Massimiliano Trifoglio Eliminated in 20th Place (€26,300)

[user38449]

With the betting folded around to him in late position, Massimiliano Trifoglio opted to move all in for his remaining 155,000 chips. The table quickly folded to the big blind, where the table bully Constant Rijkenberg asked for a count. After being satisfied with the number, he said, "Okay, I want to gamble. I call."

Showdown:
Trifoglio: {A-Spades}

Rijkenberg: {K-Diamonds}

The flop was just another in a long line of dramatic all-in flops. It came {4-Diamonds}

, pairing Trifoglio but giving his opponent the nut flush draw. Still about a coinflip, the two players saw fourth street bring the {7-Clubs}

, another sweat card for the at-risk player. Sure enough, the {10-Diamonds}

peeled off on the river, locking up the pot for Rijkenberg with the big diamond flush. He has eliminated Massimiliano Trifoglio in 20th place, moving us ever closer to the final two tables.
