
Claudio Di Giacomo: {k-Clubs}{8-Spades}

While the Spaniard had two live cards, he found no help at all on a board of {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{4-Hearts}{6-Spades}{8-Clubs} and Di Giacomo claimed the pot with a pair of eights. Lopez De Maturana was eliminated in 19th place and the remaining 18 hopefuls will now redraw to two tables.

Israel Marmoles Eliminated in 20th Place (€4,300)

Level 28 : 60,000/125,000, 125,000 ante

Israel Marmoles pushed for the last 1,275,000 in the cutoff and was called by Marco Biavaschi in the big blind.

Marmoles was at risk with the {a-Hearts}{5-Hearts} while Biavaschi had a pair in {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}.

On a board of {q-Spades}{j-Spades}{9-Spades}{4-Spades}{3-Diamonds}, Marmoles found no help and since neither player had a spade in the hand, he was eliminated in 20th place for €4,300.

Xiaozhe Liu
Xiaozhe Liu

On a flop of {8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{4-Hearts} the action escalated between Xiaozhe Liu and chip leader Lin Ruida with the former ending up at risk for what appeared to be 2.2 million.

Xiaozhe Liu: {9-Hearts}{8-Hearts}
Lin Ruida: {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

Liu had a pair to go with his flush draw and was looking to avoid any more hearts. He did so on the {a-Diamonds} turn and {j-Spades} river, but the final card improved Ruida to the superior pair and ended Liu's run in 21st place for €4,300.
