Cosmin Joldis Eliminated in 50th Place ($145,733)
Marcel Luske has been chipping up nicely since moving to the secondary feature table and donning a pair of sunglasses borrowed from Brian Piccioli. In one hand, he made a straight to win a small pot against David Guay, then immediately after picked up aces on the button and took down the blinds and antes.
"Must be the glasses," Piccioli joked with Luske.
Just a few hands later, Cosmin Joldis moved all in from early position for roughly 1,800,000. Luske was next to act and he moved all in over the top with a covering stack around 4 million. Action folded around so the two went heads up to a showdown.
Luske: 
Joldis: 
The flop had a bit of a sweat in it when it came 
, giving Joldis an inside straight draw. Luske faded the turn when it came 
and he faded the river as well as the 
fell.
That earned Luske the pot as Joldis was eliminated from the tournament in 50th place, collecting $145,733 for his efforts.
