Giovanni Rizzo is Out

We have just caught up with Giovanni Rizzo and he was not sitting in the tournament area. A terrible run of fortunate ending his tournament very early indeed. Rizzo told us that he was holding [Qc] [Jc] on a [Tx] [8x] [3x] [9x] (2 x hearts and 2 x club board) when his opponent shoved on the turn. He called and his opponent showed [Qh] [9h] and hit the [4h] on the river. He then lost set over set: pocket threes versus pocket nines on a [9x] [6x] [3x] board, then he lost ace-king on a [Ax] [9x] [6s] [Ax] [Tx] to [8x] [7x].

Now that’s what you call a bad day at the office.
