Three Players Out

Level 29: 60,000/120,000 (120,000)
Entries: 18/1,460

Jorgen Jessen was involved in a three-way pot with his short stack of 5 big blinds committed with J♠9♠. Kevin Rothlisberger had his last 1 million committed with A♣K♠ while John Forsman had both players covered with 8♣8♠. The A♠A♦7♦Q♥4♠ ran out on the board to eliminate Jessen while Rothlisberger also doubled through Forsman.

Shortly after, Sven Meschede lost his short stack when his A♥3♥ got nowhere against the A♦K♣ held by Petteri Miettinen after the 4♥Q♦7♠4♠4♦ ran out on the board.

Maxime Delhommeau with Q♥J♣ was delivered a bad beat moments later by Indre Stanaityte with A♣K♠ after Delhommeau had his stack committed on the 6♠10♦Q♣ flop. The K♦ turn flipped the tables and Delhommeau was on the rail after the 10♥ river completed the board.

Set of Rockets for Padron

Level 29: 60,000/120,000 (120,000)
Entries: 21/1,460

Marcos Perez Padron three-bet jammed from the blinds for 1.75 million and was called by Sven Meschede who opened from late position.

Marcos Perez Padron: A♠A♣
Sven Meschede: J♠10♠

The J♦3♦K♠ flop gave Meschede some hope but Padron improved to a set on the A♦ turn and no miracle to the Broadway came for Meschede on the 6♣ river.

Sven Meschede – 4 million
Marcos Perez Padron – 3.7 million
