Tsugunari Toma Eliminated in 5th Place (€78,910)
Tsugunari Toma raised from under the gun and Salomon Azria moved all in from the big blind with a short stack of around 1,600,000. Toma called and players flipped their cards.
Salomon Azria: A♦J♠
Tsugunari Toma: A♣4♥
The board ran out 7♥4♦6♦J♣2♥. Azria paired his jack to win the pot and double his stack, leaving Toma short with just 650,000.
The next hand, Toma was in the big blind and so, with his ante, had around half of his stack already in the middle. Pierre May raised to 500,000, Azria called in the small blind and Toma called in the big blind, leaving just 25,000 behind.
The flop came K♠J♣Q♥. Azria bet 300,000, Toma threw in his last 25,000 and May also called. Azria and May then checked it down on the K♥ turn and K♣ river. All three players revealed their hands.
Toma had 10♥2♠ for ten high, Pierre May had A♠8♠ for ace high, and Azria turned over J♥8♥ for kings-full-of-jacks to win the pot.
Toma was eliminated from the tournament in fifth place for €78,910.
