David Salituro

Level 25 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Dario Alioto and Danyil Zaremba went heads-up to a flop of J♦J♠10♣ where Zaremba moved all in from the big blind and Alioto called for 1,000,000 in the cutoff.

Dario Alioto: A♦K♦Q♥8♣ All in
Danyil Zaremba: A♠5♥4♥4♣

Alioto had a straight draw, while Zaremba was ahead with two pair. The 2♣ turn was no help to Alioto, while the river was the 5♠ and Zaremba won the pot with jacks and fives to send Alioto to the rail.

"You thought you had aces, right? Because you had the four. Just kidding. You played it like aces," Fredrik Lindstrom joked with Zaremba after the hand.

Puk Nabuurs: 8♥7♠6♥5♠

Nabuurs was ahead with two pair and Tamm was already standing up from his seat as the J♥ fell on the turn. "GG, guys," he said even before the Q♣ river as Tamm was eliminated in ninth place.
