Claudio Di Giacomo Eliminated in 5th Place (€265,000)
Level 31
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
The action reached Gerald Karlic on the button, and the chip leader pushed all in against two short stacks. One of them was Claudio Di Giacomo, who was in the big blind and called for his last 4,325,000.
Claudio Di Giacomo: A♠J♦
Gerald Karlic: K♣5♣
The 3♣2♣2♠ flop gave Karlic the flush draw to go with his two live cards. Nothing changed on the 10♠ turn, but the 7♣ on the river spelled the end for Di Giacomo in fifth place, having won his entry by taking down one of the many major tournaments throughout the year at King's Resort. For his efforts, the Italian earned a payday of €265,000.
