Kovacs now has around 900,000 chips |
The Hungarian first eliminated Frank Van Spaandonk in a blind battle, limp-calling his pre-flop raise from the small blind before checking the AKJ flop.
Van Spaandonk fired out a 30,000 bet for around half the pot and added another 50,000 when the turn was a blank. Kovacs check-raised all-in and with the Spaniard committed, he showed the nuts Q10 to beat Frank's K7.
Not content with that, Jozsef then picked up Aces just a few hands later - calling the all-in of Diego Bermejo and holding off his 10s to claim another scalp. His stack has now swelled to around 900,000.
Van Spaandonk wins €2,400 and Bermejo takes €2,800.
We'll be taking a dinner break once the final table is set, with one more player set to miss out on the showcase finish.
Prize pool reminder - 1st - €33,000; 2nd - €20,500; 3rd - €15,000; 4th - €11,500; 5th - €9,000; 6th - €6,800; 7th - €5,300; 8th - €4,450; 9th - €3,850; 10th - €3,300
