Paolo Compagno Eliminated in 8th Place ($24,219)
Level 25
Stud-8:
Adam Friedman: ()() - - ()
Paolo Compagno: ()() - - ()
After a bet by Friedman on third street, Compagno raised and put himself all in for his last 84,000. With just a pair of fives, the Italian found himself trailing Friedman's pair of sevens and would need to catch some cards in order to survive. Unfortunately for Compagno, the dealer delivered four consecutive bricks and Friedman took the pot down with an unimproved pair of sevens.
Paolo Compagno finished in eighth place and will take home $24,219 for his run to the final table.
