Katherine Porrello Eliminated in 16th Place ($29,350)
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Ekrem Bozkurt opened to 50,000 in middle position and Katherine Porrello three-bet to 125,000 in the hijack. Bozkurt responded with a four-bet to 325,000 and Porrello shoved all in for just over 700,000. Bozkurt snap-called and the cards were on their backs.
Katherine Porrello: A♣K♦
Ekrem Bozkurt: A♠A♦
The flop came 9♣2♠2♣ which left things looking grim for Porrello. The 2♦ on the turn sealed the deal and the 8♦ on the river was just a formality as Porrello was the first player eliminated on Day 5.
