The World Series Of Poker Europe (WSOPE) bracelet winner’s AQ ended Greenwood’s deep run despite holding better hole cards (AK) than his opponent when the turn presented a Queen. Viacheslav Buldygin left in fifth position after losing a considerable amount of chips in back-to-back hands. His last big blind went to Jamil Wakil. Buldygin took home a pay cheque of €91,000. 

Chris Brewer was sent packing in the fourth place by Wakil after the former was left short stacked in the game. Despite claiming both Buldygin and Brewer’s stacks, the first player to finish in podium position was Wakil’s K7 was considered a favourite against the Suvarna’s Q9. But the latter made two pairs and showed Wakil the exit door.
