Only three tables now remain in the Colossus. At this stage, most decisive hands are being played out entirely pre-flop, which has turned each flop, turn and river into emotional roller coasters for the players involved.

Matthew Horovitch’s elimination reduced the field to 24 players and brought about the closure of yet another table. Horovitch had made a miraculous comeback to reach this stage, as he was down to only four big blinds earlier in the flight. Although his run ended earlier than he wanted it to, he will find some comfort when he collects his $3,600 payout ticket.
