Just one hand after Mark Salinaro made his exit, Mike Ciotola got his stack in the middle against Travis Johnson.

Ciotola raised to 325,000 from the small blind and Johnson shoved from the big blind. Ciotola called and the hands were opened.

Ciotola - {K-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Johnson - {A-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}

A flop of {3-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} kept Johnson in the lead and the {A-Clubs} on the turn put the hand away. When the {6-Diamonds} fell on the river, Ciotola walked away in third spot with $273,385 and we went to heads-up play.

In the end, it was a blind vs. blind battle that did Mark Salinaro in.

Steve Karp limped from the small blind and Salinaro shoved from the big blind. When Karp called, they opened their hands and we started racing.

Salinaro {7-Spades}{7-Clubs}
Karp {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}

A king in the door gave Karp the lead, and Salinaro could never catch up. At the end, the board read {K-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{8-Spades}{3-Diamonds}.

Karp now has more than 4 million chips while Salinaro goes home with $193,343.

Johnson Takes Another

Travis Johnson raised 125,000 from the small blind and got called by Steve Karp in the big blind.

Karp then check-called Johnson's 125,000 bet on a flop of {A-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{3-Spades}, and both players checked the {K-Clubs} on the turn.

Johnson led out for 500,000 when the {10-Spades} spiked on the river, and Karp folded. The hand added another 375,000 to Johnson's stack.

Ciotola Under Pressure Again

The action folded to Mark Salinaro in the small blind who completed with Mike Ciotola checking his option in the big blind.

Flop: {6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

Salinaro checked over to Ciotola who fired out 400,000. Salinaro then check-raised all in over the top for an additional 1,330,000, to send his opponent into the tank.

Ciotola eyed his opponent up and down before flashing the {K-Hearts}{6-Spades} and tossing them into the muck.
