Sitbon Sends Preziosi for an Early Dinner
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
All of Fulvio Preziosi's stack of 120,000 was in the middle preflop, with Julien Sitbon trying to send him the rail before the dinner break.
Fulvio Preziosi: A♣K♥ 
Julien Sitbon: Q♣Q♦
Preziosi needed to connect with the board in some way to keep his seat in the Main Event.
A flop of 3♣8♦4♦ came down, keeping the ladies of Sitbon out in front. A 7♦ turn meant only an ace or king on the river would save Preziosi. The 8♥ completed the board, and the pot went over to Sitbon, while Preziosi vacated the tournament area.
