David Salituro

Level 20 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Enrico Camosci raised to 160,000 in early position before Aliaksei Boika three-bet to 375,000 in the hijack, leaving 175,000 behind. Elias Gutierrez then reshoved in the big blind, Camosci folded, and Boika called off his last chips.

Aliaksei Boika: Q♣Q♦ All in
Elias Gutierrez: 10♣10♦

Boika had Gutierrez crushed with his queens and was poised for a double up as the board came J♠6♣6♥3♣, but Gutierrez spiked the 10♥ on the river to make a full house and send Boika to the rail as the bubble boy.

The remaining eight players are in the money.
