Anthony Zinno Eliminated in 10th Place ($32,683)

Level 22 : 50,000/100,000, 0 ante
Anthony Zinno
Anthony Zinno

Stud Hi-Lo

Within two hands, the short stack of Anthony Zinno has been cut to zero to reduce the field to the final nine.

Anthony Zinno: {7-Clubs}{3-Clubs} / {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} / {x-}
Phil Galfond: {q-Spades}{8-Spades} / {5-Spades}{9-Spades}{8-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} / {x-}

Zinno completed and Phil Galfond called. Zinno bet fourth and received a call before Zinno's bet on fifth resulted in the raise of Galfond and they got the chips in. Galfond showed a pair of eights and spades flush draw while Zinno was in need of help with a pair of treys.

Galfond was the player at risk and he peeled the {6-Clubs}. Zinno hit the {4-Clubs} and saw his stack reduced to 40,000, as Galfond doubled for 320,000 total.

Zinno ended up all in the very next hand and he was called by Daniel Ospina.

Anthony Zinno: {3-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} / {2-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{7-Spades} / {x-}
Daniel Ospina: {4-Clubs}{2-Hearts} / {6-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{q-Spades} / {x-}

Ospina was ahead with a pair of sixes until sixth and Zinno peeled the {q-Diamonds} to be left drawing dead, the {7-Hearts} for Ospina was a formality.

All remaining players will now combine to one table and the action concludes when there are six of them remaining.
