Bilotti Riivers Set One Card Too Late

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Nicholas Bilotti

There was three-way action that saw a {5-Clubs}{3-Spades}{4-Diamonds} flop. Wen Zhang jammed for 161,000 from the big blind and Nicholas Bilotti called for less holding 147,000 from late position. Action was on the button player who called having both players covered.

Wen Zhang: {6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}
Button Player: {6-Hearts}{5-Hearts}
Nicholas Bilotti: {2-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}

Both Zhang and Bilotti were at risk as their opponent was ahead and held the same staright draw as Zhang.

Luckily for Zhang, the dealer turned the {7-Diamonds} giving him the only chance he had at staying alive but the same couldn't be said for Bilotti as he needed a six to fall on the river to try and get a chop as well.

Instead, the dealer added some salt to the wound dropping the {2-Spades} giving him the set but it was too late and he was eliminated from the tournament.
