Brandon Lombardo Eliminated in 2nd Place ($135,074)

Brandon Lombardo raised to 700,000 on the button and Landon Tice defended in the big blind. The flop dropped and both players checked.

The turn came and Tice checked to Lombardo again. Lombardo bet 1.1 million and Tice called, bringing the river where Tice checked again and Lombardo fired out another 1.1 million.

"All in," responded Tice after some time. Lombardo went deep into the tank and eventually found a call.

Brandon Lombardo:

Tice had check-raised all in on the river and gotten his entire stack in and doubled after hitting two pair, taking a commanding lead and leaving Lombardo with just 2.4 million, which was committed and lost a couple of hands later after shoving with ten-nine into Tice's queen-nine to result in his second-place finish for $135,074.

Meanwile, Landon Tice has won the MSPT Venetian $1,100 Main Event for $201,529. Stay tuned for a tournament recap.
