Umberto Ruggeri Eliminated in 11th Place (€81,600)
Jaehyung Park made it 160,000 from the hijack and Tjenno Eskes called on the button. Umberto Ruggeri had 650,000 in his stack in the small blind and instantly moved all in. When it got back to Park, he elected to fold, and Eskes dropped in the call, which put Ruggeri at risk.
Umberto Ruggeri: J♥J♠
Tjenno Eskes: Q♦J♦
Ruggeri had found a premium at the right time, but needed to sweat a runout first before he could celebrate. A flop of 10♥8♥6♦ kept his pocket jacks in the lead, but Eskes did add a gutshot to his outs list. One of those outs arrived on the 9♥ turn as Eskes improved to a straight, which meant Ruggeri was drawing to a chop. Only a queen could keep him alive, but the 2♠ river wasn't what he needed, and Ruggeri was out in eleventh.
