Wagner Ripper Eliminated in 23rd Place (�11,750)
Level 28
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Wagner Ripper open-jammed from middle position for 810,000 and Paolo Boi made the call in the hijack. The rest of the table folded their cards and a showdown was had.
Wagner Ripper: 9?9?
Paolo Boi: A?J?
The flop came down 8?Q?6?. ''Always a sweat,'' commented someone at the table. The K? turn increased the perspiration levels of this hand even more as Boi now had even more outs. He finally hit one when the J? river hit the felt, turning his hand into a pair of jacks, beating Ripper's pair of nines.
Another deep run for Ripper, who could not best his third place in the �2,200 FPS High Roller during EPT Paris.
