Juan Velasco Eliminated in 6th Place (€40,250)
Level 37
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Jose Gomez Casillas made it 5,700,000 under the gun and Juan Velasco shoved for 7,750,000 from the cutoff. When it got back to Casillas, he called.
Juan Velasco: A♣Q♣
Jose Gomez Casillas: 8♠7♠
It was a sweaty situation for both, but especially for Velasco as his tournament was on the line. He found a good flop in K♣4♠10♥ as he picked up a gutshot and stayed in the lead. However, a 3♠ turn gave Casillas a flush draw and suddenly the situation wasn't so cosy for Velasco.
All eyes were on the empty slot where the river card was going to hit, and when the 7♥ landed, Velasco hit the rail as Casillas made a pair of sevens.
