Koral Knocked Out By Giannetti

Level 28 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Tom Koral - 47th place
Tom Koral - 47th place

From early position, Tom Koral opened by raising to 180,000 and it folded to Christopher Moore on the button who called. Matt Giannetti then reraised to 600,000 from the small blind, forcing out the big blind. Koral tanked for some time, then reraised over the top all in for about 2.4 million total. Moore stepped aside, and Giannetti called.

Giannetti: {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}
Koral: {J-Spades}{J-Hearts}

A bad spot for Koral. The flop came {K-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{10-Clubs}, actually improving Koral's situation by providing a couple of extra outs for a straight. But the turn was the {A-Diamonds}, giving Giannetti a boat and making the {6-Diamonds} inconsequential.

Koral is out in 47th place. Meanwhile, Giannetti has bounced back up to around 7.1 million.
