Level 18 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Pedro Garagnani

Kevin Paque raised to 100,000 from under the gun before Pedro Garagnani moved all in for 605,000 in the big blind. Paque called as they waited for a hand to finish on the other table before showing their cards.

Pedro Garagnani: {5-Hearts}{5-Spades}
Kevin Paque: {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}

"No," Garagnani said when he saw he was crushed by Paque's jacks. He picked up a straight draw on the {2-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} flop, but couldn't connect on the {a-Hearts} turn or {7-Diamonds} river and received a round of sympathies from his tablemates on his way to the exit.
