D'Anselmo Fades the World to Eliminate Lettau
Level 7
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Andre Lettau was already all in and at risk from the big blind against Nicola D'Anselmo, who was in the hijack, on a flop of 6♣5♦3♣.
Andre Lettau: J♣4♣
Nicola D'Anselmo: 9♣9♦
D'Anselmo held the best hand with his overpair, but would need to fade a cascade of outs as Lettau held both straight and flush draws in addition to his overcard.
It wasn't meant to be for Lettau, however, as the K♠ turn and 3♦ river bricked out — eliminating Lettau as Day 1b draws to an end.
