Gaetan Balleur Eliminated in 5th Place ($137,948)
Level 29
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Gaetan Balleur opened to 320,000 on the button and Antonio Galiana three-bet to 1,380,000 from the small blind. When it got back to Balleur, he shoved for 4,910,000. Galiana quickly called.
Gaetan Balleur: 7♠7♣
Antonio Galiana: J♥J♦
Balleur's future in the tournament was looking bleak, but the Q♠9♠10♠ flop gave him a flush draw and a lot more outs. A Q♣ on the turn paired the board, and the 8♦ river gave Galiana a straight, sending Balleur to the rail.
