Soncin Sends Out Shankar
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Luigi Soncin raised to 40,000 in first position and Ravi Shankar called on the button while everyone else folded.
The flop rolled out 2♦8♣10♦ and both players checked to the 8♥ turn where Soncin bet 55,000 and Shankar called.
On the river J♠, Soncin checked over to Shankar who moved all in for 120,000 and Soncin snap-called.
Ravi Shankar: Q♣J♦ 
Luigi Soncin: Q♦9♦
Soncin's gutshot came home while Shankar hit his no good top pair. Shankar was eliminated from the tournament while Soncin soared to over one million chips.
