Level 18
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Gerardo Rodriguez had already stood from the table after getting in his remaining ~170,000 on the button with pocket fives and facing Sabry Wazwaz's two overs.
Gerardo Rodriguez: 5♦5♠
Sabry Wazwaz: K♥Q♦
Rodriguez managed to hold on the 4♥7♥J♣ flop, but the Q♣ turn put Wazwaz ahead. The 9♦ sealed Rodriguez's fate in the tournament, and he was sent to the rail after just 15 minutes of Day 2 action.
