HomeMauro De Marco of Australia was the next one to fall despite having an above average chip stack. Action at his table began with De Marco raising to 35K, re-popped to 86K by Marc Rivera, then shove shove boom, it was a showdown:
De Marco: K♠ K♥
Rivera: A♣ A♠
Board ran 7♦ 10♥ 3♥ Q♣ 2♠, and with disbelief, De Marco left the Main Event in 41st place. He collects P65,000 for his finish. Rivera is now above 600K chips.
