Matt Giannetti Eliminated in 7th Place ($112,725)

Matt Giannetti - 7th place
Matt Giannetti - 7th place

Matt Giannetti opened to 85,000 from the button it was folded over to Dan Smith in the big blind, who re-popped it to 200,000. Giannetti paused and announced he was all in for a bit under 600,000. Smith quickly made the call and Giannetti would be at risk.

Showdown
Giannetti: {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}
Smith: {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}

The {8-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{Q-Spades} flop left Smith with a commanding lead, however, Giannetti still had outs to a straight. It wasn't meant to be, though, as the {K-Diamonds} turn and {6-Diamonds} river bricked for Giannetti and he was sent to the rail in 7th place.

Giannetti, who already has tournament winnings in excess of $3 million, will add $112,725 more for his efforts today.
