1:13 a.m.: Slav Sariyski eliminated in ninth

Shortly after Level 33 began, Slav Sariyski open-raised all in for 1,680,000 from middle position, and it folded to Jose Carlos Garcia at the button who asked for a count, then after a brief little bit of thought called the raise. The blinds folded, and the players tabled their hands:

Sariyski: 4♠4♣Garcia: 6♥6♠

It was a nasty spot for Sariyski, and five cards later -- T♣A♠T♦2♠J♦ -- he was out in ninth.

Players are bagging their chips now. We'll be back in a short time with a recap of this exciting Day 3 that played the entire way down from 98 players to the overall eight.

Nine-handed action

12:37 a.m.: Garcia getting active again

Players are operating cautiously in this Level 32, not desirous to risk missing the general table and an opportunity for the €491,000 first prize tomorrow's winner will claim. After a protracted spell of mostly folding while nursing what has now become a brief stack, Jose Carlos Garcia was getting active again, as evidenced by a few hands with Mario Lopez.

In the primary Lopez raised to 400,000 from middle position, Garcia raised to 800,000 from a few seats over, and Lopez called. Both checked the 7♠7♥T♠ flop, then when Lopez led for 350,000 on the J♥ turn, Garcia waited a few minutes then pushed all in. Lopez thought of a minute himself before folding.

The next hand saw Lopez raise again to 400,000 and Garcia just call this time. The flop came 3♣4♣T♠, and Lopez check-called Garcia' bet of 725,000. The turn brought the 6♠ and another check from Lopez, and when Garcia bet again, Lopez folded.

Lopez still has about 11.5 million while Garcia has chipped as much as about 5 million.

12:13 a.m.: Sariyski shoves get through

Slav Sariyski just open-shoved twice -- once from the button, then from the cutoff -- getting no callers either time. He's up around 4 million now, still a number of the short stacks with Kondah Abdelhadi and Jose Carlos Garcia. Meanwhile Jonn Forst still leads.

11:27 p.m.: Esa Karttunen out in 10th

Esa Karttunen just lost his short stack to move out in 10th after his K♥J♠ couldn't catch as much as Jonn Forst's A♦5♦ on a 3♣7♣6♣8♦T♠ board.

Down to nine now, there'll be a temporary pause to redraw to a single table, after which they'll play all the way down to the offical final table of eight.

11:14 p.m.: Forst earns huge double through Garcia, claims lead

A huge hand just happened between the German Jonn Forst and the Polish player Jose Carlos Garcia.

The pair battled to the river with the board coming A♣J♣5♣8♠2♥. Forst had begun the hand raising the button and Garcia was playing from the large blind, but Garcia took the lead postflop, then by the river was shoving all in. Forst thought only a few beats after which called, tabling A♠8♦ for 2 pair. Garcia didn't wish to turn his hand but was made to -- T♠3♣.

Suddenly Forst is up around 17 million and the brand new chip leader while Garcia plunges to about 4 million.

11:04 p.m.: David Stocker eliminated in 11th

Jose Carlos Garcia raised to 350,000 from the button and David Stocker called from the massive blind. The flop came 8♣4♥6♥. Stocker checked, Garcia bet 400,000, Stocker pushed all in for around 2.5 million, and Garcia called.

Stocker had 7♠6♠ for middle pair and a straight draw while Garcia had 9♠8♥ for a greater pair of eights. The turn was the K♥, then when the river brought the 5♥ Stocker pounded the table, appearing for a moment he thought he'd won along with his straight. Then he saw Garcia's flush and realized he was out in 11th.

Garcia is back to about 14 million after that one.

10:56 p.m.: Sennhauser's big call earns double through Garcia

Jose Carlos Garcia opened with a raise to 340,000 from middle position and Simon Peter Sennhauser defended his small blind with a decision. The flop came 9♦T♠3♦. Sennhauswer bet 580,000, Garcia raised to 1.16 million, and Sennhauser called. The turn brought the T♣ and a check-call from Sennhauser of Garcia's bet of 850,000.

The river was the A♥, and when Sennhauser checked, Garcia declared he was all in and after some thought Sennhauser called.

Sennhauser had Q♥T♦ for trip tens, while Garcia's tabled hand was whisked away too quickly to look. That brings Sennhauser as much as 12 million or so, Garcia right down to 10.5 million, and puts Mario Lopez back within the lead for the moment.

David Stocker was 11th of eleven to start play after dinner, and shortly was open-pushing his short stack of 1.2 million all in and getting called by Simon Peter Sennhauser sitting to his left.

"I think you have got me beat," said Stocker before turning over 8♠8♣, but he was racing with Sennhauser's K♥J♥.

The flop came 9♠T♥8♦, giving Stocker a collection but Sennhauser a straight draw, and after the Q♦ fell at the turn Sennhauser leaned forward in his seat. He fell back, though, after the Q♥ river that gave Stocker a winning full house, then rapped the table while congratulating his opponent.

Stocker is as much as about 2.5 million now while Sennhauser has about 6.6 million.
