Level 21 : 15,000/30,000, 3,000 ante
Enzo Del Piero
Enzo Del Piero

Enzo Del Piero has become the first player to depart at the final table after busting to Ka Him Li. Del Piero was in the big blind with {J-Clubs}{9-Hearts} and Li on the button with {A-Hearts}{2-Hearts}.

After a standard bet pre-flop from Li and call from Del Piero, action wasn't fast to the turn on a board of {9-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{J-Hearts}. That saw Li make it 134,000, but Del Piero moved all-in and was called. The {2-Diamonds} river eliminated Del Piero.
