Crema Falls at the Hands of Bruschi
Level 20
: 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Thiago Crema raised to 100,000 in the cutoff, only to be three-bet to 275,000 by Renan Bruschi on the button. The action returned to Crema, who four-bet all in for 1,800,000, and Bruschi called, putting himself at risk.
Renan Bruschi: K♥K♦ 
Thiago Crema: A♦Q♣
The 10♠4♥5♥K♠7♥ board only served to improve Bruschi to top set, and left Crema on life support.
A few hands later, Crema only had 25,000 left in his stack and put it into the middle from under the gun. Bruschi three-bet to 115,000, and the rest of the table folded.
Thiago Crema: Q♦7♣
Renan Bruschi: A♥K♠
Crema took the lead on the Q♥8♠10♥ flop, and stayed there on the 5♠ turn.
The K♦ river sealed his fate, though, as he was eliminated.
