Action in Event 4 kept up a pretty regular pace as some of the shorter stacks that started the final table were eliminated. First to go was Markus Cara, who started with 150K.

Then Timothy Vukson managed to double up immediately before the first break of the final table, but was still relatively short compared with some of the others and departed in 6th place.

Following this most of the remaining players had healthy stacks, but the blinds were putting pressure on everyone. It took an amazing hand between two healthy stacks to get to the next elimination.

Preflop action put all of the chips into play between Olivier Courcelles and Jay K. Cards were flipped, and Olivier held Queen of Clubs Queen of Spades Ace of Hearts 4 of Spades but was behind Jay’s Ace of Diamonds Ace of Spades Jack of Clubs 3 of Clubs. The flop saw the Queen of Diamonds hit the felt – but also saw the case Ace of Clubs to keep Jay well in front. The matter seemed decided when a blank 8 of Clubs came out on the turn… but then came the river. We already saw the case Ace on the flop – and on the river – the Queen of Hearts to give Jay the top boat – but quads to Olivier.

5th place: Jay K, $1450
