The flop came 5♦2♥2♣ and Romero bet 350,000. Suarez then raised to 700,000, Romero moved all in for 1,355,000, and Suarez called.
Alejandro Romero: A♣K♠
Anton Suarez: J♥J♣
Suarez was ahead with his two pair, and the Q♣ turn and 9♣ river were no help to Romero who was eliminated.
At the same time at the other outer table, Sebastian Ionita had opened to 100,000 in the hijack and Martin Nielsen shoved for 840,000 in the cutoff. The table folded back to Ionita who called to put Nielsen at risk.
