Michael Durrer, the PokerStars qualifier from Germany, has just taken two beats and then the miserable walk to the rail.

Michael Durrer - PokerStars qualifier takes €30,000

First, it was Gunnar Rabe, the PokerStars qualifier from Sweden, who doubled through the man from Dusseldorf with ace-ten versus king-queen. Then, when it was Durrer facing Denes Kalo's king-queen, a queen flopped to outdraw ace-jack.

Durrer takes €30,000 for 12th place, but Rabe has now recovered from holding just one blue chip worth 1,000 to sit more comfortably around about 100,000.

Durrer was preceded out of the tournament by Age Spets, from Norway. He was all in pre-flop against Sebastian Ruthenberg and Vladimir Poleshchuk. Poleshchuk bet on the river and Spets didn't show what he had. He merely mucked his hand and left the television table.

And it's all action on the television table -- which you can watch on the EPT Live feed by clicking HERE. David Sonelin, the PokerStars qualifier from Sweden, has just been eliminated by Poleshchuk.

All the money went in on the turn when and ace hit. Sonelin had made top pair, with a five kicker, but the Russian had filled a straight with his king-jack and catapulted into the chip lead. He has more than 600,000 now.
