Goncalves Eliminates D'Alessandro

Level 13 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

David D'Alessandro opened to 5,000 from middle position and Mathieu Goncalves three-bet to 12,000 from the button. D'Alessandro called.

D'Alessandro led out for 11,000 on the 10?Q?8? flop, which Goncalves called.

The turn came the 3?. D'Alessandro bet 14,000 and Goncalves called.

D'Alessandro checked when the 10? came on the river and faced a bet of 25,000 by Goncalves. After a few moments, D'Alessandro shoved for roughly 55,000 and Goncalves snap-called.

D'Alessandro flipped over A?Q? for two pair, queens and tens, but it was second best to the full house of Goncalves with Q?Q?. After the chips were counted it was confirmed that D'Alessandro was out of tournament.

Frederic Blehaut didn't seem pleased after losing a flip against Jerry Odeen for his tournament life.

Frederic Blehaut: 8?8? All in
Jerry Odeen: K?J?

Everything was going swimmingly for Blehaut on the 5?9?Q?2? board, but the 10? on the river gave Odeen the nuts, much to the dismay of Blehaut.
