As we were busy writing about the last hand he lost, Justin Bonomo got knocked out.
Bonomo clashed in a big pot with Sam Greenwood. While Bonomo had kings in the last hand only to lose to aces, this time he had ace-king and he would go under against Greenwood's pocket tens.
Bonomo out in seventh place, which means the tournament is on the bubble. Six players remain, only five awaits a reward for a day of poker.
Seated under the gun plus one, Mikita Badziakouski min-raised to 20,000. Justin Bonomo over in the hijack called before action was on big blind Viacheslav Buldygin.
Buldygin thought about it for a bit before saying "Yes, I can go all in" as he moved his chips in.
Badziakouski thought about it for a bit too before he as well shoved all in. His all-in over the top was for 195,000 and Bonomo called instantly.
PokerStars EPT President Edgar Stuchly just came by to inform the players that, upon request, another €25,500 Single-Day High Roller will be organized tomorrow. The same starting time (2pm), same starting stack (100,000) and the same level duration (30 minutes) will be in place.
From first position, Jean-Noel Thorel opened for 18,000. Two positions over sat Adrian Mateos on the button and he three-bet to 50,000. Both blinds released but Thorel instantly announced all in. Mateos wasn't overly excited calling it off, but did reluctantly toss in some chips to call.

The board ran out . Thorel turned out to have 278,000, just more than what Mateos had. After finishing runner-up in yesterday's tournament for €260,300, now no spot on the final table for the Spanish EPT Grand Final champion.
At the same time, over on the other table, Sergi Reichax lost his last chips. Just like that, down to 8 and a final table.
