Ismael Bojang has been pacing back and forth around the room, as he is playing both the PLO-8 tournament and the final flight of THE COLOSSUS. The experienced German is pulling the multi-table gambit off, as he's keeping his stack afloat in both tournaments.
The PLO-8 tournament is down to its last 19 players, so Bojang might keep that seat more occupied going forward, inching closer to a cash in this tournament as well.
With the clock showing 180 players and 171 of them finishing in the money, dealers were instructed to stop dealing after the hand to initiate hand-over-hand.
However, once the exact tally was made after the hand, it turned out there were exactly 171 players left! No bubble action, no hand-over-hand, but all remaining players secured a cash of at least €802 just like that.
Thunderous cheers sounded from the room and people clapped in excitement over the unexpected turn of events.
Hannes Neurauter raised to 6,000 from the cutoff and the button called. The player in the small blind went all in for 45,000, which brought the action to Dominik Matejka in the big blind.
Matejka reshoved all in for 155,000 and Neurauter took a moment before calling off his entire stack of 140,000. The button, facing three all-ins, quickly got out of the way.

Small Blind:
The all but sealed it and Neurauter dragged it after the turn and river. The German skyrocketed to the chip lead,
while Matejka was left with just five big blinds.
After Karel Novotny had opened from the cutoff, Vladyslav Kovalenko three-bet to 20,500 from the small blind. Novotny four-bet shoved 72,500 and Kovalenko called it off without much hesitation.

Kovalenko was in a world of hurt and didn't find any help on . He was left with seven big blinds on his second bullet.
