Riccardo Marchini raises to 10,000 and Roberto Romanello moves all-in for 120,000. Romanello was still a little red around the face from his hand against Piazza when Marchini calls.

Romanello: A K
Marchini: T T

It is Romanello who is at risk of elimination and when the Q J 3 hits the flop he is two cards away from that very event happening. The turn of T changes everything though and Marchini is looking for a board pairing on the river or he is going to be in serious trouble. The river is the 7 and Romanello doubles through to 260,000 and Marchini now has 16,500 and is in the big blind the following hand.
