Final Table Action

A few hands later Michael “MMenz08816” Menzer was all in with pocket eights and called by Dibello with ace-jack. The flop gave Dibello the nut flush and Menzer was eliminated in seventh place. Nick “NickyP1010” Palma called the shove from Michael “BrockLesnar” Holtz and hit the rail in sixth when his eight-six fell to the ace-eight for Holtz.

Shortly after Sergei “Copone” Kislinskii moved all in with pocket jacks and was snap-called by Dibello with queens. The board didn’t improve Kislinskii and they were eliminated in fifth place. Holtz found king-eight with a short-stack and moved all in. Dibello made the call with ace-six and when the board ran out ace-high Holtz was eliminated in fourth place.

Three-handed play didn’t last long before “Buckets99” moved in with king-jack and had to face the flip for Dibello with pocket nines. The board ran out no help to “Buckets99” and they were out in third place.

Heads-up started with Dibello having an overwhelming lead on Volosevich and the chips found the middle early on.
