Madalin Costin, one of the few shorter stacks, opened to 550,000, leaving a sole 25,000 chip behind. Seated right next to him, Matthew Skeadas made the call from the Hi-jack, before the remaining players folded.
Costin bet his last 25,000 on the 8♣2♣6♠ flop, and Skeadas, of course, made the call.
Madalin Costin: Q♦10♦
Matthew Skeadas: 10♣10♥
Costin was drawing extremely thin, and the A♣3♦ runout sealed his fate. He was eliminated in nineteenth place for £1,090, and the floor started to conduct a redraw for the final two tables.
Matthew Skeadas: 1,925,000
Madalin Costin: 0
