Just a few hands after eliminating Victor Bershinsky (5?5?>A?K?), John Ciccarelli raised to approximately 1,000,000 after Sebastien Comel's open. When the other players folded, Comel moved all-in and got called immediately.
Sebastien Comel: A?A?
John Ciccarelli: A?K?
Comel had the perfect opportunity to join the chipleaders' group. And it started well for him, with a 5?J?K? flop. But the 6? came on the turn, followed by the 7?, which completed Ciccarelli's flush.
Very disappointed, Comel looked in the air for a few seconds before leaving the area.
Up to 8,000,000 chips, Ciccarelli held the chip lead only a few minutes because on the next hand, it was his turn to run into a flush. In a developed pot, he lost against Koray Aldemir's K?8? on 9?7?6?10?J?. Both players now have around 5,500,000 chips.
