Alain Saka Eliminated in 2nd Place (€115,000)
Nível 42
: Blinds 800,000/1,600,000, 1,600,000 ante
Ermanno Di Nicola limped in from the button and called when Alain Saka made it 4,000,000 from the big blind.
Saka jammed for 17,000,000 on the 8♦5♦4♦ flop and Di Nicola snap-called as the covering stack.
Alain Saka: A♣Q♦
Ermanno Di Nicola: K♦5♠
Di Nicola was ahead with a pair of fives, while also having a superior flush draw to Saka. The Polish player needed to find a queen or an ace on the turn or river to survive once more.
The 8♣ turn and 4♣ river saw Di Nicola hold out and confirmed him as the winner of this year's Colossus. Di Nicola celebrated with his partner on the rail and shook hands with Saka in a show of good sportsmanship.
