Dario Sammartino Eliminated in 2nd Place ($6,000,000)
Level 43
: 2,000,000/4,000,000, 4,000,000 ante
Hand #301: Hossein Ensan raised to 11,000,000 on the button and Dario Sammartino came along out of the big blind.
The flop came 
and Sammartino check-called a bet of 15,000,000.
Both rails fell silent on the 
turn and Sammartino checked once more. Ensan now fired a second barrel of 33,000,000 and Sammartino pushed all in for 140,000,000 and Ensan snap-called.
Dario Sammartino: 
Hossein Ensan: 
The combo draw of Sammartino had plenty of outs to turn around the 2-1 chip deficit, however, the 
on the river was not what he was looking for. Sammartino's Main Event run came to an end in second place and missed out on the maiden bracelet but takes home $6,000,000 for his efforts.
