Bruno Politano Eliminated

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Bruno Politano

The cards of Bruno Politano were already rushed away, and the stack of Peter Zolnai was counted with the board showing {10-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{7-Spades}. Zolnai's {9-Spades}{8-Spades} for eights and sevens were still on the table, and his double for 152,500 left Politano with less than one big blind.

According to players at the table, it was a four-bet pot, with Politano squeezing to 57,000 in the cutoff and Zolnai calling on the button before the Brazilian bet the ten-high flop for 80,000. Zolnai moved all in, and Politano called with ace-king.

Politano doubled the next hand with {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds} versus {J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} before doing so again with {K-Hearts}{7-Hearts} versus {A-Clubs}{6-Hearts}. But ultimately, the third time was no charm for the 888poker Ambassador, and his chip-and-a-chair story ended before the dinner break.
