Big Slick Helps Criado Eliminate Laterza
Level 15
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Jose Criado opened to 9,000 from middle position and Mario Laterza shoved for 74,000 from the small blind. Once the big blind folded, Criado made the call.
Mario Laterza: A♦J♠ 
Jose Criado: A♥K♥
These two had player a pot earlier on in the flight which Laterza won but now the Italian player was on the brink of elimination. Criado pushed his opponent closer to the edge on the 8♥K♦6♣ flop, and despite Laterza picking up some outs on the Q♣ turn, no help arrived on the 4♣ river.
