Perazzi Spikes a Set For the First Bustout
Level 4
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
A player under the gun had a raise of 8,000 in front of him before Pier Angelo Perazzi moved all in from the cutoff. His opponent snap-called.
All-In Player: A♠K♠ 
Pier Angelo Perazzi: 8♣8♠
The flop came J♥8♥5♥ as Perazzi took a big lead in the pot with a set of eights. The 10♠ turn gave his opponent some hope with a straight draw, but he missed the 2♦ river as Perazzi locked up the pot.
The stacks were counted down and Perazzi had 46,000 remaining. He barely had his opponent covered and the under-the-gun player was sent to the rail as the first elimination of the day.
