Giacomo D'Agostino Eliminated in 5th Place ($28,083)

Giacomo D'Agostino was getting short. Five-handed, he caught split tens and put in half of his stack with the completion. Action folded to the bring-in, Mike Rocco, who looked down at buried aces. He raised, and D'Agostino put the rest of his chips in.

On fourth street, D'Agostino drew one of the two remaining aces away from Rocco, but had still yet to improve. Rocco caught the case ace on sixth street to make trip aces and have D'Agostino, who still had only a pair of tens, drawing dead. D'Agostino made trip tens on the river anyway.

He earns $28,083 for his performance in this tournament.
