Mon 27 Mayā20:00 - Final Table Bubble after the break!
After a 15-minute break, the last ten players are battling on two tables. Just before the last break, Antonio Fragale (pic above) took the lead, eliminating Dennis Jung: We were at 250K/500K blinds, ante 500K, and Antonio 3-bet from the SB Jung's open from BTN. BB folded, and Jung 4-bet shoved, finding the snap-call from Fragale, who flipped Q-Q against K-9.
The board didn't help Jung, who busted in 11th place, leaving a huge chip that led to Antonio in one of the most crucial phases of the tournament. Here's the stack situation at ten players left; below are the last eliminations.
