Flush Over Set Eliminates Palvini
Jeremy Palvini raised from under the gun to 65,000 and saw Marian Virlanuta three-bet from two seats along to 165,000. Sergi Escote, who just the hand before had lost a big pot to Virlanuta, moved all in for 900,000 from the next seat. The action folded back around to Palvini, and he called for his last 650,000.
Virlanuta went into the tank and was unsure of what to do before he very reluctantly folded before Palvini and Escote revealed their hands.
Jeremy Palvini: 
Sergi Escote: 
Board: 
Palvini was in a horrible spot when he saw his pocket kings run into pocket aces but immediately got joy on the flop when he hit one of his two immediate outs for top set. However, Escote picked up the nut flush draw in the process and fist punched the air when the turn hit to put him back in the lead, and the fifth spade of the river cemented the pot in his favor.
Palvini disappointedly walked away from the table but collects €8,100 for his efforts.
