Our tournament chip leader is reading Jordan Belfort's boiler-room memoir The Wolf From Wall Street at the tables. And if things continue at the pace they have started, he'll soon be adding his own chapter to the book sub-titled "Incredible True Story of Fortunes". PokerStars Blog reports here.
[Removed:40] was already down a lot after losing a big pot on the feature table not too long ago. Just now he lost the rest of his chips and the Italian player is heading to the exit as we speak.
From the small blind Anthony Ghamrawi made a raise. Vitagliano shoved from the big blind and Ghamrawi made the call for 460,000 total.
Anthony Ghamrawi: 
[Removed:40]: 
Three direct outs but none of the nines would come. The 
board din't improve anyone and the ace-jack high of Ghamrawi took it down.
The remaining players are now all guaranteed €50,250.

Gavin O'Rourke raised to 85,000 from the cutoff and Oleksii Khoroshenin three-bet from the button to 225,000. Timo Pfutzenreuter went into the tank for a long time before making it 405,000 from the small blind.
Both Marko Neumann, from the big blind, and the initial raiser folded putting the action back on Khoroshenin. The Ukrainian pro tanked for over six minutes, with about 1.1 million left behind, and he finally opted to move all in for 1,140,000 and his opponent snap-called.
Khoroshenin: 
Pfutzenreuter: 
The board ran out 
and Khoroshenin raked in a big double up. Pfutzenreuter has now lost his chip lead and the short-handed pre final table action gets that much more interesting all of a sudden.

Johnny Lodden was for most people, the only familiar face left in the field. But then, some say that the penultimate table is typically a Lodden graveyard, the place where Lodden fans go to cry. Perhaps his departure wasn’t that surprising after all? The PokerStars blog reports here.
Andras Kovacs open shoved the button for the remaining 600,000 he had. Simeon Naydenov in the small blind asked for a count, and then announced all in himself. Roman Korenev quickly folded his big blind and the cards were tabled.
Andras Kovacs: 
Simeon Naydenov: 
Naydenov was the favorite but not by much, Kovacs cards were live.
The 
in the window hurt for Kovacs though, and the 
and 
didn't help either. The on the turn and on the river were blanks and Kovacs was needed to be heading for the exit.
Andras Kovacs returns home with a cheque for €50,250.
