Level 13
: 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Salvatore DiCarlo, Uri Reichenstein and Timothy Pirraglia missed out on the money.
Pirraglia three-bet all in for his last 31,800 and initial raiser Eddy Sabat reluctantly called, then rolled over 
. Pirraglia turned over 
and stood up from his seat. "You don't stand up," Sabat said and got a sweat on the 
flop.
The turn changed nothing, but a cruel 
hit on the river to eliminate Pirraglia.
Meanwhile Reichenstein's roller coaster ended one table over. He built the stack back up to 80,000, dropped down to 17,000 and now got it in with 
against the of Carlos Reis. The board came 
and Reichenstein also has missed the money.
