The second player to depart was anonymous German player ASSO, who moved all-in with 5 5 from early position for his last 2.295m chips. Fellow short-stack Erik Polluveer from Estonia woke up with K K and also moved all-in with an almost identical stack. However Yann Lormel also made the call with A K to put both players at risk.
The 7 Q 8 3 4 board blanked everyone, trebling up Erik, while ASSO was sent to the rail in 8th for €7,500.
