Patrik Antonius seeks second EPT title
Patrik Antonius seeks second EPT title

The final table of the 2018 PokerStars and Monte-Carlo©Casino EPT Main Event €5,300 is set and Nicolas Dumont leads the last eight hopefuls out of 777 entries into tomorrow's final table. While Dumont sits quite comfortable at the top of the leader board, it won't be an easy ride for the Frenchman as he faces tough competition for the Platinum Pass worth $30,000 and top prize of €712,000. All eight remaining finalists have locked up €68,300 for their efforts, but all eyes are set on the elusive trophy and the additional bragging rights that come with it.

Dumont bagged up 5,255,000, good enough for 52 big blinds upon restart of the final table. Second in chips is Tomas Jozonis with 3,800,000 and you can read up on the story of the Lithuanian here. Several other players are very close together in the overall chip counts with Honglin Jiang (2,985,000), EPT2 Baden champion Patrik Antonius (2,975,000), Javier Fernandez (2,750,000) and David Peters (2,400,000) all separated by a mere five big blinds.

"Seven high like a boss" Bluff Goes Through for Krisztian Gyorgyi

PokerStars online qualifier Krisztian Gyorgyi, who started his journey in a €5 satellite, made it through with 1,940,000 and successfully pulled off a instant classic bluff with seven-deuce against Jozonis. You can read more about the Hungarian here, who will return with 1,940,000 in chips. Last but not least, German superstar Ole Schemion, who already finished 6th in the EPT Grand Final here in Monte-Carlo, rounds up the final table line-up with 1,160,000.

Day 5 Action

Only 16 hopefuls returned to the tables and the first level of Day 5 brought plenty of action and four players were sent to the rail. Dan Abouaf was the first one to run out of chips, followed by PokerStars Team Pro Andre Akkari. The Brazilian four-bet for almost half of his stack with pocket queens and called off the shove of Patrik Antonius, who has never in any threat with pocket aces.

Next to exit was Davor Lanini and Adrian Mateos then fell in 13th place. The three-time WSOP bracelet winner had already won the EPT Main Event title right here at Le Sporting, but things didn't go as smoothly on the last two tables for the young Spaniard. Ultimately, Mateos got his last 20 big blinds in with pocket fives and Ole Schemion held the dominating pocket nines, an ace-high board provided no help whatsoever. The Spaniard jumped into the in promptu €25,500 High Roller after his Main Event exit and finished third.

Two Cashes for Adrian Mateos in one day

Another former EPT champion failed to navigate his way to the unofficial final table, as Davidi Kitai busted on the TV table soon after Stefan Huber had been eliminated on the outer table. Kitai three-bet all in with king-queen and was called by Javier Fernandez with the inferior king-ten, but a ten on the flop was all it took to dispatch the Belgian. Josip Simunic missed out on the TV spotlight after his ace-jack found no help against PokerStars online qualifier Krisztian Gyorgyi.

Until the dinner break there were still nine players remaining and Ole Schemion was the dominating chip leader, but things all but changed after that. Patrik Antonius doubled through Schemion when flopping a set of fives versus pocket queens and things got even worse for the German, who now resides in Vienna, soon after.

Sadri Saleh had lost most of his chips in a move against Schemion and three-bet all in with pocket deuces out of the small blind right after. Nicolas Dumont in the big blind reshoved with pocket queens and Schemion called with pocket jacks. Dumont hit a set on the flop and suddenly Schemion was the second-shortest stack, while Saleh exited in 9th place. The Frenchman more than doubled into the chip lead and stayed in the top spot for the remainder of the night.

No further elimination took place within the final level of the night, as Tomas Jozonis survived his all in with ace-seven against the jack-nine of Javier Fernandez in a battle of the blinds, ensuring eight remaining hopefuls for the final day at Le Sporting. They will be back tomorrow on Friday, May 4, 2018, at noon local time for level 29 with blinds of 50,000/100,000 and a big blind ante of 100,000.

The live stream with hole cards displayed will run on a security delay of 30 minutes and the PokerNews live updates will be published accordingly. Tune back in then to find out who becomes the latest addition to the EPT Main Event champion's club.

Patrik Antonius raised to 120,000 with the {A-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} in the cutoff and Ole Schemion called on the button. Sadri Saleh moved all in for 560,000 in the small blind and Nicolas Dumont reshoved from the big blind. Antonius folded and Schemion snap-called.

Sadri Saleh: {2-Spades}{2-Clubs}
Nicolas Dumont: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}
Ole Schemion: {J-Spades}{J-Diamonds}

The board ran out {Q-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{5-Spades}{4-Spades}{K-Diamonds} and Saleh was eliminated in 9th place for €54,000, while Schemion went from chip leader with nine left to second bottom stack with eight hopefuls remaining.

"What a crazy orbit," Honglin Jiang joked and Antonius added "and he started it with deuce seven. If he doesn't do that with deuce seven, none of it would have happened," causing lots of smiles all around the table.

Antonius Takes the Chip Lead from Schemion

Patrik Antonius

While the players were still talking and laughing about Krisztian Gyorgyi's epic seven-deuce play the hand before, another big hand happened straight afterwards. It got folded around to the blinds, where Patrik Antonius completed the small blind with {5-Spades}{5-Diamonds} and Ole Schemion checked {Q-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}.

The flop {3-Spades}{6-Spades}{5-Hearts} gave Antonius middle set and Schemion bottom pair. The Fin bet 100,000 and Schemion called.

A disastrous turn rolled off for Schemion when the {3-Clubs} landed on the turn. Antonius bet 250,000, Schemion raised to 665,000, Antonius three-bet to 1,300,000 and Schemion called after some thought.

The {7-Diamonds} landed on the river and Antonius moved in for his last 1,070,000 into the 2,980,000 pot. Schemion was visibly unpleased with the situation but called it off after taking some time. Antonius showed him the bad news and is now the new chipleader at the final table.

Gyorgyi Jams Seven Deuce and Shows the Bluff

Tomas Jozonis made it 125,000 on the button with the {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades} and Krisztian Gyorgyi in the small blind three-bet to 360,000 with {7-Clubs}{2-Spades}, Jozonis elected to call. Gyorgyi put on his hoodie before the flop fell {Q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} and Gyorgyi continued for 500,000, Jozonis called with the gutshot and nut flush draw.

The {4-Clubs} appeared on the turn and Gyorgyi moved all in for 1.52 million. Jozonis folded and tapped the table, and he was then shown the bluff by the Hungarian.

Gyorgyi high-fived with Ole Schemion and Patrik Antonius, the latter said "this is good for TV." Jozonis was left grinning and Schemion burst out in laughter.

"This is respect, you have to have some balls," Antonius added and Gyorgyi replied "thank you." Antonius continued "this is balls," to which Javier Fernandez said "this is more than balls."

Last but not least, Antonius nailed it with "this is a little bit crazy, too."

Over on the outer table Krisztian Gyorgyi had once again shown pocket aces when he three-bet big and Josip Simunic folded to drop below one million in chips.

Then, David Peters raised to 90,000 on the button and Simunic three-bet all in for what appeared to be 900,000 in the small blind. Gyorgyi reshoved all in from the big blind and Peters folded.

Josip Simunic: {A-Clubs}{J-Spades}
Krisztian Gyorgyi: {J-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}

The board came {K-Hearts}{9-Spades}{3-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{Q-Hearts} and, unlike in other previous big showdowns, Gyorgyi didn't celebrate but exchanged a few words in German with Simunic. The remaining nine players will now combine to one table and tournament staff has announced that they will take the 20-minute break right now before returning to the unofficial final table action.

Stefan Huber shoved under the gun and got it through.

The next hand, action folded to Honglin Jiang in the small blind and he ripped in. Huber immediately called off for about 290,000 but his {j-Diamonds}{10-Spades} trailed {k-Spades}{7-Clubs}. The {5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{6-Spades} flop did nothing but give Jiang the chance to turn Huber dead.

On the contrary, though, Huber grabbed the lead with the {j-Clubs}.

"That's an interesting one," he said with a smile.

The river: {8-Clubs}, completing a straight for Jiang and busting Huber.

On the {4-Spades} turn, Lanini came out leading with a bet of 250,000. Schemion pondered for a short while before shoving and Lanini snap-called it off.

Davor Lanini: {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}
Ole Schemion: {J-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

Lanini needed one of the two remaining aces to survive but the river was the {9-Clubs} to seal his fate. He made his way to the rail in 14th place to collect €35,500.
