Niveau 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

We spotted Ana Marquez on the rail and she told us that she had raised to 2,000 from the cutoff, Brian Yoon had three-bet to 5,500 from the small blind and Sean Ragozzini four-bet to 15,000 from the big blind. Marquez only had 16,000 behind and moved all on. Yoon folded. Marquez held but was up against the of Ragozzini, and with no help coming on the board, she was eliminated.

Heading over to see how many chips Ragozzini had, he was involved in an all in with Fabian Quoss for the German's last 11,300 chips.

Sean Ragozzini:
Fabian Quoss:

Quoss flopped a pair on the board, but Ragozzini was still in the lead. Quoss improved to trips on the turn, but Ragozzini could still hit a spade on the river to eliminate another player. Fortunately for Quoss it was the and he doubled up.
