Abitbol Eliminates Caciolo in Flip

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

Giuseppe Caciolo moved all-in for 86,000 from under the gun. Action folded around to Raphael Abitbol on the button who asked for a count before making the call. The blinds folded.

Giuseppe Caciolo: {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}
Raphael Abitbol: {a-Hearts}{8-Hearts}

It was a flip as Caciolo's pocket pair was up against Abitbol's overcards. The flop came {j-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} which put Caciolo way ahead. However the turn came the {8-Spades} which had Caciolo drawing to two outs. The outs didn't come as the river came the {a-Spades} which gave Abitbol two pair to eliminate Caciolo from the tournament.
