Joe Ghio Eliminated in 19th Place ($345,000)
Level 35
: Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
Joe Ghio moved all in for 11,700,000 from early position and Juan Maceiras Lapido tanked for a moment before calling in the cutoff. The rest of the table got out of the way.
Joe Ghio: K♣Q♠
Juan Maceiras Lapido: Q♥Q♣
Ghio was looking for a king to keep his Main Event hopes alive but none arrived on the 3♥4♦9♠ flop. Maceiras Lapido spiked the last queen in the deck on the Q♦ turn and Ghio was already drawing dead by the J♣ river, sending him to the rail in 19th place.
The remaining 18 players are now taking a short break while they redraw for seats at the final two tables.
