Martiradonna Doubles Through The Chip Leader
The preflop action eluded us, but we do know that Mariano Martiradonna ended up all in for 140,500 and at risk against chip leader Iosif Beskrovnyy.
Showdown
Martiradonna:
Beskrovnyy:
While Martiradonna was racing for his tournament life, Beskrovnyy was looking to become the first person over the million-chip mark. The flop was kind to Martiradonna as it paired his jack to give him the lead. The turn left Beskrovnyy in need of an eight on the river, but it was not meant to be as the peeled off.
Martiradonna celebrated with a subdued fist pump while Beskrovnyy got busy counting out chips.
