Action folded around to Maceiras in the small blind who made it 17,000 to go. Petronack was patient and deliberate in his decision to call the raise, blocking out a bit of verbal heckling from Maceiras.
The flop came
and Lapido, first to act, open-shoved all in putting Petronack to a decision for all of his chips. Petronack called before Maceiras was able to slide a single chip across the betting line, tabling two red aces, much to the dismay of his boisterous rival who could only produce pocket eights.As we all know, poker can be a cruel, cruel game at times, and this hand was one of those times for Petronack, who cringed as he watched the dealer burn and turn the
-- one of Maceiras's two outs. The river brought the 
-- a useless card for Petronack -- and an ecstatic Maceiras celebrated the win with a small group of friends near the rail.

and Thierry bet the pot. Claus put in a reraise and Thierry moved all in. Claus insta-called. "You have aces?" asked Thierry as he flipped 
. It was not aces but jacks, and Thierry had two outs with two cards to come. The turn and river were 
and a 360,000-chip pot was shipped to Claus and Thierry was sent to the rail.
The Italian opened the pot with a 13,000 raise from under the gun and the action folded around the table to Kenny in the small blind, who re-popped it to 40,000. Blanco flat called, leaving himself approximately 50,000 behind.
The dealer spread a jack-high flop and Kenny open-shoved, putting Cristiano to a decision for all of his chips. Holding pocket queens, Blanco made the inevitable call and Kenny tabled big slick. Cristiano's queens didn't even reign long enough to hold court, as the dealer quickly burned and turned an ace, tipping the scales heavily in Kenny's favor with one card to come.
The last card to fall off the deck was an inconsequential six and the young American took down the pot on the strength of a single pair of aces, eliminating Blanco from the tournament in 33rd place.
