Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 400 ante
Martin Zamani
Martin Zamani

Martin "BathroomLine" Zamani's rise to the top continued as he took out an opponent to add more chips to his huge stack.

Zamani raised to 10,000 from middle position. Matt "RubberFist" Stout then moved all in from the big blind for 55,163 and Zamani called.

It was a coin flip as Stout was at risk with the {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} while Zamani had the {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}.

The flop came {10-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}. The turn was the {2-Spades} and the river came the {9-Clubs} to miss Stout and eliminate him while Zamani surged to above 900,000.

Dunst Cracks Kings to Eliminate Riccobono

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 400 ante
Al Riccobono
Al Riccobono

Action folded around to Al "BigAl16" Riccobono in the cutoff and he moved all in for 44,490. Tony "Panoramic" Dunst, who won an online gold bracelet over the summer, was in the big blind and opted to make the call.

Al "BigAl16" Riccobono: {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Tony "Panaramic" Dunst: {a-Hearts}{6-Clubs}

Riccobono was way ahead and held good through the {4-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{2-Hearts} and {q-Hearts} turn, but Dunst picked up a heart draw to go with his pair of sixes. Another heart failed to materialize, but the {a-Clubs} was just as good for Dunst as he made two pair to eliminate Riccobono.
