Stefan Schillhabel claimed the HK $250,000 6-Max title earlier this week but won't be going back-to-back. Schillhabel has fallen and is joined on the rail by fellow countryman Steffen Sontheimer, Wiktor Malinowski, and Mustapha Kanit.
Erik Seidel will have to wait to catch Daniel Negreanu at the top of the all-time money list. Seidel was getting short over the course of the last level and has been eliminated. Former champion Koray Aldemir joins Seidel on the rail along with Kitson Kho, Stanly Choi, and Kings Consulting President Winfred Yu.
There looked to be about 300,000 already piled up in the middle when Adrian Attenborough moved all-in on the river of a board. His heads-up opponent, Dietrich Fast, went into the tank sizing up Attenborough's shove worth 475,000.
A couple moments went by and Fast tossed in a chip. Attenborough tabled , missing a flopped flush draw and fast turned over to send his opponent to the rail and take down a huge pot.
We arrived at the table to see a short-stacked Nick Petrangelo all-in and at risk against Adrian Mateos. There appeared to be a small side pot but the dealer was already pushing that towards Mateos. A flop lay in the middle and their hands were tabled.
Petrangelo:
Mateos:
Petrangelo needed help but a run out spelled the end for the American pro.
