Sylvain Loosli jammed for the 140,000 in the hijack and Tomas Kolarik did so for slightly more on the button.
Sylvain Loosli: 
Tomas Kolarik: 
The 
board ensured that the kicker played and Kolarik was left with around four blinds.
Those last few bits went into the middle shortly after and Kolarik was looked up by Cedric Massaro.
Tomas Kolarik: 
Cedric Massaro: 
The 
flop left Kolarik on very thin ice but he gained some hope with the 
turn. However, the 
river spelled the end for the Czech.
There was no happy end for Loosli either as he bowed out during the next few hands before the tournament went on a scheduled 20-minute break.
