Marcel Hurni Busts in 16th Place

We've finally lost the valiant short-stack warrior Marcel Hurni.

It's rather unfortunate, really - he, was in the big blind, and he must have thought he was ahead when he saw the flop. I caught it from the turn of the Th Td 8c 7h board, and Valentin Schachinger had bet out 15,000 from the small blind position. Hurni raised almost all in - all of his black T5k chips, leaving behind only the red T1k chips. Ferenc Bartha called, as did Schachinger.

The river was the Js and once Schachinger had checked, the rest of Hurni's chips went in. Bartha now raised to 50,000, and actually I'm not sure if Schachinger called - he turned over Q-T for trips. Hurni turned over T-4 for trips as well, albeit with a less good kicker - but it didn't matter anyway, as Bartha flipped Qd 9d for a straight and scooped the pot.

We are now down to 15 players.
