Rizzo Over Four Million, Pinto Eliminated

Stewart Morrison

Level 16 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Leonardo Rizzo opened to 55,000 from the cutoff, and Marllon Pinto called in the big blind.

Pinto check-called a bet of 75,000 on the K♦8♦5♣ flop, seeing the 8♠ turn card join the board.

Pinto led out for 125,000, and Rizzo almost immediately moved all in.

After strong consideration, Pinto called, risking his 615,000 stack.

Marllon Pinto:10♦8♣ All in
Leonardo Rizzo: A♣8♥

It was a nasty cooler for Pinto, and the 2♠ river was unable to offer relief, seeing him eliminated at the hands of the chip leader.
