Marcel Koller Eliminated in 12th Place (�20,400)
At this point there was a deafening crunching noise in the tournament area; certain press members tensed up in case it was a repeat of the shenanigans at EPT Berlin, but it was just the speaker system malfunctioning. Over at the next table Alain Medesan lamented, "I raise and automatically everything goes wrong. I no more raise."
So back to the feature table, and Baekke flat-called the raise. Onwards.
They saw a turn and Baekke now bet out 160,000. Koller moved all in, Baekke instacalled, and they were on their backs.
Baekke: for a turned gutshot straight
Koller: for flopped top pair and was already wandering off muttering, "F***ing...."
River:
Koller came back to shake hands, and he will not be making back-to-back final tables.
