Konstantin Arber opened to 40,000 from the Button. Action eventually folded to Henrik Veldhoen; Arber could see that his opponent had a decision. “Go ahead, I already have the calling chip in my hand,” Arber speech-played, waving a blue 25,000 chip. Veldhoen shared a laugh with his German compatriot before moving all in for roughly 225,000. Being a man of his word, Arber snap-called.
Henrik Veldhoen: 10♥10♠
Konstantin Arber: A♦7♣
“I have the nuts,” Veldhoen joked as he proudly revealed his pocket pair. “Sorry,” Arber said as the flop came 6♥K♣7♠. He had a gut feeling that he would win the hand, and that became the case, as the board completed with A♥3♥.
As such, Veldhoen became the player who just missed out on the final table. The German should still be happy with his €3,150 payout for tenth place. Prior to this hand, the short-stacked Gabi Livshitz had managed to double up twice.
The nine-handed final table is now set; stay tuned for the final table seat draw and chip counts!
