Anthony Zinno Doubles Thru Gergo Kovacs; Kovacs Out Next Hand

Gergo Kovacs raises from the hijack, WPT Champions Club member Anthony Zinno reraises from the button to 6,000, and Kovacs moves all in, and Zinno calls all in for 47,600 with [JcJd]. Kovacs turns over [5c5h], and Zinno will need his pocket jacks to hold to stay alive.

The board comes [Jh10d9cJs2s], and Zinno makes unnecessary quad jacks to win the pot and double up in chips. Kovacs is cripplied down to just two big blinds.

Anthony Zinno  –  101,000  (101 bb)
Gergo Kovacs  –  2,100  (2 bb)

The next hand, Robert Giordano limps under the gun for 1,000, Gergo Kovacs moves all in from middle position for 2,000, and Thomas Laviano calls from the big blind. Giordano then limp-raises to an unknown amount, and Laviano folds.

Kovacs shows [Jc10s], but Giordano turns over [Ac4c], and Kovacs will need to improve to stay alive.

The board comes [Ah9s6s3s10d], and Kovacs turns a spade flush draw, but misses. Giordano wins the pot with a pair of aces to eliminate Kovacs from the tournament.

Robert Giordano  –  85,000
Gergo Kovacs  –  Eliminated
