John Arcano Eliminated in 10th Place ($6,405)
Level 21
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Action went heads-up to a flop of 7♠6♥9♦ in a hand between John Arcano on the button and Brian Mahler in the big blind.
Mahler check-raised all in over Arcano's bet of 100,000, prompting Arcano to go into the tank. After taking some time to think through his decision, Arcano eventually flicked in the call for his remaining 265,000 or so.
"Got a set?" asked Arcano before the cards were tabled.
John Arcano: Q♦Q♥
Brian Mahler: 6♠6♣
Mahler did indeed have a set, and improved to a full house as the board ran out 7♥, J♣ to send Arcano packing.
