Big Slick Seals Rocco's Fate

Marco Lang opened from middle position for 3,000 and received a call from Martin Green in the cutoff. Michael Rocco then moved all in from the small blind for around 35,000. Lang pushed all in over the top, which prompted Green to fold.

Lang: {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Rocco: {A-Hearts}{K-Spades}

It was a flip for a big pot and Rocco's tournament life. The {5-Clubs}{4-Spades}{8-Clubs} flop kept Lang in the lead, as did the {2-} turn. Rocco began calling for a king on the river, but it was not meant to be as the {7-} peeled off.
