Anthony Zinno Eliminated

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Anthony Zinno
Anthony Zinno

On the first hand after play resumed, Anthony Zinno shoved all in for 70,500 from the big blind over a raise to 10,000. His opponent folded, and Zinno collected the pot to move to 87,500.

In the next hand, the player under the gun opened to 11,000, and when it folded round to Zinno in the small blind, he moved all in for 87,000. The big blind folded, but the original raiser quickly called.

Zinno: {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}
Opponent: {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}

The dealer spread a {Q-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{J-Hearts} flop to give Zinno outs to any heart or ten. Unfortunately for the WSOP bracelet winner, he would see the {4-Clubs} and {8-Clubs} roll off on the turn and river, and Zinno was eliminated.

Patrik Antonius

With about 80,000 chips in the middle and the completed board reading {K-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}, Patrik Antonius bet 50,000 from the big blind into his lone opponent in the cutoff. After brief consideration, the cutoff folded, throwing his cards forcefully into the muck. When prompted by another player at the table, he said he folded {10-}{10-}.
