The action started with Thomas Holm raising to 8,000 from middle position. Dan Shak then bumped it up to 23,000 from the hijack as the table folded back around to Holm. He thought for a moment before making the call before both players watched the flop come down ![]()
![]()
.
Holm checked his option as Shak reached for his chips before sliding out 35,000. The bet was called and the dealer produced the
on the turn. Once again Holm checked. Shak reached for his chips and bet out 75,000 before waiting on Holm to make his next move.
That would take almost five minutes! Holm sat back in his chair as he stared down Shak. Then put his hands on his hand and stared at the board. Eventually he moved all in for his remaining 178,000 in chips and was snap called.
Shak: ![]()
Holm:![]()
Holm was in front with the two pair but would need to dodge a diamond or a king. Just like that the dealer peeled the
on the river to give Shak the flush and award him the monster pot.

Kevin MacPhee's registration slip was found in the bust out section, so we headed over to his former table to find out what had happened. He had a huge stack just minutes ago after all. While we could straight away tell that it was Martin Kabrhel who had MacPhee's former chips, we inquired with Ankush Mandavia as to what happend because Kabrhel was in a hand.
Mandavia told us that Kabrhel had opened under the gun and two players called before Oleksii Khoroshenin squeezed to 20,000. Right next to EPT Vienna's champion was EPT Berlin's champion (and EPT London's runner up) Kevin MacPhee who four bet to "forty something" according to Mandavia. Kabrhel then five bet to 79,500 and action folded to MacPhee who pushed. Kabrhel made the call.
MacPhee had pocket queens while Kabrhel showed kings. The five community cards were of no help to MacPhee who tweeted the following not much later:

Busto. QQ into KK of Kahbrel for 100 bbs. Maybe could find a fold vs other players, but his reputation got me.Follow @KevinMacPhee
Benjamin Pollak and Sebastian Pauli have also been eliminated, but no details on their bust outs.
