The first player to bust on Day 5 was Nandor Solyom after getting in his shortstack with K-7 against Davidi Kitai’s K-9 and failing to improve. He was shortly followed by Roman Pavliuk, Pascal Pflock, Balazs Botond, Jakub Slemr, Artem Metalidi, Sergey Lebedev and Thomas Butzhammer.

After this, the bustouts started to slow down, but after an hour both Tamer Kamel and Vanessa Selbst busted. Selbst 5bet shoved with A-J suited only to run into Bjorn Wiesler’s K-K.

Andras Németh has been building his stack the whole day, but he lost most of it in a 140 big blind coinflip, after his A-K suited failed to improve against Graner’s Q-Q, and soon lost the remainder of his stack aswell and busted in 11th place, not much after Francesco Grieco (13th place) and Sam "TheSquid" Grafton (12th) were eliminated.

Davidi Kitai finished in 10th place to form the unofficial final table, his K-9 fell short against Remi Castaignon’s A-5 in a preflop all-in.

Not much later, local player Jakub Slamr lost a coinflip with Q-Q against Bertilsson’s A-K to bust in ninth. On the second-to-last hand of the day, Miltiadis Kyriakides lost his stack after getting it in with A-K against Stephen Graner’s A-T before the flop, but was eliminated when the board came T-Q-4-9-3.
