Cornelis de Jong

Cornelis de Jong raised to 425,000 with the {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} and Gabriele Rossi called with the {5-Clubs}{3-Clubs}. The flop brought {4-Spades}{3-Spades}{3-Hearts} to give Rossi trips and he checked.

What followed was the shove of de Jong for 3,300,000 and Rossi double-checked his cards to make sure he indeed had it, snap-called right awaqy.

De Jong needed running aces or running jacks, but the miracle never happened on the {a-Spades} turn and {6-Spades} river run out. The Dutchman, who qualified online on 888poker, will take home �80,000 for his efforts and plenty of stories to tell.

Rossi follows into the footsteps of 2017 champion Luigi Shehadeh, who was railing the final table, and has become the latest 888poker LIVE Main Event champion! A recap of today's action is to follow.
