Carmelo Donato Eliminated in 19th Place (€39,950)
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Carmelo Donato made it 100,000 to go from middle position and Siarhei Alontsau defended from the big blind.
They saw a flop of Q♥8♣7♦ where Alontsau checked, and Donato bet 110,000. Alontsau called.
A 7♠ paired the board on the turn and after Alontsau checked, Donato fired 225,000. Alontsau instantly moved all in, and Donato was put to the test for his remaining stack of 425,000. After thinking for some time, Donato called.
Carmelo Donato: K♥Q♠ 
Siarhei Alontsau: 10♥7♣
The disappointment in Donato's body language was obvious, but there was still one card to come. Only a queen would save Donato, but it turned out not to be third time lucky as the 3♣ completed the board, which meant he was out in 19th.
