Dimitar Danchev Eliminated in 16th Place (€53,000)
Right as Leo Worthington-Leese was being eliminated at the other outer table, Aleksejs Ponakovs raised to 120,000 in the cutoff before Dimitar Danchev three-bet to 310,000 on the button. Ponakovs then moved all in and Danchev snap-called for 1,500,000.
Dimitar Danchev: A♠K♣
Aleksejs Ponakovs: A♦3♦
Danchev had Ponakovs dominated as the flop came 4♦K♠K♥ to give him trips. "You're almost as dead as the other guy," tablemate Lorenzo Arduini, referencing Worthington-Leese's bustout, told Ponakovs.
The J♦ fell on the turn and a murmur went around the table as Ponakovs picked up a flush draw. The 9♦ came on the river to complete his flush and send Danchev, the last remaining past EPT champion, crashing out of the tournament.
The remaining 15 players are now drawing for seats at the final two tables.
