Michael Santoro Out in 37th Place ($13,125)

Jan 30, 2014

Jared Jaffee raises UTG+1 to 44,000, Chris Reslock calls from the cutoff, and Michael Santoro calls from the big blind.

The flop comes [Jc5h3s], and Santoro checks. Jaffee bets 82,000, and Reslock folds. Santoro check-raises all in for 377,000, and Jaffee calls with [AcAh] for an overpair. Santoro turns over [Jh4h] for a pair of jacks, and he’ll need to improve to stay alive.

The turn is the [5d], the river is the [2s], and Jaffee wins the pot with two pair, aces and fives, to eliminate Santoro from the tournament.

Jared Jaffee  –  2,340,000  (117 bb)
Michael Santoro  –  Out in 37th Place  ($13,125)

With 36 players remaining, TD Tab Duchateau calls an end to Day 3 since it’s well after 2:00 am. Action will resume tomorrow (Thursday) at 12:00 noon, down in the Borgata Poker Room.
