Level 19 was just minutes old before the final table had its first casualty with Mikita Badziakouski the man to fall first, with Germany’s Manig Loeser sending the Belarusian player to the rail.
Badziakouski had dropped down to just over 700,000 in chips and moved all-in from the button with Loeser re-raising all-in to isolate from the small blind and the cards were turned over.
