Anton Wigg Eliminated in 7th Place (€96,200)


The first hand back after the break has led to further fireworks and a brutal bad beat.
Anton Wigg opened to 125,000 from early position, before facing a three-bet to 375,000 from Patrik Jaros on the button. Action folded back to Wigg, who promptly four-bet to 625,000.
Jaros thought it through for a bit, before five-bet jamming with the covering stack. Wigg quickly called for his 1,920,000 stack, leading Jaros to exclaim "Oh dear!!"
Anton Wigg: K?K?
Patrik Jaros: A?8?
Jaros pleaded with the dealer for an ace, and as if from the heavens, the flop came A?10?6?. Jaros said "Yes, hold!", while Wigg looked forlorn.
The J?9? turn and river were not the king Wigg now needed, and Jaros took a huge pot to take a commanding lead in the tournament.
Wigg stood up shaking his head, in disbelief at what had just transpired, and the dangerous Swede had to take his leave.
