Michael Eiler Implodes
Level 16: 2,000-4,000, 500 ante
When it comes to putting your money in the middle, it almost seems second nature for the former EPT Champion and Sunday Million winner Michael Eiler. His uber-aggressive style has its merits, but also its downfalls!
Michael Eiler comes into the pot with a standard raise and both blinds call. The flop is 9
9
8
and Marko Neumann leads with a bet and Eiler calls. On the turn we see the 5 and Neumann leads once more, but this time Eiler moves all-in. Neumann calls and Eiler knows he is in serious trouble.
Neumann: K K
Eiler: T 6
Turn: 3
Eiler has blown a gasket and Neumann now has 800,000 chips.

Matt Kay Eliminated by Eugene Katchalov
Level 16: 2,000-4,000, 500 ante
Matt Kay's WPT Vienna is over in a cooler against Eugene Katchalov. Both players flopped sets on a flop of Tx 9x 8x. Katchalov had a set of tens and Kay a set of nines.
"Why do all the top players in the world always have the top sets," we said.
"It's because they flop top sets that they are the best players in the world," said Benjamin Lehrer
Katchalov ~ 385,000

Moorman is Out!
Level 16: 2,000-4,000, 500 ante
Chris Moorman started the day second in chips and has left two places shy of the money. Marko Neumann was the man who eliminated him after flopping a set of fours on a Tx 4x 2x flop. The money went in on the turn 5x with Moorman having less than 200,000. The set of fours held and Neumann now has 500,000 chips.

Wilinofsky is on Fire
Level 16: 2,000-4,000, 500 ante
Somebody get a hose because Benjamin Wilinofsky is on fire at table 33. He is a one man wrecking machine and the latest player to be laid to waste is David Vamplew. The Scotsman woke up with Tx Tx in the hijack, Wilinofsky woke up with Qx Qx, on the button, and after a raising war Vamplew was sent to the rail just shy of a little bit of cash.
Wilinofsky ~ 680,000

Badecker: A 9
Rettenmaier: A 8
The board ran out with a nine on it and Rettenmaier was out.
Badecker ~ 280,000

Andy Frankenberger Doubles Up
Level 16: 2,000-4,000, 500 ante
Our WPT Player of the year Andy Frankenberger has doubled up. As he was tucking into a rather meaty breakfast he told us that he was as low as 75,000 before winning a race with Ax 9x v 8x 8x, then he called of a turn and river bluff by Andre Akkari and he now has 225,000.
