Vito Branciforte Eliminated in 8th Place ($48,947)
Level 40
: Blinds 1,000,000/1,500,000, 1,500,000 ante
Action folded to Vito Branciforte on the button who went all in. Ta-Wei Tou was in the small blind and put in enough 500,000 chips to constitute a raise. The big blind folded and they were off to a full board for Branciforte's tournament life.
The hands were turned over.
Vito Branciforte: K♠5♠
Ta-Wei Tou: A♥J♠
The J♣K♣7♠ flop gave Branciforte hope. The turn Q♦ allowed him to hold the lead but the brutal A♠ hit the river and sent Branciforte to the rail in eighth place.
