6.33pm: Calonnec eliminated; new chip leader
Atanas Malinov limped preflop and then Franck Calonnec shoved for 600,000 in the blinds, Malinov called with A♦9♠ and Calonnec's 6♣6♦ was racing for the Frenchman's tournament life.
The board came 7♦3♦9♥K♠7♠ and Malinov won the pot. The Bulgarian has 5.4 million now.
6.17pm: No dinner break
Tournament director Luca Vivaldi has just informed both the players and the press that there will be no dinner break. Instead there will a normal 15-minute break followed by two more levels. At that point, if the final table has not been reached then play will end for the night.
The reason for this is that the players have already had two very long days and that by the start of level 29, the average stack with just eight players would be 45 big blinds. Given that the tournament has been moving at a fairly brisk pace, the floor staff feel comfortable in finishing relatively earlier tonight and restarting tomorrow at 12.00pm CET with however many players are left.
6.00pm: Two more gone
Bartosz Zialkowski and Cedric Demore have both been eliminated to leave just 18 players left now in the Eureka4 Prague Main Event.
5.41pm: Pyzara eliminated
Kacper Pyzara shoved for his last 400,000 preflop with T♣9♣ and Balasz Botond made the call with A♦J♣. The board came 8♠8♥5♥3♥K♥ and Botond's ace-high was still good, Botond now has three million. Just 20 players remain.
5.30pm: Level 26 - 25,000/50,000 (5,000)
The tournament is now on the sixth level of the day.
5.24pm: Malinov wins big against Charmpilas
Periklis Charmpilas fired a bet of 105,000 on a 9♣3♦5♠ flop and Atanas Malinov made the call to see the K♠ on the turn. Charmpilas bet again, this time to the tune of 185,000 and Malinov called once more. The river was the 5♥ and Charmpilas checked, Malinov bet 575,000 and Charmpilas made the call.
The Bulgarian turned over K♣Q♥ and scooped a huge pot. He has about three million now while Charmpilas dropped to 1.1 million.
5.10pm: Chiva penalised
Gabriel Chiva just received a one-round penalty for exposing his hand. With action having already happened Periklis Charmpilas had mucked his cards but accidentally thrown them past the dealer and into Chiva's hand. Charmpilas told a member of the floor his hand and she checked for the cards but did not see the ones the Greek player had told her. Chiva complained and then turned over two aces claiming this had been his hand. As a result for deliberately exposing cards, the Romanian got a one-round penalty.
5.00pm: Przysucha out
Atanas Malinov raised to 80,000 preflop and was called by Olivier Decamps before Jan Przysucha moved all in for about 600,000 behind him. Malinov moved in as well and Decamps quickly folded.
Przysucha: A♥3♣
Malinov: 9♥9♣
The board came T♥4♠J♠8♦8♠ and the Czech player was eliminated in 23rd place. Cezar Chivulescu and Ivan Sebeledi are also both out.
