Here is Lenny Cortellino’s elimination hand — better late than never.
Steve Sung (who has since been eliminated) raised from the cutoff to 26,000, Lenny Cortellino called from the small blind, David Tran reraised from the big blind to 66,000, Steve Sung called, Cortellino moved all in for 315,000, Tran called, and Sung folded, saying he had pocket jacks.
Cortellino showed [KcKh], but he needed to improve to stay alive. The board came [AdKs10h8hJs], and both players flopped a set. Sung would have rivered a set. But in the end, the best hand held up, and David Tran increased his stack to about 935,000.
Lenny Cortellino was eliminated in 48th place, earning $14,754.
