Among the current big stacks with two tables left are Joao Simao, Jean-Noel Thorel and Leon Tsoukernik. Thorel sent Alex Foxen to the rail after a straddle of Tsoukernik ended in his demise with a flush against the nut flush of Thorel. Tsoukernik himself doubled through Sergio Aido at blinds of 35,000/70,000 when his pocket queens won a flip versus ace king in style, two queens appeared on the flop to lock it up with a bang.
Will Simao win his first big title after racking up a ton of deep runs in the last few months or will another High Roller regular add more glory to his poker resume? Below is the redraw of the last two tables.
