Traian Stanciu Eliminated in 22nd Place ($17,930)
Level 30
: Blinds 50,000/125,000, 125,000 ante
Traian Stanciu made it 1,100,000 to go from under the gun and left himself just 200,000 behind. Leonid Orman was on the button and shoved over 3,000,000, and when it got back to Stanciu, he called.
Traian Stanciu: K♦Q♣ 
Leonid Orman: 10♣10♥
"Fair fight," said Orman.
Indeed it was and it was Orman that increased his odds after the 7♣7♦4♦ flop kept his pocket tens in the lead. A 5♣ on the turn left Stanciu with just six outs, and he couldn't find it on the river as the A♠ completed the board.
