Gerard Pique Eliminated in 6th Place (€60,000)
Level 18
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Action folded to Tsugunari Toma who bet enough to put Gerard Pique all in. "Alright, I call," Pique said as he sticked in his last 220,000.
Gerard Pique: A♠J♠
Tsugunari Toma: 10♠4♦
Pique hit a pair on the Q♣K♠J♥ flop, but Toma picked up a straight draw. The 8♠ turn took away some of Toma's outs as Pique now had the nut flush draw.
The A♣ fell on the river and the entire table let out a collective gasp as Toma made his straight to send the soccer legend to the rail.
The remaining five players are now bagging up for the night.
