Erceg Hits the River to Bust Peciarolo; Jalba Takes a Big One Off Livshitz
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Alessio Peciarolo was all in for 200,000 from the hijack and up against Vladimir Erceg on the button.
Alessio Peciarolo: 10♠10♣ 
Vladimir Erceg: A♠K♥
Peciarolo was ahead through the turn on a board of Q♦2♦9♥9♦, but Erceg spiked the A♥ on the river. "One minute," Peciarolo said as he snapped a photo of the board, followed by some Italian curse words on his way to the exit.
At the same time at another table, Gabi Livshitz and Eusebiu Jalba built a pot of around 400,000 as they went to the river on a board of 2♠9♣Q♣J♦5♥.
Livshitz then bet 375,000 from middle position and Jalba, in the hijack, went into the tank for several minutes. He eventually called with K♦Q♦ for a pair of queens and Livshitz sent king-jack into the muck.
