With the board reading 9?8?5?, Alex Keating, who recently won an EPT title in Event #33: €2,700 EPT Second Chance No-Limit Hold'em, found himself all in and at risk against Paulius Plausinaitis, who finished runner up to Keating in the same event.
Alex Keating: 10?10?
Paulius Plausinaitis: 9?6?
Keating was ahead with an overpair against Plausinaitis, who held top pair and a gutshot straight draw. Plausinaitis' straight draw came through on the 7? turn and the Q? river was a brick. Keating was eliminated from the tournament and Plausinaitis collected the last of his chips.
