Mirco Scharen
Mirco Scharen was the chipleader from Flight E.

Charlemagne Benjamin raised under the gun to 60,000, Mirco Scharen reraised from the big blind to 200,000, and Benjamin four-bet all in for roughly 1.3 million.

Scharen thought for a while before he called all in for 600,000 with AhQs, but Benjamin turned over KsKc. Scharen needed to improve to stay alive.

The board came Qc8h6cJc3s, and Scharen paired his queen on the flop, but improved no further. Benjamin won the pot with his pocket kings to eliminate Scharen in 64th place.
