Roberto Spada Eliminated in 8th Place (€81,950)

Reduced to just 480,000 after doubling up Xuan Liu twice, Roberto Spada wasted little time in getting his last few big blinds in. Fellow short stack Max Lykov reshoved from the button, the blinds both folded, and they were on their backs.
Spada: a desperate 
Lykov: a slightly less desperate 
Board: 
It was a disappointing end to the tournament for Spada, who had been chip leader at the end of Day 3 and came into the final today in third place behind our two monster stacks, Rupert Elder and Max Heinzelmann. Nevertheless he has 81,950 reasons to celebrate his run at EPT San Remo as he heads home to Ostia. Team PokerStars Pro Lykov, meanwhile, is back in the running on around 1.5 million, and still in with a chance at making EPT history by becoming the first ever double winner.
