Level 16
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
David Lu shoved from the small blind, covering Vincent Santagata in the big blind. Santagata called with his stack of 190,000, putting himself at risk.
Vincent Santagata: A♣Q♦
David Lu: K♦J♦
Santagata remained ahead with ace-high on the 10♦6♥2♣ flop and 7♣ turn, before the J♣ river gave Lu a pair to score the elimination.
"Come on bro!" Santagata exclaimed after getting rivered before exiting the tournament area.
