Cristiano Guerra Eliminated in 22nd Place (€19,000)

Kevin MacPhee raised to 52,000 from early position, and Jan Bendik three-bet to 155,000 right next door. When the action came around to Cristiano Guerra, he made another raise -- all in for 724,000. That folded MacPhee out of the way with some hesitation, and Bendik thought it over for a long while before announcing the call.

Showdown
Bendik: {A-Clubs} {K-Clubs}
Guerra: {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Spades}

The {8-Diamonds} {6-Spades} {K-Diamonds} flop was a disaster for Guerra, and the turn {7-Hearts} left him dead to two outs. He could not find a queen on the {9-Hearts} river, and we've lost another player. It's Guerra fallin gin 22nd place, and he'll walk home with €19,000 jingling in his pocket. Not too shabby.
