      Shailesh Patel opened the action raising it up from 20,000 to 60,000 and it folder around to Bill Kontaratos in the big blind who decided to protect his blind and make the call. The flop came 7 of Diamonds 3 of Diamonds 7 of Clubs and Kontaratos checked, followed by a continuation bet of 80,000 by Patel. Kontaratos gave it some thought before min-raising to 160,000. Patel right away moved all in and Kontaratos instantly called. The hands were opened:

      Patel: King of Diamonds King of Clubs
      Kontaratos: 8 of Spades 7 of Spades

      Patel had the goods pre-flop but Kontaratos smashed the flop making trip sevens. The turn was the 3 of Clubs and the river was the 3 of Hearts and Patel was eliminated, bringing the tournament to hand-for-hand play as only 12 players remain.
