Akindele Deadman and Lucarotti Eliminated

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

Ludovic Geilich was among the late alternates to get their seat and grabbed the spot where Shola Akindele Deadman had been sitting.

Next to the bar, John Lucarotti was just all in for around 18,000 from the button and Shantanu Banerji in the small blind looked him up with {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}. Lucarotti only had {7-Spades}{7-Hearts} and saw the flop come {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}. On the {10-Spades} turn, Lucarotti asked for a jack or ten, thinking of a possible split pot, and sat back down relieved when the {J-Clubs} came on the river.

Only then he noticed the fatal mistake and bowed out.
