In what was a turbulent few minutes at the final table, Alessandro Spina lost a huge pot, span has stack back up multiple times only to go on to bust the tournament. Here's how it all went down...
Alessandro Spina raised to 160,000 from the hijack and Dominik Nitsche called in the big blind.
The flop came 2?K?4?. Nitsche checked and Spina bet 120,000, which Nitsche called. The turn was the 6?. Nitsche checked again and Spina bet 210,000. Nitsche then moved all in and Spina made the call for his remaining 1,100,000.
Alessandro Spina: K?10?
Dominik Nitsche: 6?4?
Spina had a pair of kings and Nitsche had two pair, sixes and fours. The river came the 8? and Nitsche held to win the pot. Spina had stood up to leave as the chip counts were close, but he was left with 120,000 behind.
Spina then shoved all in from under the gun for his remaining chips and was called by Nitsche. Spina had Q?2? and Nitsche had K?Q?. The board ran out J?9?K?5?10?. Nitsche made a pair of kings on the flop, but Spina hit the runner-runner flush to double his stack.
Spina was back up to 250,000 but with just a few big blinds he was still firmly in the danger zone. He shoved again from the button and was called by Benjamin Spragg in the big blind. Spraggy showed A?4? and Spina flipped over K?K?. He held with pocket kings to double up once more to around 500,000.
The following hand, Spina made yet another shove, this time from the hijack. He was called by Adam McKola on the button and players flipped their cards.
Alessandro Spina: A?10?
Adam McKola: J?J?
The board ran out J?8?7?Q?4?. McKola made a set of jacks on the flop and held to win the pot. Spina's run of spin-ups was over. He was eliminated from the tournament in fifth place for ￡17,820.
