Ortega Picks Off Petrus
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Yurii Petrus shoved his last 11,000 in from middle position and Jacques Ortega called from the small blind.
Yurii Petrus: A♦10♣ 
Jacques Ortega: 10♠10♥
Petrus needed to find that ace, but the 10♦Q♠Q♦ flop all but sealed his fate as Ortego flopped a full house. A queen was Petrus' best chance at survival as that would ensure at least a chop, but the 2♥4♥ runout meant he was eliminated.
