We arrived a bit late with Christoph Vogelsang (small blind) having already had 225,000 committed and just 40,000 behind. Big blind Christopher Kruk was all in.
Presumably, a 3rd player was involved in the pot opening, but by the time we arrived, the action was already back on Vogelsang. He looked around for a bit and eventually called off the remaining 40,000 he had as well.

Pascal Hartman raised to 52,000 from the cutoff and Jake Cody moved all in from the small blind. Hartmann called for his last 616,000 and the cards were tabled.

Several players were short and it was Conor Beresford that ended up as the one to miss out on the last three tables.
Marc-Olivier Perrault open-shoved from the small blind and Beresford glanced over at the other tables before calling it off from the big blind for approximately 340,000.

Five German-speaking players were seated over on table two but that number was reduced by one when two of them clashed in a preflop all in. Markus Durnegger had raised and called the three-bet shove of Stefan Schillhabel for what appeared to be 700,000.
It was a classic race with the ace-king for Schillhabel and the for Durneggger. The board came and Schillhabel failed to improve, joining the rail in 23rd place for €38,350.
Marc-Olivier Perrault raised from early position and was called by Pascal Hartmann in the small blind and Luis Rodriguez Cruz in the big blind. The flop fell and the action checked to Perrault, who continued for 88,000. Only Hartmann called before the duo checked down the turn and river.
