Jack Salter Eliminated in 9th Place (�88,520)

Level 28 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Jack Salter

Jack Salter moved all in from middle position for 960,000. Chris Hunichen moved all in from the cutoff and the remaining players all folded.

Jack Salter: {4-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}
Chris Hunichen: {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}

"I was really hoping to see ace-jack," said Hunichen.

The flop {5-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} had Salter still in front, but the {9-Diamonds} counterfeited Salter's two pair, and the river {10-Hearts} could not save the Brit as he was eliminated in ninth place.

Tibor Nagygyorgy opened to 240,000 from under the gun and Uri Reichenstein three-bet to 825,000 in the hijack. Andreas Berggren stuck in the last of his 420,000 chips from the small blind and Nagygyorgy folded.

Andreas Berggren: {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Uri Reichenstein: {q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

The flop came {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{3-Hearts} to give Berggren a pair of aces but Reichenstein picked up a flush draw. The {4-Hearts} and {4-Diamonds} bricked off and Berggren held on for a double up.

Pablo Melogno: {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

There was a ten on the flop for Melogno coming {5-Hearts}{7-Spades}{10-Hearts}, but better was still to come with the {a-Diamonds} on the turn giving him the lead. "Yes! Yes! Yes!" shouted Antonios Paschalidis loudly as he secured a payjump and a seat at the final table with the {8-Diamonds} river sealing Bardon's elimination.

Perfect Timing for Ferreira

Level 27 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

The action folded to Jean Ferreira who pushed all in for his last 395,000 on the button. Uri Reichenstein re-shoved all in from the small blind and Pauli Ayras quickly folded his big blind.

Jean Ferreira: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
Uri Reichenstein: {k-Clubs}{7-Clubs}
