Ace on the River for Team Manole
Level 10`
: 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
After a series of raises, a player had jammed for 28,600 in the big blind and Mihai Manole of Team Manole moved all-in for 41,700. A player in late position who had 5,000 already in the pot thought about it for quite a while and slammed the chips down to make the call.
Mihai Manole: 
Big Blind: 
Late Position: 
The dealer fanned a flop of 
, pairing the late position's five but the big blind was still in the lead with a pair of eights. The 
landed on the turn for Manole to pick up a gutshot straight with his two overcards and the 
on the river meant he had more than doubled up while eliminating the big blind from the tournament.
