Palumbo Over 400K
Level 13
: 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante
Rocco Palumbo had chipped up to more than 350,000 before opening in middle position and calling a three-bet to 23,000 from Brian Leitch in the big blind. Leitch committed his remaining 40,000 on the flop 
and Palumbo called.
Brian Leitch: 
Rocco Palumbo: 
"That sucks," said Palumbo after seeing Leitch pip him. "I hit, too," he added as the turn 
brought one card between Leitch and a double. Unfortunately for Leitch, that final card came 
and proved to be the last card of his tournament.
"Just the way my night's gone," said Leitch with a smile after finding himself eliminated. Fourteen players now remain.
