Nível 26 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Sindre Hansen opened to 125,000 from the button and Jorge Ufano called from his short stack from the big blind. Ufano check-called for 75,000 on the A♠K♣9♣ flop but then check-folded on the 8♣ turn when Hansen put in a stack of T-100,000 chips.

The following hand, Ufano jammed for 390,000 and Eliot Hudon called from the big blind.

Jorge Ufano: A♣4♠
Eliot Hudon: A♠J♥

Hudon hit his jack on the J♦9♥2♥ flop to leave Ufano drawing extremely thin. The K♦ turn marked his elimination before the 9♦ completed the board.

Nível 26 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Tom Middleton moved all in for 465,000 in the hijack as action went on Dimitar Danchev, who asked for a count and spent a few moments looking around at the other stacks. He eventually folded, as did button Owen Dodd, but Gonzalo Almeida called in the small blind.

Tom Middleton: A♣7♦
Gonzalo Almeida: A♥K♦

Middleton was dominated and found no help on the 2♣10♠4♠J♥5♣ board to hit the rail in 22nd place.

With Middleton's elimination, Dimitar Danchev is the last remaining EPT champion still in the hunt for a second title.

Nível 25 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Mathias Siljander opened to 80,000 second to act before Sindre Hansen three-bet to 240,000 from the button. Siljander responded with a reraise to 560,000 and he called as the slightly bigger stack when Hansen five-bet jammed for 2,040,000.

Sindre Hansen: A♦A♥
Mathias Siljander: K♦K♠

It was the ultimate cooler and Hansen's rockets shot him up the chip counts after remaining best on the 10♦8♣7♥10♣A♣ runout.

Nível 25 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Owen Dodd raised to 80,000 on the button and Gonzalo Almeida called in the small blind.

The flop came A♦2♠3♥ and Dodd continued for 60,000. Almeida called.

The 2♥ fell on the turn and Dodd bet another 175,000. Almeida again called to see the 8♥ river.

Dodd then bet 250,000 and Almeida snap-called. Dodd slammed down K♥7♥ for a running flush and Almeida mucked.

Youssef Zereg Eliminated in 23rd Place (€40,000)

zedmaster84

Nível 25 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Youssef Zereg open-shoved 555,000 from the cutoff and Dimitar Danchev made the call on the button.

Youssef Zereg: A♠Q♠
Dimitar Danchev: A♥10♥

The A♣10♦J♥ flop saw Danchev jump ahead with two pair, but Zereg still had outs. That changed on the 10♠ turn, however, as Danchev's full house locked up the pot for him.

The 7♣ river did not matter anymore and Zereg was consequentially eliminated in 23rd place.

Terry Vlastos Eliminated in 24th Place (€34,800)

zedmaster84

Nível 25 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Gonzalo Almeida raised to 80,000 from the hijack and Terry Vlastos made it 200,000 to go on the button. The action folded back to Almeida, who put Vlastos all in for his 845,000 chips.

Vlastos depleted all of his time banks before eventually finding a call for his tournament life.

Terry Vlastos: A♠Q♠
Gonzalo Almeida: A♦Q♣

It was looking like just another chop pot, but the 6♣K♣8♣ flop brought a sweat. The 7♣ turn brought in the flush for Almeida and secured Valstos' departure.

The meaningless 4♦ river was dealt while Vlastos was left sitting with his head in his hands, taking a few moments before getting up to collect his payout.

The 4♦ fell on the turn and Kaufmann bet another 100,000. Worthington-Leese again called and the Q♠ fell on the river.

Kaufmann then bet 170,000, only this time Worthington-Leese came back with a raise to 350,000. Kaufmann went deep into the tank, burning five time bank cards and considering the decision for several minutes until he folded.

zedmaster84

Nível 25 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

As the second-shortest at the stream table, Terry Vlastos raised to 80,000 from an early position. It folded to Anatoly Korochenskiy in the small blind and he jammed for 315,000 to earn a call from Vlastos.

Anatoly Korochenskiy: 6♠6♥
Terry Vlastos: Q♠J♠

The 8♠8♦7♥ flop kept Korochenskiy ahead but the J♣ turn reversed the lead. None of the two remaining outs came on the 2♥ river and Korochenskiy was eliminated in 25th place to set up the final three tables.

Slimane Mameche: A♣9♥
Aleksejs Ponakovs: 6♥5♥

Mameche was ahead and improved to a pair of aces on the A♦8♥3♠ flop; however, the 4♠ turn gave Ponakovs outs to the straight.

Mameche called for a ten, but the 2♥ river gave Ponakovs the straight the seal the bust-out.

Worthington-Leese Cracks Kostadinov's Aces

Nível 25 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Aleksejs Ponakovs raised to 80,000 on the button before Kostadin Kostadinov three-bet jammed his 545,000 chips in the middle from the small blind. Big blind Leo Worthington-Leese then also went all in, covering both opponents.

Ponakovs asked for both counts but ultimately made the fold with 30 big blinds behind, leaving the other two players to show down.

Kostadin Kostadinov: A♠A♦
Leo Worthington-Leese: 9♦9♣

Kostadinov's aces remained in great shape on the 10♠K♣K♦7♥ runout, but the 9♠ river saw Worthington-Leese hit one of the two nines he needed for the win.

Kostadinov amicably said his goodbyes before leaving the tournament in 27th place.
