Three-handed on a board of 3?4?5?5?, Giuseppe Pantaleo got his last chips in the middle from the cutoff and was up against Igor Zektser in early position, while Qinghai Pan got out of the way.

Pantaleo had A?K?4?10?, while Zektser showed A?5?2?9?. The river came the J? and Zektser earned the pot with his trip fives and ace-deuce low as the WSOP bracelet winner was sent to the payout desk.

Petersen Finds a Five

Level 28 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 0 ante

After a prior hand that left Kevin Petersen with just two big blinds, he was able to get it in from the under-the-gun position and get called by Giuseppe Pantaleo as both players headed to a run out.

Kevin Petersen: A?5?5?2?
Giuseppe Pantaleo: J?7?7?6?

The board ran out J?J?10?9? to the river, making it look like Petersen's day was coming to a close, but the 5? spiked on the river and provided Petersen a full double.
