John Favaloro - 23rd Place

Jon Favaloro open-shoved all in with his short stack, and Ty Reiman asked for a count, apparently pondering a call from the small blind. When he got the number, he checked Mike DeGilio's stack in the big blind before moving all in over the top. That was enough to get him heads up against Favaloro with his opponent's tournament life on the line.

Showdown
Favaloro: {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

{K-Diamonds}

Reiman:

{6-Diamonds}

{6-Hearts}

The flop was no fun for Favaloro as the dealer ran it out {10-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

{6-Spades}

{5-Spades}

. "Figures," he mumbled at the sight of Reiman's set. The {2-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

on the turn sealed the deal, leaving him drawing dead to the {5-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

on the river.

Reiman's full house is plenty good enough to take down the pot, eliminating Day 1a chip leader Jon Favaloro in 23rd place, and moving his own stack up to a very healthy 680,000.
