Julien Sitbon Eliminated in 23rd Place (£22,500)
Jamil Wakil opened to 35,000 in middle position and Roman Hrabec and Julien Sitbon both defended out of the blinds.
The flop of checked through and Hrabec led out for 105,000 on the turn. Sitbon raised to 315,000 from the next seat to leave himself with just 45,000. Wakil used through a time bank before three-bet jamming, prompting a snap-fold from Hrabec and an agonized sigh from Sitbon.
"Why do you bet this, bro?! You killed me!" Sitbon moaned to Hrabec before turning his attention to Wakil. "Tell me you have so I can fold. You don't have a draw here. I just have a ten. holy shit."
After plenty of deliberation and squirming, Sitbon made the call.

Wakil did indeed have a set of fives and had Sitbon drawing dead with top pair before the meaningless bricked off on the river to mark the Frenchman's elimination.
