Michele Di Lauro Delivers a Near Fatal Blow to Uspenskiy
Steve Billirakis raises to 12,000 in early position and Michele Di Lauro calls a few seats to his left. The action folds around to Konstantin Uspenskiy on the button and he three-bets to 57,000 and both players call.
Flop: 
Billirakis and Di Lauro check to Uspenskiy who bets pot. Before the dealer can announce how much that is, Billirakis has folded and Di Lauro has moved all-in for 205,000 and Uspenskiy calls.

Turn: 
& River: 
Di Lauro has won the pot but nobody is sure if Uspenskiy has been eliminated or not. After a tense few minutes the dealer hand Uspenskiy 28,000 back and he still has a slim chance in this tournament.
