Level 30 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Michael Rosaman moved all in for 770,000 on the button and Calogero Morreale burned through two time banks before calling in the big blind.

Michael Rosaman: K♦4♣ All in
Calogero Morreale: Q♥9♠

The Q♠8♠7♦ flop gave Morreale the lead with top pair, while the 9♦ turn improved him to two pair. Rosaman was already drawing dead by the 2♦ river as he was denied his second title this week and had to settle for third place.

Morreale and Gang Wang are taking a short break before beginning heads-up play.

Level 29 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Michael Rosaman raised to 160,000 on the button before Calogero Morreale moved all in for 635,000 in the big blind with K♥9♠. Rosaman gave up the same K♠9♥.

The next hand, Gang Wang raised to 550,000 on the button, Morreale shoved again for 915,000 in the small blind, and Wang called.

Calogero Morreale: 6♠6♦ All in
Gang Wang: J♣7♣

Morreale was ahead with his sixes as the flop came 5♦2♣2♥, but the 10♣ turn meant he had to dodge a flush draw on the river to stay alive. The Q♦ was safe for Morreale, and he doubled up.
