Ladouceur Busts Minieri Near Bubble

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante
Dario Minieri - Eliminated
Dario Minieri - Eliminated

Chris Klodnicki raised to 6,600 from the cutoff and Dario Minieri three-bet all in for 42,900. Action folded over to Marc-Andre Ladouceur in the big blind who thought for a moment before announcing a call. Klodnicki quickly got out of the way and the hands were turned up.

Minieri: {A-Spades}{10-Spades}
Ladouceur: {A-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}

Ladouceur was ahead, but Minieri found a glimmer of hope on the {8-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{4-Spades} flop. Minieri was searching for a spade or a ten on subsequent streets to jump out to an immediate lead. Unfortunately for the PokerStars Team Pro, he found no help on the turn ({Q-Hearts}) or the river ({6-Clubs}).

Minieri was eliminated near the bubble while Ladouceur brought his stack to about 290,000.
