Before the flop, Jonathan Markovits and Vincenzo Giannelli mixed it up in a preflop raising war that left the latter all in for just less than 400,000 as he was barely covered by his opponent. The news was good for Giannelli, though; his had Markovits' dominated.
Things went south in a hurry for the Tortuga, though. A nine flopped and another nine rivered, and the board has put an end to Giannelli's day. It was another valiant run — and it didn't end with an LAPT bubble this time — but he's been sent off in 13th place with a consolation prize of 15,810 Reais.
