Manelic Minaya Eliminated in 4th Place ($134,075)

Kai Cocklin

Level 35 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Paul Runge opened from under the gun to 1,100,000 and Manelic Minaya called from the big blind.

On the flop of K♥4♦7♥, Minaya checked, Runge bet 1,000,000, Minaya shoved for 4,500,000, and Runge snap-called,

Manelic Minaya: K♦8♦ All in
Paul Runge: K♠K♣

Runge had flopped top set which crushed the top pair of Minaya, whose only hope was his backdoor draws. Minaya did hit the perfect turn card as the 6♦ improved him to both straight and flush draws, which gave him the chance he needed to survive. Unfortunately for Minaya, the 2♠ river was a brick meaning he was eliminated in fourth.
