Bertu From Hero to Zero

Level 31
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

What started with a button raise by Christian Bertu escalated soon after when Lukas Pazma got involved from the big blind. It was a big flip for the biggest pot of the tournament so far.
Lukas Pazma: J?J?
Christian Bertu: A?K?
The two overcards of Bertu missed on the 5?5?3?8?6? board to send the Italian on a short stack.
Soon after, Bertu was all-in with the A?Q? and looked up by Wladimir Gerner, who revealed the inferior K?J?. On a board of 8?6?3?3?A?, Gerner rivered the higher flush and that brought the field down to the last 24 players.
