Sam Benoliel Eliminated in 15th Place (�20,100)
Level 29
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Marco Regonaschi had jammed his 1,400,000 stack all in from the cutoff and received a call from Sam Benoliel on the button. Benoliel played less as he had only 950,000 chips in his stack. The rest of the table got out of the way and their holdings were revealed.
Sam Benoliel: J?J?
Marco Regonaschi: A?Q?
A very big flip for both players and Regonaschi took a commanding lead on the Q?7?9? flop. Benoliel shook his head while the 8? and 6? were put out to complete the board, while Regonaschi let out a few cheers.
Benoliel had to leave the tournament room and Regonaschi almost doubled his stack at the final two tables of the �2,200 FPS High Roller.
