Matt Giannetti Eliminated in 4th Place ($66,544)

Matt Giannetii - 4th Place
Matt Giannetii - 4th Place
Down to only 80,000 in chips, Matt Giannetti got his stack in the middle before the flop and Jason Mercier looked him up.

Giannetti {A-Clubs} {10-Hearts} {2-Spades} {2-Hearts}
Mercier {K-Clubs} {10-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {6-Hearts}

The board ran out {7-Spades} {3-Clubs} {3-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} {9-Spades}, Mercier making a ten-high straight to send Giannetti home in fourth place. The $66,544 he'll take home is a career-high tournament score for Giannetti, who is primarily a cash game player.

Mercier is now the dominant chip leader with over 1.6 million.
