Antonio Buonanno Out in 9th Place ($30,000)

The Day 2 & 3 chip leader will not be carrying that record through to the final table after being thrust onto a spike by Ori Miller, and impaled by Igor Devkin.

Alexander Nudin opens to 60,000, in first position, Ori Miller flats in midfield, before Antonio Buonanno three-bets to 200,000 from the hijack seat. Nudin folds, Miller moves all-in for over a million chips and Buonanno snap called.

Showdown

Miller: [Kh] [Kc]
Buonanno: [Jd] [Js]

Miller had Buonanno crushed, and it would get worse after the [Ks] [Th] [5d] flop gave Miller top set. The [7s] & [Qd] finished off the action and Buonanno was left with a paltry 40,000; Miller was up to 2,270,000.

Buonanno paid his ante, but then folded the next hand, before he moved all-in for 30,000 from mid position. Igor Devkin raised to 70,000 and nobody else wanted a piece of the action.

Showdown

Devkin: [Ah] [Ac]
Buonanno: [Qh] [7h]

Buonanno’s great run comes to an end in ninth place.

Devkin ~ 800,000
