We're not sure of when the chips went in (we think it was on the flop), but we do know that Michael Shklover was eliminated by Attilio Donato — on the river nonetheless.
Shklover held the on a board reading , but it was no good as Donato had rivered a straight with the .
"River, river," Donato said in his heavy Italian accent.
John Patgorski opened for 3,500 and received a call from the player on the button. A short-stacked Jascha Levy then three-bet all in for 10,800 from the big blind. Patgorski responded with a four-bet, and that inspired the button to get out of the way.
Patgorski:
Levy:
"Good hand, you win," Levy said upon seeing his opponent's cards.
"Anything can happen in Omaha," Patgorski replied. That's certainly true, and Levy learned this when the flop came down to give him the lead with a set of tens. Neither the turn nor river helped Patgorski, and he sent a few of his chips across the table.
Jason Somerville limped in for 1,600 and Christian Harder raised to 4,500 with Ismael Bojang calling from the big blind. Somerville committed his final 2,600 total and the dealer fanned a flop.
Both active players checked before Bojang announced a bet of pot when the turn landed the . Harder folded and the cards were tabled.

Bojang:
The river landed the repeating and Somerville hit the rail as Bojang climbed to over 40,000 in chips.
We noticed the seat formerly occupied by Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi was empty, and a quick check around the room confirmed that he was nowhere to be found.
We may have missed his elimination, but it appears his stack — which was six-figures at the start of the day — went to Kory Kilpatrick, who is now sitting on a big stack of 340,000!
With around 20,000 in the pot and a board reading , Kory Kilpatrick bet 14,000 from the small blind and Attilio Donato made a quick called from the big.
When the completed the board on the river, Kilpatrick bet 33,000 and Donato snap-called. Kilpatrick rolled over the for a full house, and Donato simply said, "Unbelievable."
Donato then showed the for a flopped two pair. Kilpatrick was quick to defend himself by pointing out that he also had a heart draw.
