David Salituro

Level 18 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Marek Rous, Gediminas Grigas, and Hristiyan Banov each put in 20,000 before Marcin Andrzejewski moved all in for 26,000 in the big blind. Rous called in the cutoff and Grigas called on the button.

"You can fold," Andrzejewski joked with Banov, who also came along from the small blind. All three players checked to the river on a board of A♣3♦2♠4♠3♠ where Rous bet 27,000. Banov and Grigas quickly folded.

Rous slammed down A♠J♦9♣5♠ for a straight flush and Andrzejewski's cards quickly hit the muck as he made his exit.

Min Ho Cho was also recently eliminated.
