Angel Funes Rios Eliminated in 9th Place

The clock has been stopped with 11:17 remaining in level 26 and the night comes to a slightly earlier end. Jean-Francois Regis had shoved all in for 19 big blinds from early position and the action folded to short stack Angel Funes Rios. The Spaniard checked his cards, then grabbed a T-100,000 chip from the middle of his stack and tossed it into the pot.

Funes Rios was in fact trying to limp from the button, but was since forced to call it off and suddenly realized his mistake. The players in the blinds mucked their cards and it was a flip for the tournament life:

Funes Rios:JsKd

Regis: 9c9d

It was all over by the turn of a Ad board and with that, the final eight for tomorrow were found. As a little consolation, the Spaniard takes home €5,130 for his efforts but may get a few nightmares from the very last hand still.

With that, the live reporting for today is done and the final chip counts will be available shortly.
