D'Alessio Knocks out Laba to Take Chip Lead
Level 30
: 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
After a series of bets and raises on a flop of 10?8?6?, Vasyl Laba found himself all in and at risk against Ferdinando D'Alessio.
Vasyl Laba: J?J?
Ferdinando D'Alessio: 9?7?
Laba's overpair was crushed by D'Alessio, who had flopped the nut-straight. He picked up two outs when the board paired on the 8? turn, but could not find a jack on the A? river, resulting in his elimination. D'Alessio scooped a massive pot, soaring past ten million chips in the process.
Meanwhile at another table, Miltiadis Kyriakides was also eliminated from the tournament.
