Action folded to Boris Kravets who limped in from early position, before Rosendo Guerrero Veras raised all in for 122,000. Once it folded back to Kravets, he confirmed the count and made the call to put Guerreo Veras at risk.
Rosendo Guerrero Veras: 10♠10♥
Boris Kravets: J♥J♦
Kravets limped in with his pocket jacks and Guerrero ran right into the trap and would need to improve to stay in the tournament. But after the board ran out K♠Q♣2♥9♠2♠ Kravet's pocket jacks were still best, and Guerrero Veras was eliminated.
