Short Stack Salter Eliminated

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Jack Salter was down to just 30,000 chips, and in the space of three hands he tripled up and lost them all.

In the first hand, Salter was in all in from the small blind and up against two opponents. One folded to a bet from the other on the {k-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} flop, and Salter was now in need of help from the board to survive with {10-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}. The turn {4-Clubs} gave Salter trips and the lead against his opponent who held {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs} and top pair on the flop, but Salter held on the river to move up 120,000.

Just one fold later, Salter got his stack into the middle once more when he three-bet all in after an open from Alex Lindop. Salter's bet was called, and he held a dominating hand with {a-Spades}{j-Spades} against {q-Hearts}{j-Clubs}.

The {2-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{8-Spades} flop was safe for Salter but the {q-Spades} turn but Lindop in the lead. Salter called for a ten on the river, but it didn't come, and he was eliminated from the proceedings.

Aniulis Hits a Two Outer to Survive

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Evaldas Aniulis found himself all in and a massive favorite for a double up, and an opponent who held pocket threes called him. But when the flop came down {10-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}, he had only two outs to hit to remain in the tournament after his opponent hit a set.

When the dealer flipped over the {k-Diamonds} turn card Aniulis saw his hand hit top set and he survived on the river to claim an extraordinary lifeline.
