Nitsche Eliminated Just Shy of Day 3

Frank Visser

Level 27 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Jonathan "Proudflop" Proudfoot raised to 184,000 from middle position and Dominik "Bounatirou" Nitsche made the call from the big blind. Proudfoot then continued for 105,160 on the 4?5?4? flop after a check from Nitsche, and Nitsche once again called.

The third four appeared with the 4? on the turn, and Nitsche checked once more to his opponent. Proudfoot then put 149,600 more into the pot, after which Nitsche went all-in for 557,016 chips. Proudfoot quickly called and the cards were tabled.

Dominik "Bounatirou" Nitsche: A?10?
Jonathan "Proudflop" Proudfoot: 9?9?

Nitsche would need to hit one of his hole cards to stay alive in the WCOOP Main Event, but the 8? on the river assured his exit instead. Only 43 players are now still in contention, with 40 making it through to Day 3.
