Dante Maino opened to 1,600 in early position and a player called before Satine Romuald three-bet to 10,000 in the cutoff. Maino responded with a four-bet jam and the player in between folded before Romuald called with a bigger stack.

Dante Maino: 9?9?
Satine Romuald: A?Q?

Romuald took a big lead on the flop of 8?Q?2? and Maino couldn't pull ahead as the board finished out J?8? to mark his elimination.

Weinberg Wins the Battle of the Blinds

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Cedric Weinberg limped in from the small blind and Abel Martinez checked his option in the big.

Heads up to a flop that came A?K?4?. Weinberg took the lead for 600 and Martinez made the call.

The Q? turned and Weinberg continued for an additional 1,400. Martinez was undeterred.

The 10? fell on the river and Weinberg bet 7,000, enough to put Martinez all in. Martinez remained in the tank for some time before calling off the bet for his tournament life.

Weinberg tabled J?3? for the nut straight while Martinez was sent to the rail as he held A?7?.
