Terry Gonzaga Eliminated in 3d Place (PHP2,471,382/$44,636)
Level 28
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Terry Gonzaga raised to 220,000 on the button for Alessandro Taranto three-bet to 670,000 out of the small blind, which Gonzaga called.
On the 5♣4♦2♦ flop, Taranto bet 280,000 and instantly called the shove by Gonzaga for 1,500,000.
Terry Gonzaga: 6♥5♥
Alessandro Taranto: A♣3♣
Gonzaga needed a trey for the superior straight or running cards for a full house to avoid elimination. Nothing changed with the K♠ turn and the 6♣ river sent Gonzaga to the rail in third place, setting up a heads-up duel between Taranto and Edwin "hit the heat" Dela Cruz.
