Runcan Doubles Through Schuh

Level 36 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Michal Schuh shoved from the button and Paul Runcan called from the big blind for around 3,300,000.

Paul Runcan: A?Q? All in
Michal Schuh: K?10?

Runcan was ahead but also the at-risk player, and fell behind on the 5?10?7? flop as Schuh paired his ten. A Q? on the turn came to Runcan's rescue, and he held on as the J? river was a brick.

Hong Pham Eliminated in 9th Place (€24,750)

Level 36 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Hong Pham
Hong Pham

Hong Pham open-jammed as first to act, putting her stack of 4,250,000 at risk. Vito Branciforte called in the big blind before the rest of the table mucked their cards.

Hong Pham: A?Q? All in
Vito Branciforte: A?A?

The 4?8?5? flop was of no help to Pham, but the Q? turn provided her a glimmer of hope. Ultimately, though, Branciforte's aces held as the 6? arrived on the river.

Pham was the first to depart from the final table, pocketing €24,750 for her ninth place.

Andrea Ricci Eliminated in 10th Place (€21,650)

Level 36 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Andrea Ricci
Andrea Ricci

Georgios Tsouloftas shoved from the small blind and Andrea Ricci called for his stack of 3,700,000 in the big blind.

Andrea Ricci: Q?9? All in
Georgios Tsouloftas: K?5?

Ricci had gone from joint chip leader just moments ago to now being at risk and behind.

The flop of 9?8?3? gave Ricci top pair but the K? saw him fall behind with just one card to come. No help arrived on the 3? river, which meant Ricci was eliminated in tenth.

Tsouloftas Eclipses Twenty Million

Level 36 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Georgios Tsouloftas raised to 800,000 with J?2? and Pascal Pflock defended 10?9? in the big blind. Pflock checked to Tsouloftas on the K?Q?7? flop before he called the latter's bet of 525,000.

The 7? turn saw Tsouloftas size up to 2,000,000, this time receiving a quick check-fold from Pflock.

Van Hulst Finds a Chop on the River, Doubles Next Hand

Level 36 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Erik van Hulst
Erik van Hulst

A couple of hands have turned Erik van Hulst's tournament around!

First, Michal Schuh shoved from the cutoff and Van Hulst called from the small blind for around 1,600,000.

Erik van Hulst: Q?10? All in
Michal Schuh: Q?J?

The flop of K?7?7? kept Schuh in the lead, as did the 8? turn, but the kc] river gave them both two pair with a queen kicker.

In the next hand, Van Hulst shoved from the button and Mousa Awad called from the big blind.

Erik van Hulst: Q?J? All in
Mousa Awad: A?8?

Awad flopped an eight but Van Hulst turned a queen and survived the river on the 4?8?10?Q?4? board, which brought his stack toward the five-million mark.
