The cutoff is all in preflop for 5,000 from the cutoff, and Julian Ippolito calls to cover him from the small blind. The big blind calls as well, and then the two live players check down a board dealt Jc6c3c6d2s.
Ippolito then flips over AhJs, and that is enough to top the KdJd held by the cutoff who is eliminated from the tournament. The big blind folds his cards, and Ippolito stacks up 28,000 after the hand.
Julian Ippolito – 28,000 (35 bb)
