Lazzaretto (Re)sucks Out to End Dupre's Run
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Julien Dupre opened to 30,000 on the button and Filippo Lazzaretto shoved from the big blind. Dupre tanked a bit, but eventually committed his stack worth about 300,000 into the middle.
Julien Dupre: A♣8♦
Filippo Lazzaretto: K♦Q♣
The K♣6♦J♠ flop paired Lazzaretto's king to give him a commanding lead, but the A♠ fell on the turn to pull Dupre back ahead.
It wasn't over, however, as the 10♦ river upgraded Lazzaretto to Broadway to eliminate Dupre from the tournament in dramatic fashion.
Moments later, PokerStars Ambassador Benjamin "Benny" Bruneteaux was eliminated as well.
