Level 22: 4,000/8,000 (8,000)
PokerListings caught up with a hand that already had a massive pot built up of around 500,000 with the 7 7 9 8 on the board after the turn when Bas de Laat jammed for about 400,000. Victor Allain called off for nearly 200,000 and the cards were turned over.
Victor Allain: A A
Bas de Laat: J J
Allain was in good shape but still had to fade six outs. De Laat was unable to get what he needed for a straight or full house with the Q completing the board on the river and the dealer awarded Allain a massive pot of nearly 1 million. There are a ton of chips at that table with Brian Calleja also holding a huge stack.
Meanwhile, Cristiano Ruiu, Jordi Ruiz, and Cristiano Blanco, and Athanasios Theodoropoulos were all eliminated at other tables to leave 72 players remaining in the field.
Victor Allain - 950,000
Brian Calleja - 860,000
Bas de Laat - 200,000
