Justus Held Eliminated in 26th Place ($5,815)
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Abdullah Alajmi again limped in and Ermanno Di Nicola raised to 140,000 in middle position. Justus Held called in the cutoff, while Alajmi also called.
The flop came 8?K?K? and Di Nicola bet 130,000. Held called, but Alajmi raised to 475,000.
Di Nicola folded and Held called to see the 6? turn. Alajmi then bet 600,000, Held moved all in for 700,000, and Alajmi snap-called with K?8? for a flopped full house.
Held showed K?Q? and couldn't find any help on the 5? river as he was eliminated in 26th place.
"It's your tournament, my friend. Running unbelievable," Di Nicola told Alajmi.
