Ross Rules as Zarco Exits

Level 7 : 1,000/2,000, 200 ante

Javier Zarco is out of the £2,000 High Roller after busting from being all-in pre-flop. He was all-in with {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} and was called by Jason Ross, who flipped over {K-Spades}{K-Clubs} . Zarco stood up.

"That's bad luck, man," quipped Antonio Esfandiari, being massaged to within an inch of consciousness and nudging the chip lead with 230,000 chips.

"I'll wait until the turn." retorted Zarco.

The flop of {9-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{Q-Hearts} gave Zarco additional outs with the pair of queens raising ... false hope. The {K-Hearts} on the turn did make him stand up, but he stayed on his feet through wishing his opponents luck and didn't even see the {5-Diamonds} river hit the felt.

We are down to 21 players, with three more levels to go after this one.
