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: {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}
Joldis: {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}

The flop had a bit of a sweat in it when it came {10-Spades}{9-Spades}{6-Clubs}, giving Joldis an inside straight draw. Luske faded the turn when it came {A-Clubs} and he faded the river as well as the {Q-Hearts} fell.

That earned Luske the pot as Joldis was eliminated from the tournament in 50th place, collecting $145,733 for his efforts.
