Stuart Fox eliminated in 5th place (€55,000)
Level 24
: 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante
Stuart Fox was down to his last 41,000 and in the big blind. He called all-in after Ronny Kaiser had raised to 50,000 and Jani Sointula called from the small blind.
The flop came down and both players checked. The turn was and Kaiser bet 30,000 and that was enough to force out Sointula.
Fox tabled but was drawing dead to Kaiser's . As the the inconsequential river was being dealt Fox was already wishing everyone luck.
A quick conversation with Fox's mate Billy on the rail revealed that Fox had accepted his fate in the break but they conversed at how amazing it would be if two players got involved and someone got eliminated to make him an extra €10,000. Wishes can and did come true.
