Roman Stoica Eliminated in 11th Place ($12,470)
Level 25
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Renan Bruschi raised to 125,000 in the cutoff and Roman Stoica called in the big blind.
The flop came 9♣5♣2♦ and Bruschi bet 110,000. Stoica used a time bank before moving all in for 1,050,000, and Bruschi called.
Roman Stoica: K♥9♦
Renan Bruschi: A♣10♣
Stoica was ahead with top pair, while Bruschi was on a flush draw. The 9♠ turn improved Stoica to trips, but Bruschi spiked the 7♣ on the river to complete his flush and send Stoica to the rail.
Bruschi, who had been nursing a short stack most of the day and has been all in for his tournament life on numerous occasions, took the chip lead with that pot.
