Hand #79 - Amato Galasso has the button, he raises, and Rodman calls. The flop comes {8-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{2-Hearts}, and both players check. The turn card is the {10-Diamonds}, Galasso bets, and Rodman calls. The river card pairs the board with the {10-Spades}, Galasso bets, and Rodman thinks for nearly a minute before he calls with {A-Spades}{2-Spades} for two pair, tens and deuces, with an ace kicker. Galasso mucks, and the holecams reveal that he held {A-Diamonds}{6-Spades}.

There is a 15-minute break before heads-up play begins. Coincidentally, Klein Kim Bach was eliminated on the last hand of that level, and when play resumes, the blinds will increase to 40,000-80,000, with a 10,000 ante.

Here are the official chip counts:

Blair Rodman - 5,550,000
Amato Galasso - 2,600,000
