End of the Road for Vecchio

Level 5 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

After his ill-timed bluff at the end of the third level, James Vecchio nursed a short stack for a while. He eventually got it in for just 2,100 with the 2♦2♣ and was looked up by an opponent with the A♠9♦. The board came A♣8♥7♠8♦5♥ and that spelled the end for Vecchio.

"Three pocket pairs in five hands," he sighed on the way out.
