Alexander Tumay Eliminated in 19th Place ($7,400)

Level 27 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Alexander Tumay
Alexander Tumay

Alexander Tumay was down to just over an ante and was all in as he posted the big blind. Nathan Cho opened from under the gun and everyone else folded to get the hand heads-up.

Alexander Tumay: {4-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}
Nathan Cho: {a-Hearts}{8-Spades}

Tumay managed to stay alive as the board ran out {9-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Spades}{k-Hearts} to give him the best hand. The next hand, Christine Familetti raised to 150,000 from the cutoff and Tumay moved in from the small blind with much less, while Cho called from the big blind.

Cho checked on the flop of {10-Clubs}{2-Spades}{a-Clubs} and Familetti moved all in. Cho folded.

Alexander Tumay: {9-Clubs}{2-Clubs}
Christine Familetti: {a-Spades}{6-Hearts}

"I have outs!" Tuma said as he revealed a pair and flush draw before the board ran out {k-Hearts}{5-Hearts} to mark his elimination. "I no longer have outs."

The board ran out {7-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{9-Spades}{j-Spades}{10-Diamonds} and Rossitto doubled.

Gerard Petrocelli Eliminated in 21st Place ($7,400)

Level 26 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Gerard Petrocelli
Gerard Petrocelli

Gerard Petrocelli open-shoved from under the gun and Alexander Tumay re-shoved from the next seat with 685,000, slightly having Petrocelli covered. Baruch Forst called in the big blind with both players covered.

Gerard Petrocelli: {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Alexander Tumay: {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}
Baruch Forst: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}

The flop landed {7-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{q-Spades} to give Petrocelli the lead with a pair of jacks and the {j-Hearts} on the turn only improved his hand. "Ten!" yelled Forst without realizing such a card would give Petrocelli a full house.

But it was Tumay who made the full house as the river brought the {6-Clubs} to give him sixes full of jacks and to send Petrocelli out in excruciating fashion.

"Holy shit! This is crazy," Nathan Cho reacted in real time.

"That's the way to go out, boys," Petrocelli said stoically.
