Salvador Campos Eliminated in 17th Place ($21,335)

Slavador Campos - 17th place
Slavador Campos - 17th place

Salvador Campos opened to 125,000 from early position, and the action folded to John Bitakis, who moved all in. The action folded back to Campos, who quickly called, and the hands were opened.

Campos: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}
Bitakis: {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

"Classic race situation," Tripp Kirk joked.

The {10-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} flop didn't change much, but the {a-Diamonds} on the turn gave Campos a leading pair of aces. At the site of the ace, Bitakis tossed one of his chips in the air, looking defeated, but to his delight the {2-Diamonds} spiked on the river.

Bitakis won the hand with his flush, and the stacks were counted down. Bitakis' 710,000-chip stack barely covered Campos' 705,000-chip stack, eliminating him in 17th place.
