Tjenno Eskes Eliminated in 7th Place (€179,250)
After it folded to Tjenno Eskes in the small blind, he called and Paul Runcan raised to 475,000 from the big blind. Eskes check-shoved for 3,050,000 and after thinking for a few moments, Runcan made the call to put Eskes at risk.
Tjenno Eskes: A?6? 
Paul Runcan: K?10?
Eskes was ahead with ace-high and just had to fade an unfortunate runout to double-up and remain in the tournament.
However, the dealer put out a flop of J?9?Q? to give Runcan the nuts and leave Eskes needing running cards to win. The 9? came on the turn to cement Eskes' elimination from the tournament, as an inconsequential A? appeared on the river.
Eskes headed to the rail in seventh as the remaining six players had secured their spots on Day 6 of the 2024 EPT Prague Main Event.
