Big Hands:
Espen Moen Eliminate in Eighth Place ($59,020)
Espen Moen moved all-in from middle position for 325,000. Daivd Peters called from the button.
Moen showed pocket threes and Peters showed pocket fives. Moen was in deep trouble and was going to need to hit his two-outer to stay alive.
Unfortnately for Moen, the borad ran out 9A106A. Moen couldn’t find his two-outer and will take home just over $59,000 for his eighth place finish. After the knockout of Moen, Peters has climbed to 2,325,000 and looks to be the chip leader.
Mehul Chaudhari and Matthew Lupton Eliminated on the Same Hand
Marcel Vonk raised to 100,000 from the cutoff and Mehul Chaudhari moved all-in from the button for 680,000. Matthew Lupton was in the big blind who moved all-in over the top of that and Vonk made the call pretty quickly.
Lupton showed AK, Chaudhari showed 44, and Vonk showed QQ.
The board came out J81086 and Vonk won both the side pot with him and Lupton and the main pot for all three players. Vonk now has 4,200,000 and is the new chip leader.
Chaudhari finished in seventh place since he had less chips than Lupton and earns $77,633. Lupton finishes in sixth place and earns $103,061.
Henrik Tollefsen Eliminated in Fifth Place ($138,107)
David Peters raised to 110,000 from the button and Henrik Tollefsen made it 270,000 from the small blind. After Paul Kerr folded his big blind, Peters thought for a half-minute before moving all-in.
Tollefsen thought for a few moments before making the call. Peters showed K10 and was slightly behind Tollefsen’s AQ.
Peters moved into the lead on the flop of 210J and Tollefsen got out of seat and got ready to leave. The 10 on the turn, gave Peters trips and left Tollefsen drawing dead.
The 7 on the river was meaningless and Tollefsen left the tournament area, while Peters is up to 5,500,000.
