Xavier Cortazar Eliminated in 10th Place (€61,700)
Level 27
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
With the action unopened, Xavier Cortazar moved all in for 580,000 from the cutoff. Raul Mestre called on the button, and the blinds got out of the way.
Xavier Cortazar: 7♠7♣
Raul Mestre:8♠8♦
Cortazar, who hit quad jacks to crack pocket aces at the beginning of the day, was looking for a similar piece of magic from the deck.
Alas, no such help was forthcoming, as the Q♦4♥2♥6♥2♦ board kept the pocket eights firmly in the lead.
