Alberto Speranzoni Eliminated in 16th Place (€43,000)
Level 26
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Jonas Lauck raised to 200,000 from the cutoff, and Alberto Speranzoni shoved for 2,360,000 out of the big blind. After getting an exact count from the dealer, Lauck stuck in the call.
Alberto Speranzoni: K♠K♣
Jonas Lauck: A♥Q♦
Speranzoni was ahead with pocket kings and just needed to fade an ace to double up.
The flop of 6♣K♥5♣ was favorable for Speranzoni as he hit top set, and only running cards would see him bust.
Lauck picked up a gutshot straight draw on the 10♦ turn and managed to get there on the J♠ river, improving to Broadway.
Lauck pulled in the pot, and Speranzoni headed to the rail in 16th place.
